CrawlWP – The WordPress SEO Plugin That Also Gets You Indexed

Optimize every page, submit it to search engines (Google, Bing, Yandex, Yep etc) the moment you publish, and see which ones actually indexed it — all inside WordPress.

CrawlWP is a complete WordPress SEO plugin. It handles the on-page work you expect — meta titles and descriptions, schema, breadcrumbs, social cards, robots rules, redirects and sitemaps. Then it does the part most SEO plugins leave to chance: it submits your content to search engines for indexing and let you know when they actually get indexed.

Over 40,000 website owners use CrawlWP for their WordPress SEO.

Complete on-page SEO: Titles, meta descriptions, schema, breadcrumbs, Open Graph and X cards for every post, page and custom post type.
Technical SEO built in: Redirects, a 404 monitor, a robots.txt editor, sitemaps and llms.txt — no extra plugins.
Instant indexing on search engines: Google, Bing, Yandex, Naver, Yep and Seznam.cz.

Why CrawlWP Is Different

Most WordPress SEO plugins write your meta tags and stop. Your page then waits for a crawler that may not come back for a week, and you have no way to know if it ever arrived.

CrawlWP closes that gap. It tells search engines the moment you create, update or delete content, then checks the result. “Is this page indexed?” becomes a question you can answer instead of guess.

It also goes further than other SEO plugins for WordPress. Many offer IndexNow for Bing and Yandex, often only on a paid plan. CrawlWP submits to Google, Bing, Yandex, Naver, Yep and Seznam.cz in the free version. CrawlWP Premium then checks whether each page was actually indexed, and shows your website search performance on Google, Bing and Yandex.

Ready for Search and AI Search

People now ask AI assistants as well as search engines. Both read your site, and both work better when your site is easy to understand.

AI titles and meta descriptions: Generate SEO titles and meta descriptions with the AI connectors in WordPress.
Structured data graph: Tell search engines and AI tools who runs your site, what it is and how its pages fit together.
llms.txt: A plain-text file that describes your site to the AI crawlers that now read it. Generated for you, or written by hand.

On-Page SEO for WordPress

Meta titles and descriptions: Templates for the homepage, every post type, every taxonomy and the author, date, search and 404 archives — with a live preview of the result.
SEO metabox: Override any template on the posts that matter, with a real Google preview measured in pixels, not characters.
Bulk editor: Fix the SEO title and meta description of a hundred posts from one table, with live character counters.
Content analysis: Focus keyword checks across the title, URL, meta description, first paragraph, headings, images and links.
Schema markup: A JSON-LD graph you control — organization or person, logo, sitelinks search box, social profiles, article markup and breadcrumbs.
Local SEO: LocalBusiness structured data with your full address, phone number and opening hours.
Breadcrumbs: A [crawlwp_breadcrumbs] shortcode with your own labels, separator and main category.
Open Graph and X cards: Control how every page looks when it is shared, with a preview in the editor and a fallback image.
Image SEO: Missing image alt text filled in from the image title or file name. Alt text you wrote yourself is never changed.
Internal link suggestions: See related posts you could link to, every link already in a post, and posts with no links pointing at them.

Technical SEO

Redirect manager: 301, 302 and 410 redirects with exact, starts-with, ends-with and regex matching, hit counts and an on/off switch for each rule.
Automatic redirects: Change a post’s URL and CrawlWP adds the 301 for you, so old links never break.
404 monitor: Every broken URL logged with its hit count and where visitors came from — one click from becoming a redirect.
robots.txt editor: Edit the file your site really serves, including anything other plugins add. No FTP needed.
Robots settings: noindex, nofollow and canonical URLs for any post or whole post type.
XML sitemaps: Works with the WordPress sitemap instead of replacing it, with a one-click check that search engines can reach it.
Site verification: Google, Bing, Yandex, Baidu and Pinterest, each showing the exact tag it adds.
Header and footer code: Your GA4 ID, Google Tag Manager container and any other scripts, kept safe when you change themes.
RSS attribution: A link back to the original post on every feed item, so sites that copy your content credit you.

Instant Indexing on Six Search Engines

A sitemap tells search engines a page exists, then waits for them to visit. CrawlWP sends each page to them directly.

Automatic submission: New, updated and deleted posts, pages and custom post types are sent the moment they change.
Google Indexing API: Google does not support IndexNow, so CrawlWP connects to Google’s own Indexing API.
IndexNow: Submission to Microsoft Bing, Naver, Seznam.cz, Yandex and Yep.
Bing and Yandex APIs: Direct connections for faster, confirmed submission.
Submission log: Every request recorded with the search engine, the response it returned and the time.

Switch From Yoast, Rank Math, AIOSEO or SEOPress in Minutes

Moving from another WordPress SEO plugin takes about ten minutes. CrawlWP finds Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO, SEOPress, The SEO Framework and Slim SEO and shows how many posts, terms and redirects each holds before you start.

Titles, meta descriptions, robots rules, canonical URLs, social images and redirects all come across. Nothing is deleted from your old plugin, so you can switch back at any time.
