# PublishPress Permissions and Yoast SEO (Pro)

This feature requires the Pro version of the PublishPress Permissions plugin.

The [Yoast SEO plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/) is a very popular search engine optimization for WordPress.

The Pro version of [PublishPress Permissions](https://publishpress.com/links/permissions) integrates with the sitemap feature of Yoast SEO. Any posts or pages that are blocked from public access thanks to [PublishPress Permissions](https://publishpress.com/links/permissions) will also be removed from the Yoast SEO sitemap.

In the example shown in this screenshot below, a page is blocked from viewing for "Not Logged In" visitors. This page will not appear in the Yoast SEO sitemap.
