XML Sitemaps

Katrangan

The XML Sitemaps plugin for WordPress will automatically generate XML Sitemaps for your site and notify search engines when they’re updated.

Contrary to other plugins that generate sitemap files, this one will add a rewrite rule and store your cached sitemaps in the wp-content/sitemaps folder.

The XML Sitemaps plugin automatically assigns the rate of updates and the weight based on statistics collected on your site.

Pings occur automatically, on an hourly basis, if the sitemap file is updated.

Lastly, and contrary to the zillions of plugins that try to do the same as this one, this plugin will use the WP internals to determine the number of blog, category and tag pages on your site. This means it’ll play well with the likes of custom query string or Semiologic SEO.

Configuration

Starting with version 2.0 there is now the ability to control the inclusion or exclusion of date archives (years and months), author, category and tags pages in your sitemap.

Additionally specific pages can also be excluded by entering their page IDs.

Go to Settings->XML Sitemaps to update settings.

The Sitemap isn’t getting generated

Actually, it is. But it’s not refreshed each time you save your posts and pages. Doing so would be far too resource intensive on large sites.

It’s generated only when explicitly requested by visiting domain.com/sitemap.xml, which is then cached in a physical file located in the /wp-content/sitemaps folder; until it needs to be refreshed once again.

I tested several XML sitemap versions and they like all want to generate thousands of XML sitemaps. My site is never going to grow so much that a single .xml file wouldn’t be enough (you have plenty of room, really!) One important thing: I went to settings and removed absolutely everything except the “Include Custom Posts”. There is really no need to have archives in there. Google & Co. will find those pages, but they are not worth indexing anyway. As long as all your posts are indexed, you’ll be just fine as far as SEO is concerned. I tested 4 other plugins, this is my favorite so far.

Great stuff — I was encountering a parsing error likely due to an open php tag somewhere in my theme and until I installed XML sitemaps no other sitemap plugins worked. Nice and simple to use and I like the way it stores a physical sitemap in a WP Folder. thx to the author

Works well and the code behind it is simple. I would like to contribute to this plugin. Please contact me about how I can get you my update that adds AMP pages.

Thank you very much. I use it on my site SmartestReviews.com and it really helps me to define priorities and crawling frequency. Great plugin. Can also run with yoast seo. the advantage is that you can define your own priorities and frequency. with yoast sitemap generator you can’t.
