### Trusted by Over 3 Million Websites ###

From bloggers to agencies to large eCommerce stores, AIOSEO holds a 4.7 out of 5 star rating from over 5,000 reviews and is built by the team behind WPForms, MonsterInsights, and OptinMonster.

### AI SEO: Write and Optimize Content with AI ###

AIOSEO puts a complete AI SEO toolkit inside WordPress, so you can create optimized content faster and win at both traditional SEO and generative engine optimization (GEO) for AI search engines like ChatGPT.

* **AI Content Generator**
Break through writer's block and publish faster. Generate SEO titles, meta descriptions, FAQs, image alt text, and full articles in seconds with the built-in [AI Content Generator](https://aioseo.com/features/ai-content/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin 'AI Content'), and write or rewrite content right inside the editor with the AI Assistant block. Bulk AI actions handle titles, descriptions, and alt text across many posts at once.

* **AI Image Generator**
Create unique, on-brand images for your posts on demand with the built-in AI Image Generator, so you never have to pay for stock photos or open a design tool.

* **AI Schema Generator**
Generate accurate structured data with AI using smart analysis and custom prompts, so you win rich snippets without learning schema or writing a line of code.

* **AI Agents & Built-in MCP Server**
Manage your SEO just by chatting with AI. AIOSEO includes an MCP server and WordPress Abilities API support, so agents like Claude and Cursor can connect to your site and read, audit, and update its SEO data directly.

* **Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)**
Get found in AI search, not just Google. Generative engine optimization (GEO) is the new frontier of SEO, and AIOSEO generates an llms.txt file so AI engines like ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity can discover your content and surface it in their answers.

* **AI Search Rank Tracking**
Track how your brand and content show up across AI search (ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and other engines) with our AI Insights keyword report, so you can see whether AI is putting you in front of customers and improve it.

### What Makes AIOSEO Better than Yoast, Rank Math and SEOPress? ###

Our SEO features give you a competitive advantage over other WordPress SEO plugins like Yoast, Rank Math and SEOPress.

* **Redirection Manager**
Stop broken links and dead pages from quietly costing you traffic and rankings. Our [Redirection Manager](https://aioseo.com/features/redirection-manager/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin 'Redirection Manager') automatically monitors and logs 404 errors, fixes them, and safely redirects old or changed URLs (or your whole site when you move domains) so you keep the SEO value you have already earned.

* **Local Business SEO**
Rank higher on Google Maps and win customers away from your local competitors. Add your business hours, multiple locations, and contact details so Google can surface your phone number, email, and address in its Knowledge Panel and customers can reach you, all with our [Local SEO module](https://aioseo.com/features/local-seo/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin 'Local SEO').

* **Smart Schema Markup (aka Rich Snippets)**
Stand out in the search results and win more clicks with eye-catching rich snippets like star ratings, FAQs, prices, and recipes. Add FAQ, product, recipe, WooCommerce product, and dozens more schema types without touching code, plus the Organization and Person schema that power your Google Knowledge Graph panel, using our custom [Schema Generator](https://aioseo.com/features/rich-snippets-schema/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin 'Schema Generator').

* **Google Keyword Rank Tracking**
Know exactly where you rank and what to work on next. Track your Google keyword positions over time right inside your [WordPress dashboard](https://aioseo.com/features/search-statistics/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin 'Google Keyword Rank Tracker'), import keywords from Google Search Console, and uncover related keywords and new ranking opportunities with our Search Statistics module.

* **Author SEO (Google E-E-A-T)**
Build the author authority that Google rewards. Add [author profile pages, bio boxes, and author schema](https://aioseo.com/features/author-seo-google-e-e-a-t/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin 'Author SEO (E-E-A-T)') that strengthen your E-E-A-T signals, a trust factor that helps you rank and stay resilient through Google's Helpful Content updates.

* **AI Link Assistant**
Keep visitors on your site longer and send ranking power to the pages that matter most. Get smart internal link suggestions automatically and add them in a couple of clicks with our [internal linking algorithm](https://aioseo.com/features/internal-link-assistant/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin 'Link Assistant').

* **Unlimited Keywords**
Write content that actually ranks. Optimize for unlimited focus keywords with our TruSEO content analysis, which scores your on-page SEO and content readability and shows you exactly what to fix to climb the rankings.

* **Smart XML Sitemap**
Get your content discovered and indexed faster. Advanced XML sitemaps hand search engines a clear roadmap of your site (with one-click Google Search Console setup), plus a Video sitemap, News sitemap, RSS sitemap, and HTML sitemap.

* **Site Audit & SEO Checklist**
Find out exactly what is holding your rankings back. Get a full audit of every post and term, plus a step-by-step SEO checklist, with clear, prioritized fixes you can act on right away.

* **SEO Revisions**
Never wonder whether an SEO change helped or hurt. Keep a [full history of your SEO changes](https://aioseo.com/seo-revisions/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin 'SEO Revisions'), see their impact over time, and roll back to any previous version in one click.

* **Content Decay Tracking**
Catch declining content before it costs you traffic. Spot which pages are losing rankings and visits so you can refresh them and win that traffic back, with our [Search Statistics module](https://aioseo.com/features/search-statistics/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin 'Search Statistics').

* **Automatic Image SEO**
Get more traffic from Google Images with zero manual work. Generate image alt text with AI, plus automatic image titles and clean SEO filenames.

* **Smart Breadcrumbs**
Give visitors and Google an easy path through your site, and earn breadcrumb links in search results, with full JSON-LD schema support.

* **Robots.txt Editor & Robots Meta**
Control what search engines crawl and index, right from WordPress: edit your robots.txt and set per-page robots meta tags (noindex, nofollow, no archive, max snippet, and more), with no FTP or code needed.

* **Table of Contents**
Help readers and Google navigate your content, and earn jump-to links in the search results. Automatically generate a table of contents with our redesigned block (with multi-block and accordion layouts), and customize, hide, or reorder headings.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

Please visit our [complete AIOSEO documentation](https://aioseo.com/docs/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin) before requesting support for SEO from the AIOSEO team.

= Does AIOSEO use AI for SEO? =

Yes. AIOSEO is an AI SEO plugin. You can generate SEO titles, meta descriptions, FAQs, and full articles with the AI Content Generator, create images with the AI Image Generator, and build schema markup with AI. AIOSEO also includes an MCP server and WordPress Abilities API support, so AI agents like Claude can connect to your site and manage its SEO directly. With our llms.txt generator, you can also help your content rank in AI search results like ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews.

= Is AIOSEO free? =

Yes. AIOSEO has a free version that covers the SEO essentials — SEO titles and meta descriptions, an XML sitemap, schema markup, Google Search Console integration, and TruSEO content analysis — everything most sites need to start ranking. [AIOSEO Pro](https://aioseo.com/?utm_source=wprepo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=liteplugin) adds advanced features like the redirection manager, local SEO, keyword rank tracking, automatic internal linking, and WooCommerce SEO. You can start free and upgrade anytime.

= Can I switch from Yoast or Rank Math to AIOSEO? =

Yes, and it takes just a few clicks. AIOSEO's built-in importer migrates your SEO titles, meta descriptions, and settings from Yoast SEO, Rank Math, and SEOPress so your metadata carries over intact, with no re-optimization needed. It also imports redirects from popular redirect plugins, so most sites complete the switch in minutes.

= Does AIOSEO work with WooCommerce, Elementor, and other page builders? =

Yes. AIOSEO includes WooCommerce SEO for optimizing product pages and categories, and it integrates with Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Oxygen, WP Bakery, and SeedProd so you can edit your SEO settings and run TruSEO analysis right inside the builder. It also works in both the Gutenberg block editor and the Classic Editor.

= Does AIOSEO support multilingual and WPML sites? =

Yes. AIOSEO works with WPML, Weglot, and other multilingual plugins, and it generates a multilingual XML sitemap so search engines index every language version of your content. Your titles, meta descriptions, and schema stay correct across all your translated pages.

= Which themes does AIOSEO support? =

AIOSEO works with all WordPress themes. Simply enable AIOSEO to make your WordPress theme SEO friendly.

= Are AIOSEO sitemaps better than default WordPress sitemaps? =

Yes, AIOSEO smart sitemaps are a lot more optimized than the default WordPress sitemaps. Once you enable AIOSEO, our XML sitemaps will override the default WordPress sitemaps, so you can improve your SEO rankings.

We also offer advanced SEO sitemaps such as News Sitemap, Video Sitemap, and RSS Sitemap.

Our SEO sitemaps come with granular control such as links per sitemap, enable / disable post types or taxonomies, include / exclude specific links from sitemap, add additional non-WordPress pages to sitemaps, customize sitemap priority & frequency for each section of your site, and more.

= Will AIOSEO slow down my website? =

No. AIOSEO is built for performance — its code is optimized and menu pages and libraries are lazy-loaded so they only load when needed, keeping both your dashboard and your front end fast. Since page speed is itself a ranking factor, a fast, well-coded SEO plugin helps your rankings rather than hurting them.

= Do I really need an XML Sitemap? =

**Yes! XML Sitemaps help Google and other search engines to find all the pages of your website.**

An XML sitemap is a list of all the content on your website. The sitemap helps search engine bots to easily see all the content on your site in one place. The XML sitemap file is hidden from your human visitors, but search engines like Google can see it.

Without an XML sitemap, some of your web pages may never be included in Google search results, and won't get any traffic.

XML Sitemaps also help you tell Google which pages you DON'T want included in search results. This can help your SEO to prevent keyword cannibalization and duplicate content issues.

As part of your SEO strategy, **an XML sitemap can help you to improve your domain authority and unlock more traffic from Google, Bing and other search engines**.

AIOSEO can easily help you get your sitemaps listed inside Google Search Console so your content can start to get indexed today!
