Website page counter

Count the pages on any website, split by section. Enter a site and the counter reads its sitemaps and counts each page once.

How the counter works

It finds the site's sitemaps the way Google does: the Sitemap lines in robots.txt first, then the usual addresses like /sitemap.xml. It reads every sitemap and sitemap index, counts each page address once, and groups the pages by the first folder in their address, so /blog/ and /products/ each get a row.

One count reads up to 50 sitemap files and 50,000 pages. It opens no pages, so it's fast and light on the site.

Why the count can be off

  • Pages missing from the sitemap aren't counted. Some platforms leave out tag pages, search results, or new pages.
  • Old pages still in the sitemap are counted, even when they redirect or return 404.
  • A sitemap that fails to load drops its pages from the count. The result says when that happens.

To check those problems, run the sitemap checker on the same site.

Three other ways to count pages

  1. Search Console. For your own site, the Page indexing report shows how many pages Google indexed and how many it didn't, with a reason for each. This is the number that matters for search traffic.
  2. A site: search. Type site:example.com into Google. It's quick, but Google says the results don't necessarily include every indexed page, and the count is an estimate.
  3. A crawler. Tools like Screaming Frog follow links from page to page and find pages a sitemap leaves out. The free version stops at 500 URLs.

Pages listed vs. pages on Google

Google doesn't index every page it finds. CrawlCoach checks the pages in your sitemap against Google's own URL Inspection data, up to 50,000 URLs per site, and sends a fix list for the ones Google left out. See plans and prices.

Questions

How many pages does my website have?

Enter your site above. The count is the pages your sitemaps list, which is the set you've asked Google to find. To see how many of those are on Google, open Search Console's Page indexing report and read the Indexed number.

Why does a site: search show a different number?

Google says the site: operator doesn't necessarily return every indexed page, and the count it shows is a rough estimate. Use it for a quick look, not a count. Search Console's Page indexing report is the real number for your own site.

Why does Search Console show fewer indexed pages than my sitemap lists?

Google doesn't index every page it finds. The Page indexing report lists each page it left out and the reason, such as Crawled - currently not indexed or Duplicate without user-selected canonical. Each reason has its own fix.

Can I count the pages on a site I don't own?

Yes, when the site publishes a sitemap. Most do, and robots.txt often lists it. Sites without one can only be counted by a crawler that follows links.
