Description
Most SEO plugins grade the page you are already editing. Visibility Flux starts from your real
Google Search Console data and tells you which page to open first — the one quietly
losing the most clicks.
Upload your Search Console CSV export and Visibility Flux scores every page against the
click-through rate its ranking position should be earning. The gap multiplied by
impressions gives you estimated lost clicks per month: a worklist sorted worst-first,
not a traffic light.
It also covers the half of search that changed recently — whether AI assistants can reach
your site at all, and whether they send you readers.
The Problem Map
Five views over your whole site, built from your own data:
- Low CTR — seen often, clicked rarely, sorted by the clicks that gap is costing you
- Almost there — page-two pages and queries a small edit could lift onto page one
- Cannibalisation — your own pages competing, with keep and merge recommendations
- Losing ground — pages sliding down between your last two imports, before it hurts
- Results — what changed on the pages you already fixed, before and after
Search Console exports are parsed in any language — English, French, German, Spanish,
Dutch, Arabic and more, comma or semicolon separated. Nothing to reformat.
Can ChatGPT actually read your site?
Editing robots.txt tells you what you wrote. It does not tell you what a crawler receives.
The common failure is a CDN or firewall refusing the request before WordPress is ever
reached, and no robots.txt editor can show you that.
Visibility Flux requests your site using the real user-agent strings of GPTBot,
OAI-SearchBot and PerplexityBot, and reports the status code that actually comes back.
It checks nine AI crawlers, plus the settings that would remove your whole site from
search and AI answers, with one-click fixes.
It also generates an llms.txt from your best performing pages, served virtually at
/llms.txt — no file written to disk.
AI traffic, counted
When someone clicks through from an AI answer, most analytics tools file the visit under
“direct”. Visibility Flux counts those visits properly, across twelve assistants: ChatGPT,
Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Copilot, Meta AI, You.com, Poe, Phind, DeepSeek, Mistral and
Grok.
No cookies. No accounts. No visitor identity in your stored traffic: only which assistant
sent the reader and which page they landed on. Daily totals are kept for 90 days, monthly
totals for 36 months, the 200 most visited pages, and a log of the last 100 visits, each
with its time, the assistant, the landing path and the referring site’s hostname. Nothing
leaves your site — the count is made by your own WordPress. On by default, with a switch in
Settings to turn it off; switching it off stops the counting and keeps the figures already
collected.
A small flag in the browser’s session storage stops one visit being counted twice. It is not
a cookie, it is never sent anywhere, and it goes when the tab closes.
The tracking endpoint is throttled so it cannot be spammed to inflate your numbers. That
check salts the visitor IP with your own site key and keeps a counter under the resulting
hash for ten minutes. It is never reversible and never reaches your stored data.
AI Commerce Readiness (WooCommerce)
AI shopping agents buy from structured product data, not from your page design. Visibility Flux
audits every product for missing images, prices, thin descriptions, missing categories,
GTIN, brand and weight — a score per product, worst first, with a direct edit link.
Fully deterministic: no AI calls, no API key, no cost.
Also included
- Content audit — one sweep for missing, duplicate and truncated titles and
descriptions, thin pages, and images with no alt text. Duplicates can only be found
site-wide: no single page knows its title is shared - Speed audit — fetches your busiest pages and names the actual files slowing them:
which image gates the first paint, which scripts block rendering and which plugin
shipped them, how much JavaScript you carry. Real files, real sizes, no API key - Answer readiness — whether each page has the JSON-LD, freshness, structure and
verifiable author that assistants lift answers from - hreflang validation — self-reference, x-default and language tags, on multilingual
sites only - Instant indexing via IndexNow — Bing, Yandex, Naver and Seznam. Off until you switch it on in Settings; no account or key needed
- Internal link suggestions scored by real keyword relevance
- Manual SEO title and meta editing with a live Google preview
- Thin-content detection that reads page-builder content, not just the classic editor
- Writes into Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO, SEOPress, The SEO Framework or Slim SEO, or sets the title and meta description itself when none is installed
- Works in any language, including right-to-left scripts
Visibility Flux Pro
Everything above is free, forever, with no time limit. Visibility Flux Pro adds the writing:
- AI-generated SEO titles and meta descriptions, written against the page’s real ranking queries
- Content generation — intros, H2 sections, FAQ blocks, product CTAs and full rewrites
- Two-pass proofreading that does not break your HTML
- JSON-LD schema generation and a 0–100 quality score per article
- AI internal link insertion
- Competitor gap research
- A five-layer site memory that learns your brand voice
- Batch processing across your whole site
- Submitting pages to Google through the Indexing API
Pro is available with a 7-day free trial at infinacode.com.
It uses your own Anthropic API key, so you pay Anthropic directly for what you use and
every action shows its exact cost. When a trial ends, the plugin returns to the free
features — nothing is deleted.
External services
IndexNow notifies Bing, Yandex, Naver and Seznam when a page is published or updated. It
is off until you switch on instant indexing in Settings, and it never runs for a noindex page.
- Service: IndexNow,
https://api.indexnow.org/indexnow - Data sent: the page address, your site’s host name and a generated key file name. No
content, no personal data, no visitor data - Terms: https://www.indexnow.org/faq · https://www.bing.com/webmasters/indexnow
Speed audit. While you run it, the plugin sends a HEAD request for each image and script
your pages load and reads the first few stylesheets. Files hosted by other companies (a font
service, an analytics script, a CDN) are requested from their own servers: the file’s
address only, no page content, no visitor data. Private and loopback addresses are refused.

Installation
- Install and activate the plugin.
- In Google Search Console, open Performance, then Export, then Download CSV.
- Go to Visibility Flux, then Settings, then Import GSC, and upload the Pages and Queries files.
- Open the Problem Map. Your pages are ranked by estimated lost clicks per month.
For the best cannibalisation detection, add Page as a second dimension to the Queries report before exporting.
Requirements: WordPress 6.0 and PHP 8.0 or newer, with the PHP mbstring extension enabled.
FAQ
-
Does it need anything special from my host?
-
Only the PHP mbstring extension, which almost every host enables. It is what lets the
plugin measure and cut text in any language — including scripts that do not space their
words. WordPress itself treats mbstring as optional, so if yours is missing, this plugin
says so in the WordPress admin and loads nothing rather than failing halfway. Ask your host
to enable it; nothing else changes and your data is untouched. -
Does this replace Yoast or Rank Math?
-
No. Visibility Flux writes into their fields and handles what they do not: Search Console
analysis, AI crawler access, and AI traffic measurement. Run both.Without an SEO plugin, Visibility Flux sets each page’s title and meta description itself.
With one installed, it leaves that to the SEO plugin, so a page never gets two. -
Do I need an API key?
-
Not for the free plugin. Nothing in it makes an AI call. An Anthropic API key is only
needed for the AI writing features in Visibility Flux Pro. -
Does it send my data anywhere?
-
The free plugin never contacts our servers, and makes no AI calls. Your Search Console
data stays in your WordPress database.It does contact two places, both on your instruction: your own site, which the crawler
test, speed audit, answer readiness and hreflang checks fetch the way a visitor would, and
IndexNow, which is told the address of a page you just published. See External
services below for the details. -
Which languages are supported?
-
Your site can be in any language, including right-to-left. Two different things are worth
separating here:- Reading and checking your site works in any language. Word counts handle scripts that
do not space their words — Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Khmer, Burmese — instead of reporting a
full article as one word. Search Console exports import whatever language their column
headers are in. Thirty-five languages additionally have their own tables for number and
currency formatting and for the filler phrasing the content checks flag. - The plugin’s own interface follows your WordPress locale and is translated through the
WordPress.org translation project, so which languages are available there is down to what
volunteers have completed.
- Reading and checking your site works in any language. Word counts handle scripts that
-
What happens if I uninstall?
-
Deleting the plugin removes all of its data: settings, imported data, caches, AI traffic
history and post meta. Deactivating alone keeps everything.
