The WordPress IndexNow Plugin is a toolkit that enables an automated submission of URLs from WordPress sites to multiple search engines. Without the need to register and verify your site with them. Once installed, the plugin will automatically generate and host the API key on your site. It then detects any new page creation/update/deletion changes in WordPress.
Sitemaps are a way of organizing a website, identifying the URLs and the data under each section. Previously, they were primarily geared for the users of the website. However, Google's XML format was designed for the search engines, allowing them to find the data faster and more efficiently.
By default, all links are Dofollow Links unless they are modified to be Nofollow Links manually or are automatically changed by a website setting. And most times, search engine crawlers will follow these links from any given web address.
