Easy Sitemap Generator

I have replaced the Yoast sitemaps with this simpler sitemap plugin because I wanted control over my sitemap contents.

jaguar54

Does the work.

It delivers on the promise and with simplicity!

djovani

For a non WordPress savvy type like myself, it resolves problems for those who want to write posts and not deal with technical stuff.

donutapologetics

Excellent Plugin.

Simple and light weight plugin that does the job well.

aussiesj

Absolutely perfect for a site with many products in many languages. I use 8 languages translated in WPML with about 3000 products.

ringdal

I downloaded the plugin because of the ability to rename the sitemap. Why there is no such function in ordinary SEO plugins is a question!

yulaeff2010

I really like this plugin, it’s simple, efficient, and lightweight. No issue with submitting the sitemap to Google Search Console. Google News sitemap is a nice add-on.

mishash

After years of relying on adding filters to functions.php for Yoast to act right and also Yoast recently acting up, displaying homepage multiple times in the sitemap… I found.

shirtguy72
