How to use Sitemap Scraper?

A sitemap is one of the most important factors for ensuring that a page is indexed by Googlebot, along with robots.txt and Google Search Console.

It is recommended that indexable URLs responding with status code 200 should be included in the sitemap.

The status codes of URLs in sitemaps can be determined by crawling tools in bulk. 

Sitemap Scraper, on the other hand, allows you to determine the status codes of URLs in a given sitemap without crawling them.
