Super plugin
You need some time to understand but that it’s just great!
After ages trying to figure out how to fine tune the SEO of my website and failing miserable I came across this plugin. That just has all the settings I needed a more. At first the warning flashes seemed intimidating but its just trying to help by shouting THIS IS NOT DONE FIX IT. They you do and then no more warning message.
Have used numerous plugins that claim to be able to boost our SEO optimization, etc etc. Ended up with WPSSO over year ago and wish weâd started using it earlier.
While it is not the easiest plugin to utilize initially as you really do need to have a basic understanding of Schema types and how they are best utilized and implemented. However, once you get it dialed in, WPSSO Core and the various Premium editions we use have really helped with our visibility with search engines as well as social media sites understanding our content.Â
Plus, the support for the Premium level is fantastic! Nothing is without a few hiccups, and the WPSSO team does a stellar job of working with me to improve the plugin when needed.
This plugin comes highly recommended and I have seen an amazing result on gtx site speed since activating it. Also, it is helping me meet Google Console requirements which is all new to me. Thank you!
First Class plugin and support!!!
The support offered by js. is majestic.
Thank you again, js.
Very satisfied with the tool. Simpel and effective.
It tells you, what is wrong, great!
Quality plugin and good support
Absolutely awesome!!!!
Buen trabajo ð
Quality plugin and great support. I would recommend it over Yoast.
Good
Please add Persian language support
So far so good. Thank you!
WPSSO core plugin is compatible with AIOSEO and Litespeed cache.
I simply agree with some other reviews, and would rather say I agree and point others to those reviews:
Support has been wonderful.
– I requested a feature to rename the admin menu page titles, and the developer add support for those filters in only some hours, and responded back to me, to update to the dev release to try. Lol, awesome!
The plugin is super helpful for Seo and Schema.
Just great for metadata control and learning.
– I agree with this in principal, that plugins like this, or even all plugins, should tend to know more than those who are using it.
I also want to say, that I’m glad this has a simple UI, where other seo related premium plugins have started invading the WordPress UI, with all sort of fanciness, but just unnecessary as well, and it has gotten carried away. When it comes to editing my pages, posts, etc., my WordPress UI has remained the same, and so now with WPSSO, it can continue to feel that way.
I upgraded to premium almost immediately. I was just glad to think about getting rid of other seo plugins, lol.
And it is so nice, that as of to date, was able to get a flat price for a license. Something that I can refer to clients or include in their price package, for single license or multiple licenses.
oldukça memnunum
not only a brilliant component but also superb communication with the developer. This has got to be THE most comprehensive plugin to get you ranking
This is a winner plugin. I use it on all my websites.
The out-of-the-box defaults encouraged by the author are enough to give anyone a quick leg up in local SEO. The real power of this plugin, though, is how configurable it truly is. Someone truly dedicated to making the search engines do tricks can rocket their site to the top of the localized SERP feature pages with the options in this plugin.
Also, the author is amazing. At one point I was wanting to integrate with a jobs plugin to be able to add Job meta to the individual job listings. I reached out to the author to ask about getting support, they asked what plugin it was, and got back to me within about four hours to ask me to test their changes in a pre-release beta they’d cut just for the feature I’d requested. I had support for the jobs plugin I was needing to integrate within less than a day!
I’ve been working with WP for many years, and I have experience with many, many SEO plugins. I promise you won’t be disappointed with this one.
The After-Sales Service is perfect! JS Morisset’s responses are always quick and very precise whenever we have a concern.
No EAN / GTIN-13 numbers of products in shema.org?
Do you have WPSSO Core (Premium)?
In Woocommerce you have created your EAN / GTIN-13 codes in “Attributes” of products?? So disable the “WPSSO product metadata for WooCommerce SEO” addon. Then go to “Advanced Settings” of the SSO-Social and Search Optimization plugin, Metadata / Product Attributes section, and type the name of your ean/gtin13 attribute in the “GTIN-13 (EAN) attribute name” box. Then, go to the “Custom fields” tab and delete the data in the “Custom field GTIN-13 (EAN) of product” box.

Le Service Après-vente est parfait ! Les réponses de JS Morisset sont toujours rapides et très précises à chaque fois que nous avons un souci.
Pas de numéros EAN / GTIN-13 des produits dans shema.org ?
Vous avez WPSSO Core (Premium)?
Dans Woocommerce vous avez créé vos codes EAN / GTIN-13 dans “Attributs” de produits? Alors désactivez l’addon “WPSSO métadonnées de produit pour le SEO WooCommerce”. Ensuite allez dans “Réglages avancés” du plugin SSO-Optimisation sociale et de recherche, section Métadonnées / Attributs de produit, et tapez le nom de votre attribut ean/gtin13 dans la case “Nom d’attribut GTIN-13 (EAN)”. Puis, allez dans l’onglet “Champs personnalisés” et effacez la donnée qui est dans la case “Champ pers. GTIN-13 (EAN) de produit”.
JS was very helpful. The solution provided worked the first time.
Thank you!
I have the premium version of the app and it’s super user friendly. I’ve only needed to use support once so far in 2 years (today) and my question was quickly answered and my problem was resolved within a couple of hours (user error.)
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Great Plugin easy to use
