WP Rankify – AI SEO, Schema JSON-LD & AI Content Optimizer

Your content is being graded. By Google. By AI crawlers. By ChatGPT. The question is: does it pass? WP Rankify gives you an honest answer — with a weighted score across four categories, concrete action items, auto-generated Schema.org markup, a rule-based meta description generator, and an AI-powered topic analysis that shows exactly what your article is still missing. No vanity score. Just what actually matters. ✅ Weighted AI Readiness Score – 4 categories, 0–100 points, right inside the WordPress editor ✅ Compatible with Yoast, RankMath & AIOSEO – automatic detection, zero conflicts ✅ E-E-A-T analysis – checks author authority, job title, biography and SameAs links ✅ Schema.org Person + Article – automatic JSON-LD markup generated from your author profile ✅ AI topic analysis – missing subtopics, unanswered questions, related search queries ✅ Meta description generator – 4 optimized variants, rule-based, no API key required ✅ Smart internal linking – see who already links here, get one-click backlink suggestions, and a data-driven "how many links is enough?" recommendation ✅ Score presets – YMYL/Expert, Standard Blog, E-Commerce, Custom ✅ Automatic generation of the all-important llms.txt ✅ NEW: AI Visits – see which AI (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity …) read which page, and how many real visitors AI chats send you ✅ Dashboard – overview of all posts with scores, filter tabs and top issues ✅ Tracking & Analytics – Google Tag Manager, GA4, Search Console and Meta Pixel ✅ Google Search Console connection in 5 simple steps 🎯 Why This Plugin Is Different Most SEO plugins measure whether your keyword shows up often enough. WP Rankify measures whether Google and AI systems trust who you are — and whether your article genuinely covers every topic it should. That's the difference between ranking and not ranking after the Helpful Content Update. 📊 The AI Readiness Score Four weighted categories. No arbitrary points. ✍ Content Quality (35%) Word count, heading structure, sentence length, readability, lists, FAQ signals — everything Google considers "helpful." 🏅 E-E-A-T / Authority (30%) The core of the plugin. Author job title, professional bio, SameAs links (LinkedIn, Instagram, Xing), external sources. Exactly what Google means by "Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trust." ⚙ Technical SEO (20%) Featured image, alt text, meta description (compatible with Yoast, RankMath, AIOSEO), title length and CTR signals. 🔗 Internal Linking (15%) Internal links, content freshness, and how many links your text actually needs based on its word count. Because a great article is useless if it's an island. Score bands:

• 🟢 75–100: AI-Ready
• 🟡 50–74: Needs Work
• 🔴 0–49: Critical

🤖 AI Visits: Which AI Read Your Content? You optimize for AI search — but does AI actually read your site? Now you can see it. AI has read:

• Which AI crawlers and assistants visited — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Meta, Apple, Amazon, Mistral and more
• Which page was read by which AI — clear page × AI overview
• Why they came: training, AI search index or live fetch (someone just asked a chatbot about your topic)
• Daily trend and a log of the latest visits AI sent visitors:
• Real people who clicked a link to your site inside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Copilot & co.
• Which AI sends the most visitors, and on which pages they land Privacy-friendly: no IP addresses, no cookies, no tracking of regular visitors. Built-in debug mode helps you identify unknown AI fetchers.

🧠 AI Topic Analysis (Pro) The feature no other SEO plugin has. WP Rankify analyzes your article holistically — not by keywords, but by content. The AI identifies:

• Missing topics – What do readers of this article actually expect to find? With priority and reasoning.
• Unanswered questions – Which concrete questions are left open?
• Related search queries – What else are people searching for on this topic?
• Overall assessment – An honest 1-2 sentence evaluation of the article.

No API key required. The AI runs on the WP Rankify server — you only pay for the subscription. Free: 3 analyses/month. Pro: 50–100 analyses. Agency: unlimited. 🏥 Score Presets For Your Industry Because a medical website is judged by different standards than a tech blog.

• YMYL / Expert (medicine, law, finance, consulting) → E-E-A-T weighted 40%
• Standard Blog (content, news, magazines) → Balanced
• E-Commerce / Local (shops, restaurants, service providers) → Technical SEO weighted 35%
• Custom → Set your own weighting via sliders

👤 Expert Profile & Schema.org Person This is the feature other plugins don't have. For each author, you fill in the following on their WordPress profile:

• Job title (e.g. "Certified Nurse Practitioner")
• Professional bio (short summary of their expertise)
• Practice/expert website
• SameAs links (social media profiles, industry directories)

The plugin automatically turns this into a complete Schema.org @graph in the <head> of every post — no shortcodes, no manual work. 📝 Meta Description Generator WP Rankify analyzes your post using rule-based logic and suggests 4 optimized meta descriptions — no API key, no cost:

• Keyword-focused: main keyword up front, factual and informative
• Benefit-focused: what's in it for the reader?
• Question format: opens with a question to spark curiosity
• Call to action: clear CTA at the end

Every variant shows character count and a quality score. Apply it with one click directly into Yoast SEO, RankMath or AIOSEO. 🔗 Automatic Internal Linking WP Rankify doesn't just look at the article you're editing — it scans your whole site to show the full internal-linking picture:

• Who links here – see every published post that already links to the one you're editing
• Missing backlinks – topically related posts that don't link here yet, found automatically
• One-click backlink – insert a link straight into that other post with a single click, without ever opening it
• How many is enough? – a data-driven recommendation (roughly 1 internal link per 200–250 words) shown right next to the actual count, for the post you're editing and for every suggested post

No manual searching, no copy-paste, no guessing whether you've linked "enough." 📈 Dashboard Your entire site at a glance:

• Doughnut chart: How many posts are AI-Ready / Need Work / Critical?
• Radar chart: Average scores by category
• Filter tabs: Instantly see every post missing an image, meta description, links or an H2
• Top 3 issues shown directly in the post list — you know exactly what to fix next
