Simplicity SEO Audit scans your WordPress site and gives you a clear SEO health score with specific, actionable recommendations. No technical expertise required \u2014 install, scan, and see exactly what needs fixing.<\/p>\n\n
Content Checks (10):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Technical Checks (7):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Each check produces a score from 0 to 100. Content checks use ratio-based scoring \u2014 for example, if 80% of your pages have good titles, the Title Tag score is approximately 80. Pages with minor issues (e.g., slightly short title) count as half credit, not zero.<\/p>\n\n The final score is a weighted average of all 17 checks. Checks that matter more for SEO (like Title Tags, weight 8) count more than less critical checks (like Permalink Structure, weight 2).<\/p>\n\n Grading scale:<\/strong>\n* A = 90-100 (Excellent)\n* B = 80-89 (Good)\n* C = 65-79 (Needs improvement)\n* D = 50-64 (Poor)\n* F = 0-49 (Critical issues)<\/p>\n\n A score of 100 means zero issues found. If any issues exist, the maximum score is 99.<\/p>\n\n Not all pages are equal. The plugin uses a tiered system for taxonomy terms:<\/p>\n\n Low-priority terms are flagged for information but don't affect your score. This prevents product attributes from unfairly dragging down your SEO score.<\/p>\n\n Developers can customize tiers with the Unlike most lightweight SEO plugins that only read database content, Simplicity SEO Audit fetches the actual rendered HTML of each page \u2014 exactly what Google sees. This means:<\/p>\n\n If a page cannot be fetched (e.g., password-protected), the plugin falls back to the database content.<\/p>\n\n The plugin provides a REST API endpoint for external integrations:<\/p>\n\n The token is auto-generated on activation and stored in the database. The endpoint returns site URL, page counts, audit summary, per-check scores, and pricing tier information. It is read-only and uses timing-safe token comparison.<\/p>\n\n This plugin connects to seo.simplicity.gr<\/a> in the following ways:<\/p>\n\n CTA Links<\/strong>: The plugin dashboard includes a \"Get the Full Report\" link that directs you to seo.simplicity.gr. The link includes your site URL and a locally-generated API token as URL parameters.<\/p><\/li>\n REST API Endpoint<\/strong>: The plugin registers a REST API endpoint ( Or install via ZIP:<\/p>\n\n Up to 200 pages, proportionally sampled across your content types. If your site has 600 products, 30 pages, and 20 posts, the sample will reflect those proportions.<\/p><\/dd>\n The plugin fetches the rendered HTML of each page (up to 200 HTTP requests to your own site). This is what makes the results accurate \u2014 we see what Google sees. Typical scan time is 1-3 minutes.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Products, product categories, product tags, and product attributes are all supported with appropriate scoring tiers.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Because we fetch the rendered HTML, content from Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, Oxygen, Bricks, and other page builders is fully analyzed.<\/p><\/dd>\n Simplicity SEO Audit counts words in the rendered HTML content area, not just the database post_content. This includes product descriptions, related product sections, and other template-generated content. The word count threshold is 300 for posts\/pages and 30 for taxonomy terms.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. When you delete (not just deactivate) the plugin, all scan results, tokens, and transients are removed from the database.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes.
