VelocityIndex Lite Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
VelocityIndex Lite submits your URLs directly to the IndexNow API, which notifies Bing, Yandex, Naver, and Seznam that your page changed — so they can crawl it sooner instead of waiting for organic discovery.
Important: IndexNow confirms your URL was received. Each search engine independently decides if, when, and how it indexes your page — this plugin submits, it does not guarantee indexing or ranking.
No API keys, no account, no quota — the IndexNow verification key is generated automatically and hosted on your own domain.
Features
- IndexNow Protocol — One submission notifies Bing, Yandex, Naver & Seznam simultaneously
- Zero Configuration — IndexNow key is auto-generated and served on your domain (physical file or WordPress route, whichever your setup needs)
- Sitemap Import — Discover and queue URLs from your XML sitemap or sitemap index, with built-in safety limits
- Background Queue — Automatic processing via WP Cron with retry on temporary errors
- Submission Logs — Track every submission with status and response codes
- Modern Dashboard — Clean admin interface with real-time stats
- Free & Unlimited — No submission limits, no account required
- Privacy-respecting — Usage stats and AI tips are off by default and opt-in via Settings
How It Works
- Install and activate the plugin
- Enter a URL and click “Index Now”
- Your URL is submitted to the IndexNow API — Bing, Yandex, Naver & Seznam are notified
That’s it. No account, no API keys — the plugin generates and hosts your IndexNow verification key automatically.
VelocityIndex Pro
Pro is a separate plugin with its own plans. It adds, among other things:
- Google Indexing API — only for the page types Google officially supports (job postings and livestream
BroadcastEventvideo pages) - AI models for SEO content analysis
- Keyword Rank Tracker
- Google Search Console + GA4 Analytics integration
- Competitor Intelligence and Velocity Score (10-category SEO audit)
- Baidu submission and agency features (white-label, sub-accounts)
Current plans, pricing, and feature details always live on the official pricing page. Purchasing happens on velocityindex.ai — never inside this free plugin.

The IndexNow key is auto-generated locally and stored in your WordPress database. It is only shared with IndexNow as required by the protocol, and served publicly at /{key}.txt on your own domain for ownership verification — it is not a secret credential.
