Sitemap XML Scraper Tool – Extract URLs, Titles & Content Fast

The Sitemap XML Scraper is one of the most powerful tools for anyone who needs to collect large amounts of website data quickly and accurately. Whether you are an SEO professional, content creator, digital marketer, or researcher, this tool helps you discover all the sitemaps on a website and extract valuable information in just a few clicks. Best of all, you don’t need any coding skills — everything is handled through a simple, user-friendly interface.

Below is a complete step-by-step guide on how to use the Sitemap XML Scraper effectively.

Step 1 – Get All Sitemaps from a Website

1. Open the Sitemap XML Scraper inside Public Scraper.
2. Paste the main website URL into the input field exactly as it appears in your browser.
3. Click the Get Sitemap button to automatically discover all available sitemap files under that domain (including sitemap.xml, index-sitemap.xml, and nested sitemaps).
4. Right-click on the sitemap list to save all discovered sitemap links into a plain text file for later use and auditing.
5. Left-click any sitemap to open that same sitemap in the built-in URL extractor view within the Sitemap XML Scraper (it stays inside the same tool — not a separate app).

Step 2 – Extract URLs, Titles, Descriptions & Content

1. Pick the sitemap (or nested sitemap) you want to process from the discovered list.
2. Choose how many URLs to process (e.g., scrape all links or set a limit for faster sampling).
3. Enable List Mode if you want to paste multiple sitemap URLs at once — make sure each one ends with .xml.
4. Start extraction to automatically fetch page titles, meta descriptions, and main content (article/product/body text) for every URL found in the sitemap.
5. Use the built-in filters to include/exclude specific patterns before you export.

Step 3 – Keyword Search & Filtering

1. Type a target keyword in the search box to instantly narrow down the results to only matching URLs.
2. Combine keyword filtering with URL limits to build niche datasets (perfect for topical SEO and competitor analysis).
3. Review the live preview of matched URLs, titles, and descriptions before saving your dataset.
4. Refine and repeat as needed to create tightly focused lists for outreach, content planning, or audits.

Step 4 – Save Your Data in Multiple Formats

1. After extraction, right-click anywhere on the results table to open the context menu.
2. Choose Save and select your preferred format: .xlsx, .json, or .csv.
3. Store the file locally or share it with your team for analysis and reporting.
4. Re-run the scraper with different filters or sitemap sets to expand or refine your dataset.

Power Tips for Better Results

1. Start with the root sitemap.xml, then drill into nested sitemaps for news, images, products, or blog posts.
2. Use keyword filters to focus on commercial, informational, or location pages to match your campaign goals.
3. Limit the first run to a smaller sample to validate structure and performance, then scale up.
4. Export to .xlsx for editorial planning, .csv for bulk operations, and .json for developer workflows.
