      I tried to use yoast and google xml plugins but I´ve notice there are several important posts to me are not there... I´ve already checked if there was any post with noindex, and everything looks good

      Now I´m creating the sitemap file with screaming frog but it is not so convenient as a plugin... any suggestions or tips?

        Martin,

        I think Slick plan is a great tool. This makes it more of a drawing operation to create a site map .  Once the site map is completed you can export this out to XML.

            I would honestly try to troubleshoot Yoast far before I made a site map that did not update when I create new content.

            The website for Yoast http://yoast.com/ is very informative and I believe that you can simply turn the index to on in advanced.

            although there are some fantastic do-it-yourself site map tools for instance

            http://www.internetmarketingninjas.com/seo-tools/google-sitemap-generator/

            while you're there check out your robots.txt file make sure nothing's been blocked.

            http://www.internetmarketingninjas.com/seo-tools/robots-txt-generator/

            Here are some more great tools from Internet marketing ninjas

            http://www.internetmarketingninjas.com/tools/

            if you find screaming frog one of the best tools on the web if you ask me to be frustrating which it can be. I would look for a another plug-in to create your site map.

            This is from personal experience however when WP engine 1st started up they would only allow us to use this plug-in

            http://wordpress.org/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/

            an excellent plug-in if I may say so

            here are some other excellent site maps

            http://techpopular.com/seo/google-xml-sitemap-generator-plugin-review-and-settings-for-wordpress/

            http://www.webdesignlessons.com/5-sitemap-generator-plugins-for-wordpress/

            if I may suggest one more time. I would simply take the Yoast plug-in export all the settings.

            Then delete the plug-in as well is empty the cash.

            Then reinstall the plug-in it is in my opinion the best for search engine optimization. However there are other alternatives of course.

            http://yoast.com/wordpress/seo/

            If I may make another suggestion is if you're using WordPress I suggest using a managed WordPress hosting company.

            My reason is twofold they understand hosting and are extremely knowledgeable about WordPress. Many times we spend time trying to figure out things that with a managed WordPress hosting company would mean the answer is we fixed it or do this after only 20 min. They will fix the problem and are well worth it in my opinion.

            If I may some great managed WordPress hosting companies are ZippyKid, WPengine, web synthesis, Pagely, get flywheel & presslabs.

            I strongly suggest you check them out as they are all fantastic compared to run-of-the-mill hosting and truly do care about your website much more than the average post not to forget their faster and much more secure.

            Sincerely,

            Thomas

              just perfect thomas, many many thanks..  I will check all those links and let you know. Right now I´m testing slickplan and looks great also.

              At the momento I´m using WPengine, it works great to me 🙂

                Try the DYNO Mapper sitemap generator. It has a plugin built for Wordpress that can authenticate and crawl all of your pages within your Wordpress site or any additional sub-domains that you have. This is great because most large website contain several websites on sub-domains and cms systems. It also includes Google Analytics and Content Audit features to check for bad links and errors. It can export your XML sitemaps for search engines and HTML for your website.
