Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about The SEO Framework – Fast, Automated, Effortless.

Absolutely! It will stay free as well, without ads, tracking, bloat, or nags! This plugin is slim yet all-inclusive. It's 100% freeware, not crippleware.
No. We treat this plugin as a premium plugin already.
SEO experts that use advanced tools such as Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, and Google Analytics prefer using The SEO Framework because it doesn't try to do their job haphazardly. To correctly analyze your website, it must be done from the outside. If we load these features on your site, bad robots will cause thousands of false positives that fill your database with useless information that doesn't apply to search engines. We refrain from this because it won't ever help you anyway. I have a feature request, a question, or found a bug. Please visit the support forums and kindly tell us about it. We'll try to get back to you within a week. Typically, we reply within three days.
Any input is much appreciated, and everything will be considered. Please visit the GitHub project page to submit issues or even pull requests. Learn more about contributing.
We use different colors to convey messages. Red is an error that you must resolve. Yellow is a non-critical warning that you may want to address. Green is good. Blue is informational and situational. Gray is undefined or unprocessable. The sitemap doesn't contain categories, images, etc. Not having every single page listed is not an issue. Search engines love crawling WordPress because its structure is consistent and well known. If a visitor can't find a page, then why would a search engine? Don't rely on your sitemap, but on your content and website's usability. Check out our Extension Manager. It brings extensions, like Articles, that fill in the gaps via modern and more robust means. The sitemap contains unwanted links. The SEO Framework takes all publicly queryable posts, pages, and CPT and puts them in the sitemap. If you don't want a page in the sitemap, consider enabling the noindex option for it. This option will also remove the page from search engine result pages. If the link shouldn't be in the sitemap because it's meant for structural reasons, then inform the plugin or theme author that created them. You should tell the author to check out the "public and rewrite post type arguments." The plugin or theme author should know what that means. In the meantime, you can disable SEO for the unwanted entries via the "General SEO Settings" under "Exclusions."
Google warns about the keyword stuffing approach implemented by some other SEO plugins. It forces users to write unnatural content, and it can have adverse effects on your site's ranking. Modern search engines use AI to understand the context of your articles. This means that as long as you write relevant content, you shouldn't have to worry about keywords.
The JSON-LD scripts are search engine helpers that tell search engines how to connect and index the site. We do this via the Schema.org standard. They can tell the search engine if your site contains an internal search engine, which social sites you're connected to, and what page structure you're using. This is also referred to as structured data.
The SEO Framework outputs hidden breadcrumbs for search engines to find via its Schema.org settings. You can also output these breadcrumbs visually in your theme by using a shortcode.
