About this plugin
BoostMaster finds the pages search engines have not indexed, explains why, and notifies the engines that accept notifications. This plugin does the site side of that work for you, without editing files by hand.
What it does:
- Serves your IndexNow key. The key file is answered by WordPress at your domain, so Bing, Yandex, Seznam, Naver and Yep accept notifications for your pages. Nothing is written into your web root.
- Adds the priority sitemap line to robots.txt. Search engines accept a sitemap hosted elsewhere when your own robots.txt points to it. The plugin adds that one line.
- Puts real dates in your sitemap. The sitemap that ships with WordPress leaves out lastmod, so a page you changed looks the same as one you never touched. The plugin fills it in from the post’s own modified date.
- Tells BoostMaster when you publish or update. New and changed addresses are queued and sent a few seconds later, so saving a post stays fast.
- Puts a summary on your WordPress dashboard. How many pages are tracked, how many Google has indexed, how many are still waiting and how many are blocked, without leaving WordPress. The figures are fetched twice a day in the background, so your dashboard never waits for the network.
- Walks you through the setup. One screen shows the three steps, what is already done, what BoostMaster still has to confirm from the outside, and the exact text to paste when your server needs it done by hand.
- Counts AI visits, if you want it to. Which AI crawlers (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and others) read which pages, and how many people arrive from AI assistants. Only your own server can see this. Counts are kept per day and page and sent to BoostMaster once a day. Off by default.
- Gives you a “latest posts” block. Search engines find pages through links. Use the shortcode [boostmaster_recent_posts count="5" title="New posts"] on a page that is crawled often.
You need a BoostMaster account to use this plugin. Create an API key in the dashboard under Settings and API with the “Connect and set up a site”, “Read projects” and “Add pages” permissions, then paste it into Settings and BoostMaster in WordPress.
What BoostMaster does not do
No one can guarantee that a search engine will index a page, and this plugin does not claim to. It uses the official, documented channels only: IndexNow, sitemaps and the notifications your own site is allowed to send.
External service
tr and only after you paste an API key.
What is sent: your site address and name when you connect, and the addresses of posts you publish or update. Your API key is sent with every request so the service knows which account the site belongs to.
If you turn on “Count AI visits”, the plugin also sends, once a day, how many times each AI crawler visited each page and how many visitors arrived from each AI assistant on each page. These are daily totals only: no IP address, cookie, user agent string or anything else that identifies a visitor is stored or sent.
