Create video sitemap for free

Make your video pages easier to find for search engines. Create an XML video sitemap with preview, checked mandatory fields and download – directly in the browser.

Submitting videos

Entry

Your input remains in the browser. Pages, videos and pictures are not accessed.

Example: Keeping the video page and video file apart

Take the line as CSV. page_url refers to the page where the video is viewed; content_url refers to the actual media file. The addresses serve only as an example.

page_url,thumbnail_url,title,description,content_url,duration
https://example.org/anleitung,https://example.org/vorschau.jpg,Montageanleitung,So wird das Bauteil montiert.,https://example.org/video.mp4,90

Expected result

The result contains 1 page and 1 video. In XML, you can see /instruction as loc, /video.mp4 as video:content_loc and 90 as video:duration. If you set content_url as page_url for test, the tool rejects the input.

What the Example Does Not Prove

A valid sitemap does not confirm that Google can retrieve or index the video. Preview, embedding, access rights and an actual matching video page must be checked separately.

What information is included in a video?

Enter the URL of the page where the video can be viewed, preview image, title and description. Complete a direct video file URL or the URL of the embedded player. The normal YouTube page address is not an embed URL. Multiple videos on the same page are shared.

Using video sitemap

Capture entries or import a CSV file.
Download the XML file and display it on your website as video-sitemap.xml publishing.
Submit the sitemap to Search Console or link to robots.txt.

The tool checks input format and mandatory fields, but not accessibility, video quality or actual indexing. Use information that matches the visible video. Basis: Google Documentary on Video Sitemaps.

Frequent questions

Does it work with YouTube and Vimeo?

Yes. Use the URL of your own video page and the Embed URL as a player URL. The videos do not have to be on your own server.

Which CSV columns are supported?

page_url, thumbnail_url, title, description, content_url, player_url, duration and publication_date. The first four are mandatory; in addition, content_url or player_url is required.

Can a page have multiple videos?

Yes. Repeat the page URL for each video. Identical duplicate entries are summarised, conflicting information is reported.

Is data uploaded?

No. CSV import, XML generation, preview and download run in the browser. Up to 10,000 videos and 4 MB CSV are supported.
