Sitemap discovery and exploration

Discover and Explore Sitemap Structures

Start with a domain or direct XML sitemap URL, follow nested indexes, then review the discovered structure as a sitemap tree or grouped URL paths.

  • Read Sitemap declarations from robots.txt and try /sitemap.xml.
  • Extract page URLs and follow nested indexes to the configured depth.
  • Expand sitemap indexes, child sitemaps and individual URL nodes.
  • Switch to URL Paths to group pages by hostname and path.
  • Open a result and highlight its position in the sitemap tree.
  • Save separate per-domain trees with the project session.

From sitemap to status report

Scan the Discovered Page URLs

Sitemap discovery builds the URL list. Start the scan separately to request those page URLs and review their current HTTP results.

  • Review successful, redirecting, broken and failed page URLs.
  • Compare each discovered page URL with its final destination.
  • Inspect redirect counts and complete redirect chains.
  • Filter problem rows, rescan selected URLs and export CSV results.

Built for Real Sitemap Audits

Build known URL lists from sitemap files, then use the normal scanner to verify the pages they publish.

Nested Sitemap Discovery

Follow child sitemap files and nested indexes within the configured depth and URL limits.

Website Migrations

Import the new sitemap URL list, then scan it for old redirects, broken pages and failed requests.

Generated Sitemap Checks

Rediscover a CMS-generated sitemap after deployment and scan the resulting page URLs again.

How URL Verifier Pro Discovers, Explores and Checks Sitemap URLs

For a domain or site URL, URL Verifier Pro checks robots.txt for Sitemap declarations and also tries the site's /sitemap.xml location. If you already know the XML sitemap address, you can enter it directly instead.

The discovery process extracts loc entries, follows child sitemap indexes in parallel and stops at the maximum URL count or sitemap depth configured in Settings. It reports progress, supports cancellation and removes duplicate page URLs before appending them to the main URL list. It does not crawl page links to find additional URLs.

The discovered structure is also available in Sitemap Explorer. Use the Sitemap Tree view to follow index and child relationships, switch to URL Paths to group pages by hostname and path, or open a URL from the results table to expand and highlight its position. Separate trees are retained for each origin and saved with the session.

Discovery does not scan the extracted pages automatically. After the URLs have been added, start the normal URL scan to record status codes, final URLs, redirect counts, redirect chains and request errors. The resulting rows use the same filters, selected-row rescans and CSV export tools as any other URL list.

For a practical audit workflow, read the guide to finding broken URLs from an XML sitemap.
