Frequently Asked Questions
What does the sitemap validator check?
It verifies the XML is well-formed, the root element is urlset or sitemapindex, every entry has a loc URL, lastmod dates look sane, and the file respects the 50,000 URL and 50MB limits.
Is my sitemap uploaded to a server?
No. Parsing happens entirely in your browser with the built-in DOMParser. Your sitemap content never leaves your device.
