Rangsprung Helfer

Description

Rangsprung (https://rangsprung.com) writes and publishes blog articles for your business and fixes common SEO issues on your website. WordPress itself only allows posts and images to be created through its REST API. This small helper plugin adds what is missing:

  • Meta description and schema markup (JSON-LD) for every article Rangsprung publishes
  • Homepage title and meta description
  • Better titles and meta descriptions for single posts and pages that already rank on Google but get few clicks
  • Business details as schema markup (Organization)
  • Social sharing preview (Open Graph) for your homepage

If Yoast SEO or Rank Math is active, the plugin writes into their fields, so nothing is printed twice. Schema is only stored as validated JSON and printed with wp_json_encode – the plugin never stores or prints any other code.

The plugin has no settings page. It only acts on requests from logged-in users with the matching WordPress permissions (editing posts, or “manage_options” for site-wide settings) – Rangsprung connects with an application password that you create in your WordPress profile and can revoke at any time.

External services

This plugin does not connect to any external service and does not send any data anywhere. It only receives data from Rangsprung through the WordPress REST API after you have connected your site in your Rangsprung account using an application password.

FAQ

Do I need a Rangsprung account?

Yes. On its own, the plugin does nothing – it only stores what Rangsprung sends to it.

Does it work with Yoast SEO or Rank Math?

Yes. Page titles, meta descriptions and the homepage title are written into Yoast SEO or Rank Math, so nothing is duplicated. The sharing preview is then managed by your SEO plugin.

What happens when I delete the plugin?

All of its settings and stored descriptions are removed. Your posts stay as they are.
