Maven already has a concept of a _plugin prefix_ which is essentially a short-name for a plugin. **site** is already taken, referring to maven-site-plugin. Introducing your own plugin called site-maven-plugin is simply far too confusing.

Personally, I recommend creating one github-maven-plugin that would have several goals (upload, site, etc.). The plugin prefix would be **github**.
