What the author says it does

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.

  • 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.
  • Ready for AI search: AI-written titles and descriptions, a structured data graph, and llms.txt for AI crawlers.
  • Switch in minutes: One-click import from Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO, SEOPress, The SEO Framework and Slim SEO — redirects included.
  • Your data stays yours: Your site talks to the search engines directly. Nothing passes through our servers.

Questions the author answers

Is CrawlWP free?

Yes. The free version is a complete on-page and technical SEO plugin, with instant indexing on six search engines. CrawlWP Premium adds Google, Bing and Yandex search data, per-post insights, index status and history, the Google News, video, HTML and multilingual sitemaps, internal link automation and email reports.

Do I still need Yoast SEO or Rank Math if I use CrawlWP?

No. CrawlWP covers on-page SEO — titles, meta descriptions, schema, breadcrumbs, Open Graph, robots settings, the robots.txt editor, redirects and a 404 monitor — so it replaces your existing SEO plugin rather than running alongside it. Two SEO plugins at once produce duplicate meta tags and competing sitemaps, so import your data and then deactivate the other one.

Can I import my data from another SEO plugin?

Yes. Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO, SEOPress, The SEO Framework and Slim SEO are found automatically, including plugins you deactivated but never removed. Titles, descriptions, robots rules, canonical URLs, social images and redirects are copied across. Overwriting existing values is optional, and nothing is deleted from the old plugin.

Will I lose my rankings if I switch to CrawlWP?

No. The importer keeps your titles, descriptions, canonical URLs and redirects, and CrawlWP never changes your URLs. To search engines, your site looks the same after the switch.

Is CrawlWP ready for AI search?

Yes. CrawlWP can write SEO titles and meta descriptions with the AI connectors in WordPress, builds a structured data graph that helps AI tools understand your site, and publishes an llms.txt file for AI crawlers. No plugin can guarantee an AI assistant will mention your site, but you can make sure it understands your content correctly.

Does CrawlWP replace the WordPress sitemap?

No, and that is deliberate. WordPress creates its own sitemap, so CrawlWP works with it instead of adding a second one. The free version includes the core XML sitemap. Premium adds the sitemaps WordPress does not provide: Google News, video, HTML and multilingual.

Latest changelog entry

3.1.2

  • Added setting to disable SEO features.
  • Fixed background process recursion hitting max_execution_time.
  • Fixed several bugs in SEO importers.
  • Moved focus keyword in seo metabox to General tab from Analysis.
  • Improved Breadcrumb preview to start with the Home label like the frontend.
  • Fixed bug where the block editor Preferences list show raw HTML for CrawlWP.
  • Sitemap: wrap the noindex meta clause so WP_Query applies it.

Where this page's numbers come from

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin. The author takes donations at their donate page.
