A missing feature from Yoast SEO plugin. This is a very important SEO step to add your sitemap to the robots.txt, as a lot of bots (Google also) automatically search for sitemaps in the robots.txt file.
If you don’t have a separate robots.txt file on the server, than WordPress automatically generates a virtual robots.txt file with the necessary directives.
This plugin will add the Yoast SEO plugin’s XML Sitemap URL to the virtual robots.txt file, so search bots will find your sitemap and can crawl your site easily.
Multisite Network installs
This plugin is also working on Multisite installs, adding the right sitemap for all your subsites. The plugin checks, if Yoast SEO plugin is activated and if the XML Sitemap is enabled on the sites, so it will add the sitemap URL only, if the sitemap exists.

Auto Focus Keyword for SEO is a WordPress plugin that fills missing focus keyword fields from the post title.
It is designed for sites that already use Yoast SEO or Rank Math and want a faster way to populate focus keywords across existing content.
Official documentation: <a href="https://autolinksforseo.com/focus-keyword" rel="nofollow ugc">https://autolinksforseo.com/focus-keyword</a>
<h4>Quick product facts</h4>
<ul>
<li>Product type: WordPress SEO workflow plugin</li>
<li>Main action: fills missing focus keyword fields from post titles</li>
<li>Works in: WordPress admin / backend</li>
<li>Supported SEO plugins: Yoast SEO, Rank Math</li>
<li>Default workflow: FETCH then SYNC</li>
<li>Overwrite existing keywords: no</li>
<li>Keyword research / AI generation: no</li>
<li>WooCommerce product pages: Pro</li>
<li>Continuous auto-sync for new content: Pro</li>
</ul>
<h4>What Auto Focus Keyword does</h4>
Auto Focus Keyword scans selected post types and finds published items that do not yet have a focus keyword in the supported SEO plugin.
When you run SYNC, it writes the post title into the supported focus keyword field.
This plugin is useful when you want to:
<ul>
<li>populate missing focus keywords in bulk</li>
<li>save time on large WordPress sites</li>
<li>standardize a starting point for SEO workflows</li>
<li>prepare content for downstream systems that rely on focus keywords</li>
</ul>
<h4>What Auto Focus Keyword does not do</h4>
Auto Focus Keyword does not do the following:
<ul>
<li>it does not generate AI keyword suggestions</li>
<li>it does not perform keyword research</li>
<li>it does not estimate search volume or difficulty</li>
<li>it does not rewrite titles, content, or meta descriptions</li>
<li>it does not overwrite existing focus keywords during batch sync</li>
<li>it does not support All in One SEO (AIOSEO) in the current version</li>
<li>it does not guarantee that a page title is the ideal target query in every case</li>
</ul>
This distinction matters: Auto Focus Keyword is a bulk field population tool, not a full keyword research platform.
<h4>Why this plugin exists</h4>
Many WordPress sites never filled focus keyword fields consistently, especially on large content libraries and WooCommerce catalogs.
Auto Focus Keyword gives you a fast way to assign a practical default value so your editorial and SEO workflow starts from something structured instead of something empty.
It also fits naturally into a broader SEO pipeline. If your site uses focus keywords as a signal for internal linking or other rule-based SEO automation, this plugin helps you establish that signal first.

<h4>Important SEO note</h4>
Using the post title as the focus keyword is a practical starting point, not a universal SEO truth.
For product pages and large catalogs, the title is often close to the intended target query. For editorial pages, service pages, or branded content, the best focus keyword may still need manual refinement.
Auto Focus Keyword is best understood as a workflow accelerator, not as a substitute for SEO judgment on every page.
<h4>Free edition</h4>
The free edition is built for manual batch work.
Included in Free:
<ul>
<li>select post types to scan</li>
<li>FETCH missing items</li>
<li>SYNC missing focus keywords in bulk</li>
<li>blacklist / exclusions</li>
<li>activity log</li>
<li>plugin settings cleanup option on deactivation</li>
</ul>
The free edition is intended to help you retrofit existing content quickly.
<h4>Pro edition</h4>
The Pro edition extends the workflow for sites that publish continuously.
Included in Pro:
<ul>
<li>continuous auto-sync for new content</li>
<li>WooCommerce product page support</li>
<li>per-page disable control in the sidebar</li>
</ul>

<h4>Compatibility</h4>
Auto Focus Keyword supports:
<ul>
<li>Yoast SEO</li>
<li>Rank Math</li>
</ul>
It does not create its own focus keyword system. It writes to the supported SEO plugin field already present on the site.
If neither Yoast SEO nor Rank Math is active, there is no supported focus keyword field to fill.
<h4>How it works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Select the post types you want to process</li>
<li>Exclude any pages or URLs you do not want to touch</li>
<li>Run FETCH to identify published items with a missing focus keyword</li>
<li>Run SYNC to fill the missing field with the post title</li>
<li>Review the log</li>
</ol>
Pro can keep new content synchronized automatically after publication.
<h4>Use cases</h4>
Auto Focus Keyword is especially useful for:
<ul>
<li>large blog archives</li>
<li>WooCommerce stores</li>
<li>editorial teams that inherited unoptimized content</li>
<li>agencies standardizing an SEO workflow before deeper manual review</li>
</ul>

<h4>About the publisher</h4>
Auto Focus Keyword for SEO is developed by <a href="https://pagup.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Pagup</a>, a digital readability firm based in Quebec, Canada.
A clear focus keyword on every page is a foundational layer of digital readability. Without it, search engines and AI systems cannot determine what a page is about or how it relates to the rest of your content. This plugin automates that layer so that your editorial structure remains coherent as your site grows.
