Descripción
itdatex SEO is a deliberately lean alternative to the large SEO suites: no traffic lights, no «content analysis», no analytics call. The plugin delivers the metadata a WordPress site needs for search engines and social preview – and nothing else.
What the plugin does
- Meta description – built from the excerpt or the first 158 characters of the content, overridable per post via a meta box.
- Open Graph –
og:title,og:description,og:image,og:type,og:urlfor Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Slack. - Twitter Card –
summary_large_imagewhen an image is available, otherwisesummary. - JSON-LD –
Organization,WebSite,WebPage,Article(with author and date),BreadcrumbList. - Canonical URL – set consistently; the core
rel_canonicalhandler is deregistered. - Webmaster tool verifications – meta tags for Bing, Google Search Console, Yandex Webmaster (only emitted when configured).
- IndexNow – optional ping to Bing/Yandex IndexNow on publish/update, disabled by default (see «External Services» below).
What the plugin does not do
- No keyword score, no «SEO traffic light score», no cornerstone content concept.
- No analytics, no tracking, no user profiling.
- No XML sitemap generator – WordPress core has done this natively since 5.5.
- No redirect manager – that belongs at the web server level.
External Services
This plugin does not make any external HTTP calls itself, unless you explicitly enable IndexNow.
IndexNow (optional, disabled by default):
- What: On every publish or update of a public post type, the URL is sent to the IndexNow protocol (
https://api.indexnow.org/indexnow) so Bing, Yandex and other participating search engines can pick up the change immediately. - When: Only if an IndexNow key is configured under Settings -> itdatex SEO. Without a key: not a single call.
- What is sent: The site’s hostname, the IndexNow key, the key location (
https://your-domain/<key>.txt) and the URL of the post just published. No content, no user data. - Provider and terms: IndexNow is an open protocol, operated among others by Microsoft (Bing) and Yandex. Terms of use: https://www.indexnow.org/terms. Privacy: https://www.bing.com/webmaster/help/what-is-indexnow-2b2ce5b1
If you do not want IndexNow, simply leave the key field empty – then no HTTP request is sent to external servers.

FAQ
-
Does it conflict with Yoast SEO or Rank Math?
-
Yes. If a second SEO plugin also writes canonical tags, Open Graph or JSON-LD, you will get duplicates in the
<head>. itdatex SEO is designed as a stand-alone plugin – running it in parallel with a large suite makes no sense. -
Why no XML sitemap?
-
WordPress core has provided native sitemaps at
/wp-sitemap.xmlsince 5.5. A second sitemap generator is just bloat. -
How does the OG image work?
-
Order: (1) URL entered manually in the SEO meta box, (2) featured image, (3) default OG image from the plugin settings. Recommended: 1200×630 pixels.
-
What language is the JSON-LD output in?
-
Fixed to
de-DE, since the plugin is written for the German market. If you run multilingual sites, use a specialized plugin.
