At WEBKIH, we believe technology should be simple, powerful, and accessible to everyone. Today, we are excited to share an important milestone in our journey — our second WordPress plugin has officially been published on the WordPress Plugin Directory, and it is completely free for the community.
Our new plugin is called WEBKIH Secure Sitemap Generator, a lightweight and secure XML sitemap solution built for WordPress users who want better control over how their websites are indexed by search engines.
If you run a website, blog, or online platform, you already know how important visibility is. A website that cannot be discovered by search engines is like a library with no catalog. This plugin helps solve that problem in the simplest possible way.
Why We Built This Plugin
Many SEO plugins today try to do everything at once. They are powerful, but they are also heavy. They add dozens of features, complex dashboards, and sometimes slow down websites.
At WEBKIH, we asked a simple question:
What if someone just wants a clean, secure sitemap generator without installing a huge SEO suite?
That question became the foundation of this plugin.
WEBKIH Secure Sitemap Generator focuses on one job — generating a clean XML sitemap for search engines — and doing it efficiently and securely.
What the Plugin Does
The plugin automatically generates an XML sitemap for your website and makes it available at:
yourwebsite.com/sitemap.xml
Search engines such as Google and Bing use this file to understand your site structure and crawl your content more efficiently. (wordpress.org)
Once activated, the plugin continuously keeps your sitemap updated whenever you publish or modify content. (WordPress.org)
Key Features
Here are some of the most useful features included in the first release:
1. Automatic XML Sitemap Generation
The plugin generates a sitemap automatically and updates it whenever new content is published.
2. Support for Multiple Content Types
It includes:
- Posts
- Pages
- Public Custom Post Types
This ensures all important content is discoverable by search engines. (WordPress.org)
3. Exclude Specific Post Types
Administrators can choose which post types should appear in the sitemap and which should be excluded.
4. Control Over Priority and Change Frequency
You can define default priority and change frequency values to guide search engines on how often pages should be crawled.
5. Manual Regeneration
If needed, you can regenerate the sitemap manually from the plugin settings.
6. Search Engine Ping
After regeneration, the plugin can optionally notify search engines so they immediately know about your updated content.
7. Built With WordPress Security Standards
The plugin follows WordPress development best practices and security standards to ensure safe operation. (WordPress.org)
Why a Sitemap Still Matters
Even though modern search engines are smart, a sitemap remains one of the best ways to ensure that every important page on your website gets discovered.
Think of it as giving search engines a map of your digital city. Without the map, crawlers might miss important roads. With the map, they find everything faster.
For websites with many pages, blogs, or custom post types, a sitemap becomes even more important.
Easy Installation
Installing the plugin takes less than a minute:
- Go to Plugins → Add New in your WordPress dashboard
- Search for WEBKIH Secure Sitemap Generator
- Click Install and then Activate
- Open Settings → Sitemap Generator and configure your options
After activation, your sitemap will immediately be available at:
/sitemap.xml
