A free WordPress SEO plugin with the features that matter, explained in plain words. No paid version, no ads, no features held back.
What it does
- Helps you write better posts. An SEO score from 0 to 100 while you write, with a short to-do list in everyday words, a live Google preview, and length bars that turn green when the title and description are just right.
- Suggests links. Shows related posts you can link to while you write, with a one-click copy.
- Fixes many posts at once. Quick SEO Fix lets you add main keywords and descriptions to a whole list of posts on one screen.
- Looks good in Google and when shared. Title formats you build by clicking, share cards for Facebook, X, Discord and Messenger, and the behind-the-scenes details Google reads (schema) for articles, game reviews with star ratings, breadcrumbs and YouTube videos.
- Keeps Google focused on your best pages. Hides thin pages like tag and date archives, keeps the sitemap clean, and adds a Google News sitemap for new posts.
- Fixes broken links. Redirects for single pages or whole sections, plus a list of broken links people actually visited, each with a one-click fix.
- Easy to switch to. One-click import from All in One SEO. It never changes All in One SEO’s data, so you can switch back anytime, and it waits quietly while another SEO plugin is still on.
- Made for shared hosting. Imports and updates run in small batches, so they finish without timing out.
The SEO score is a helpful writing checklist, not a promise of a Google ranking.
Why we built it
Our sites each ran a different SEO plugin, and every one of them kept useful features behind a paid plan. So we built one with only the essentials a news or blog site needs, wrote every setting in plain words, and tested it on PinoyGaming.net, a busy gaming news site with thousands of posts.
Built to be safe
An SEO plugin touches every page of your site, so it has to be careful. Every admin action checks permissions, everything shown is escaped, and every database query is prepared. It never contacts outside services while a page loads or a post is saving. It passes WordPress.org’s Plugin Check with no errors or warnings, and it has been through an outside security review.
Free, for real
No subscription, no premium tier, no ads in your dashboard. If the plugin saves you time, you can buy us a coffee.
Get it
Kapatagan SEO is running live on PinoyGaming.net and will be submitted to the WordPress.org plugin directory next. Until it’s listed, email [email protected] if you’d like to try it.
Changelog
1.0.2
- Redirects treat the www and non-www addresses of your site as the same site, so loops between them are caught.
- A “moved for now” redirect is never turned into “moved for good” when redirects are chained, and query parameters like ?campaign= or ?utm_source= are kept.
- Video schema is only added for real YouTube players, not plain links, and background lookups stop if you turn the feature off.
1.0.1
- Redirects that would loop are refused, chains of redirects are followed so visitors get one jump, and large redirect lists are faster.
- YouTube details are looked up in the background, never while a post is saving. Video schema follows Google’s rules and needs a free YouTube API key.
- Sitemaps keep conditions added by other plugins, plus safety and Plugin Check clean-ups.
1.0.0
- First release ready for WordPress.org, including everything from the 0.x test releases on PinoyGaming.net.
