FAQ
XML Sitemap Validator checks an XML Sitemap for validity: whether it is properly formatted and contains the right information. Use it to make sure search engines will accept your sitemap and index the content on your site. It also finds errors and other issues in the Sitemap.
The validator scans your XML Sitemap for errors: broken links, improperly formatted URLs, missing tags, and more. If it finds any, it tells you what needs to be fixed to make the Sitemap valid. Once the Sitemap is valid, upload it to Google Search Console so Google can find and index all the pages on your site.
