Generate a valid XML sitemap entry

For webmasters adding a URL, repairing a sitemap or preparing recently published content for discovery.

Create a complete XML sitemap entry from your page details and receive a valid fragment ready to add to the destination file.

How to use

Enter the full page address, then provide the date you want to show as the last modification.
Choose a change frequency and a relative priority according to the conventions used on your site.
Generate the entry so the tool creates a complete XML fragment ready to reuse.
Copy the fragment into your sitemap file at the correct place among the other entries.
Confirm that the address and date match the published page before uploading the updated file.

Example

For a new page, you supply the example address, the date 2026-08-16, the weekly frequency and the priority 0.8. In the output, check that every value appears in the proper position and that the fragment fits cleanly into your existing sitemap.

Input

https://example.com/page
2026-08-16
weekly
0.8

Output

<url>
  <loc>https://example.com/page</loc>
  <lastmod>2026-08-16</lastmod>
  <changefreq>weekly</changefreq>
  <priority>0.8</priority>
</url>

Limits and formats

The generated fragment must be placed inside a valid XML sitemap file.
The tool does not check whether the URL responds or deserves indexing.
Date, frequency and priority are hints, not commands for search engines.
A badly encoded URL or malformed date can make the fragment unusable.

Where processing happens

The entry is generated in your browser. The URL, date and options remain on your device and are not sent to a remote service.

Frequently asked questions

Which date format should I use?

Use the year-month-day format, such as 2026-08-16. This readable form avoids confusion between days and months and matches common XML sitemap conventions.

Does priority really affect rankings?

It acts as a relative hint for comparing your own pages. Search engines decide crawling and indexing using many other signals, so do not rely on priority alone.

Can I create several entries at once?

This page generates one entry at a time. For multiple pages, repeat the generation process or build a complete sitemap with a tool designed for that larger task.
