Why Use Sitemap Analytics?

Optimize Crawl Budget

By identifying and removing low-value or deep pages, you ensure Google crawlers spend time on your most important content.

Verify Site Architecture

Ensure your site structure matches your SEO strategy. Key pages should not be more than 3 clicks deep.

Technical Health Check

Quickly spot issues like missing Last Modified dates which are crucial for recrawl frequency.

Metric Definitions

Crawl Depth

Estimated by the number of forward slashes in the URL. A higher count generally suggests a page represents a deeper click path.

Directory Distribution

Shows the percentage of total URLs belonging to each top-level folder (e.g., /blog/ vs /products/).

Change Frequency

Indicates if the <changefreq> tag is present. This hints to crawlers how often content is updated.

Priority

A value from 0.0 to 1.0 indicating relative importance. Consistent use helps bots prioritize better.
