Find Issues With Your Sitemap

A sitemap with errors sends search engines in the wrong direction. SiteGuru scans your sitemap and flags problems that could prevent your pages from being discovered: incorrect URLs, invalid formats, and entries that don't belong.

You get a clear list of what's wrong so you can fix it quickly and keep your sitemap working as intended.

Optimize Your Sitemap for Maximum Crawling Efficiency

Every unnecessary URL in your sitemap wastes crawl budget. SiteGuru helps you identify redirected pages, non-indexable URLs, and other entries that shouldn't be in your sitemap.

By keeping your sitemap lean and accurate, you help search engines spend their time crawling the pages that actually matter for your rankings.

Check if Your Sitemap Is Submitted to Google Search Console

Having a sitemap is one thing. Making sure Google knows about it is another. SiteGuru checks whether your sitemap has been submitted to Google Search Console and alerts you if it hasn't.

Submitting your sitemap to Search Console helps Google discover new and updated pages faster, so your content gets indexed sooner.

Find Pages Missing From Your Sitemap

If a page isn't in your sitemap, search engines might take longer to find it, or miss it entirely. SiteGuru compares your sitemap against your actual site and shows you which indexable pages are missing.

Adding these pages to your sitemap ensures Google can discover all your important content and index it promptly.
