Sitemap Inspector FAQ
Answers to the most common sitemap comparison questions.
We check /sitemap.xml first. If it is missing, we look for Sitemap directives in robots.txt and validate the first reachable XML sitemap we find.
Missing URLs are internal links discovered during crawl that do not appear in sitemap.xml. These are candidates to add if they should be indexed.
Extra URLs exist in sitemap.xml but were not discovered by the crawler. They may be orphaned pages, redirects, or links hidden from normal navigation.
No. The crawler samples internal links (up to 200) for quick analysis, so use the comparison as a directional signal rather than a full audit.
