Comment (by fabricecanel):
It's good to hear that you're open to looking into IndexNow again later
on. But to make sure you make the right decision, let me share more
information.
@jorbin: can you please share you concern for the API key to record them
and think about it? To make it clear: the key comes from the website,
which is in this case WordPress, not from the search engines. The key
helps one search engine verify that the URLs it gets are from your
website. The other CMS and big websites I work with don’t have concern
about the key.
Secondly, @johnbillion yes IndexNow is supported by most popular SEO
plugins like Yoast, AIOSEO, Rank Math, SEOPress and we also offer an open
source IndexNow plugin for the community. However, IndexNow should not be
just offer as plugin, most website owners have very little knowledge of
the system and CMS should handle by default the crawling/indexing part of
SEO. Consider that Google is helping adding sitemaps by default to
WordPress Core and IndexNow should also be part of the core to guaranty
data freshness. CMS like Wix and Duda have already integrated IndexNow in
their core and enabled it by default, and other Content Management Sytems
are working to enable IndexNow too.
