Setup WordPress Indexing

Generate Your Sitemap

WordPress makes it simple to create a sitemap for your website. This is possible directly through WordPress or via plugins:

  • WordPress generates a sitemap at your-domain.com/wp-sitemap.xml.
  • If you're using a plugin like Yoast SEO, find your sitemap at a URL similar to your-domain.com/sitemap_index.xml.

Add Your Sitemap to Indexvite

To use Indexvite for indexing your WordPress pages, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to your Indexvite account.
  2. We automatically sync your websites from Google Search Console.
  3. Find your wesite in the list of GSC properties.
  4. Check that your sitemap has been found and synced by clicking on the sitemaps button.
  5. Enable your site by turning the switch "Enabled" to on.

Assuming that you have a sitemap set up properly, Indexvite will automatically begin scanning your website and retrieve all pages.

  1. From your Indexvite dashboard, click on the website you want to index pages for.
