Free image sitemap generator

Free image sitemap generator

There are plenty of sitemap generators on the web today but we couldn't find a decent free image sitemap generator that had a sensible crawl limit (unless you're running Wordpress and using Yoast's SEO plugin). So here it is - the crawl is currently limited to 1,000 pages to prevent too much load on our servers. We hope you find it useful and would welcome any feedback: [email protected].

Notes:

  1. Your image sitemap will appear below once created.
  2. If your site has e.g. 1,000 URLs to crawl, expect to wait a few minutes.
  3. Is the generator not working for you? Try again using the Firefox browser
  4. Instructions on how to save your sitemap are below
  5. Unfortunately I cannot offer support for this free SEO tool

To submit the image sitemap to Google, you'll need to first register for Google Webmaster Tools.

Once you've done that, you'll see the Sitemap section in the dashboard for your site.
