This guide will help you to download/get all URLs, Titles, and Meta Descriptions from a website.

Why do you need this? Well, you may need this for several purposes:

  • You need the URLs to share on Social media (Facebook/Twitter/Pinterest/etc.), and you want to store all the URLs in one place rather than copying them one by one from the website.
  • With the URLs, you also need the titles to post them on social media platforms.
  • You may post different descriptions than the meta descriptions for the social media platforms. But it is handy if the meta descriptions are with you in one place.

Or, maybe you need this for any other purposes. Let’s see how to get them all in one place.

This is a two-step process. In the first step, you need to extract the URLs from the sitemap. And, in the second step, you can download the Titles and Meta Descriptions using the extracted URLs. Let’s see the steps one by one.
