## Description

mcorucu SEO Tools gives site owners, editors, developers, and WooCommerce teams 
clear, explainable SEO guidance inside WordPress. Its deterministic analyzer reviews
metadata, content structure, focus-keyword use, links, images, indexability, and
schema readiness, then produces a repeatable 0-100 score with practical recommendations.

#### Editorial workflow

Work in Gutenberg or the Classic Editor with SEO title and meta description fields,
focus-keyword guidance, search and social previews, canonical and robots controls,
schema selection, and category-level recommendations. The score is rule-based and
remains independent of optional AI suggestions.

#### Structured data and social metadata

Generate a Schema.org JSON-LD graph for site identity, pages, articles, breadcrumbs,
and WooCommerce products. Open Graph and X/Twitter Card output includes configurable
titles, descriptions, images, and identity fallbacks.

#### Technical SEO and maintenance

Use WordPress core XML Sitemap integration, robots.txt controls, technical health
checks, duplicate-output visibility, and a frontend output inspector. The exact-
match redirect manager and aggregated 404 monitor use plugin-owned tables; the monitor
does not store visitor IP addresses.

#### WooCommerce and compatibility

Product checks cover images, alt text, short descriptions, SKU, taxonomy use, price,
availability, reviews, and Product schema readiness. Commerce services run only 
when WooCommerce is active. The compatibility framework supports Gutenberg, the 
Classic Editor, Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, Bricks, Beaver Builder, and Avada.

#### Privacy-conscious optional AI

Core analysis, scoring, schema, social metadata, sitemaps, redirects, and deterministic
suggestions run locally. AI is disabled by default, requires administrator opt-in
and privacy acknowledgement, and runs only after an editor explicitly requests a
suggestion. AI suggestions never alter the deterministic SEO score, and the plugin
remains fully usable without AI.

#### Multilingual, extensible, and performance-conscious

WordPress selects bundled starter translations from the site locale. Developers 
can extend content adapters, scoring services, schema nodes, compatibility integrations,
and AI providers through the REST API, hooks, and filters. Analysis is cached where
appropriate, dashboard summaries use stored score data, and frontend output stays
lean.

#### Highlights

 * Deterministic 0-100 SEO score with category-level recommendations.
 * Gutenberg sidebar and Classic Editor meta box.
 * Search preview, Open Graph preview, and X/Twitter Card support.
 * Schema.org JSON-LD graph with site identity and breadcrumbs.
 * WooCommerce product SEO checks and Product schema.
 * WordPress XML Sitemap and robots.txt controls.
 * Technical SEO health, output inspection, and conflict visibility.
 * Exact-match redirect manager and privacy-preserving 404 monitor.
 * REST API for editor analysis and suggestions.
 * Page-builder compatibility for Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, Bricks, Beaver Builder,
   and Avada.
 * Optional provider-agnostic AI suggestions, disabled by default.
 * Multilingual translation infrastructure.
 * Developer hooks, filters, and extensibility points.

### External services

mcorucu SEO Tools works without external AI services. Deterministic analysis, SEO
scoring, deterministic suggestions, schema, social metadata, XML sitemap support,
redirects, and the 404 monitor run locally in WordPress.

Optional AI suggestions are available only when a site administrator explicitly 
enables AI, acknowledges the privacy notice, configures a provider/API key or local
endpoint, and an editor clicks an AI suggestion action. AI suggestions are optional
and do not affect SEO scoring. API keys are stored locally in the WordPress database
in the AI settings option and are not included in normal settings export/import.
mcorucu SEO Tools itself does not send AI data to the plugin author’s server.

When an AI action is requested, the configured provider may receive selected post,
page, product, or custom post type content; SEO title; meta description; focus keyword;
excerpt; title; slug; schema/social context; and the selected suggestion request,
such as title, description, keyword, headings, FAQ, schema, or content improvement.

#### OpenAI

Used for optional AI suggestions such as SEO title, meta description, keywords, 
headings, FAQ, schema, or content improvement. Data is sent only when AI is enabled/
configured and an editor requests an AI suggestion.

Endpoint:
 https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions

Terms:

Privacy:

headings, FAQ, schema, or content improvement. Data is sent only when AI is enabled/
configured and an editor requests an AI suggestion.

#### Google Gemini

headings, FAQ, schema, or content improvement. Data is sent only when AI is enabled/
configured and an editor requests an AI suggestion.

#### Ollama

Ollama is supported as a local or self-hosted provider. The plugin connects only
to the endpoint configured by the site administrator, usually a local or self-hosted
Ollama endpoint. Terms and privacy obligations depend on the administrator’s own
deployment.

Website:
 https://ollama.com/

#### Custom REST / LM Studio-compatible endpoint

Custom REST connects only to the endpoint URL configured by the site administrator.
It can be used with LM Studio-compatible local workflows or other compatible services.
There is no default third-party endpoint for Custom REST. Terms and privacy obligations
depend on the configured service.

#### WordPress AI Client note

mcorucu SEO Tools currently supports direct optional provider connections. If the
WordPress AI Client is available and stable in the target WordPress environment,
mcorucu SEO Tools may add support for it in a future release so site owners can 
use centrally configured AI providers. The plugin does not claim WordPress AI Client
support in this version.

## FAQ

### Does mcorucu SEO Tools send my content to external services?

No, not by default. The analyzer, score engine, deterministic suggestions, schema,
sitemap, redirects, and 404 monitor are local. Optional AI suggestions require administrator
opt-in, privacy acknowledgement, and an explicit editor action.

### Does AI change the SEO score?

No. AI only returns suggestions. The deterministic analyzer remains the source of
truth for the SEO score.

### Can mcorucu SEO Tools be used without AI?

Yes. mcorucu SEO Tools is fully usable without AI. AI is optional, disabled by default,
and separate from deterministic scoring.

### Does mcorucu SEO Tools support WooCommerce?

Yes. WooCommerce-specific product analysis and Product schema are gated and run 
only when WooCommerce is active.

### Does mcorucu SEO Tools support page builders?

Yes. The compatibility framework supports Gutenberg, Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, 
Bricks, Beaver Builder, Avada, and the Classic Editor.

### Does mcorucu SEO Tools replace other SEO plugins automatically?

No. It detects common SEO plugins and surfaces compatibility information, but it
does not disable other plugins or silently migrate data.

### Are redirects stored in post meta?

No. Redirects and 404 logs use plugin-owned custom tables with the `mcorucu_seo_tools_`
prefix. 404 logs aggregate request paths and do not store IP addresses.

### What happens on uninstall?

Data is kept by default. If the owner enables data removal before uninstalling, 
mcorucu SEO Tools removes its options, post meta, transients, capability, and custom
redirect/log tables.
