Whether you run a blog, a business website or an online shop: every page, post and category gets its own SEO fields, and you decide exactly what the world sees. #### What WP Smart SEO generates for you For every **Page, Post and Category**, the plugin automatically outputs: * `og:type`, `og:title`, `og:description`, `og:image` — for perfect Facebook & LinkedIn previews * `twitter:title`, `twitter:description`, `twitter:image` — for crisp Twitter/X cards * **Meta Robots Tag** — fine-grained control with `index`, `follow`, `noindex`,` nofollow` #### 🤖 AI Clipboard Buttons Working with AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini? With a single click, WP Smart SEO copies your page text, blog post or product description — together with a ready- made prompt — straight to your clipboard. Paste it into your favourite AI and get an optimised SEO text in seconds. _Mit einem Klick den Seiteninhalt inklusive Prompt in die Zwischenablage kopieren und direkt in die lieblings-KI eingeben — SEO-Texte schneller als je zuvor._ #### 🌍 Multilingual WP Smart SEO is available in **English** and **German** — more languages welcome via the WordPress translation community. #### 🔍 SEO Overview in Post & Page Lists Your SEO titles and descriptions are shown directly in the WordPress post and page overview — so you can spot missing or weak SEO texts at a glance, without opening every single entry. #### ✏️ Smart Auto-Fill When you enter the page title, it is automatically pre-filled into the SEO title field — saving you time while still letting you customise it whenever you need to. #### 📏 Character Counter Built-in character counters for title and description fields help you stay within the recommended lengths for Google — no guesswork required. #### Recommended companion plugins * Need a sitemap?
