BWP Google XML Sitemaps for WordPress

BWP Google XML Sitemaps is a WordPress plugin that has support for both sitemapindex and Multi-site websites.

BetterWP.net say “This plugin is fast, consumes much fewer resources and can be extended via your very own modules (yes, no hooks needed!).

Sitemapindex Support
What’s so great about a sitemapindex you might say? A Sitemap Index, as its name suggests, is one kind of sitemaps that allows you to group multiple sitemap files inside it. A Sitemap Index, therefore, gives you many benefits, such as: possibility to bypass the 50,000 URL limit (you can have 10 custom sitemaps, each has 10000 URLs), or possibility to make the generation time much faster (because each sitemap is requested separately and is built by its own module), etc.

Multi-site Support
Each website within your network will have its own sitemapindex and sitemaps. For sub-domain installation, your sitemapindex will appear at http://sub-domain.example.com/sitemapindex.xml. For sub-folder installation, your sitemapindex will appear at http://example.com/sub-folder/sitemapindex.xml. And of course, there’s always a sitemapindex for your main site, available at http://example.com/sitemapindex.xml. If you choose the sub-domain approach, each sub-domain can also have its own robots.txt. More on that in the Robots.txt section.”
