Free and open source

Alongside metadata, schema and XML sitemaps, the listing describes tools for editorial checks, newsroom coordination, redirects and site maintenance.
A listing is not a ranking promise
Directory availability makes the plugin discoverable and installable through WordPress. It does not guarantee rankings, crawling, indexing, traffic or search feature inclusion.
How to install from WordPress.org
- In your WordPress dashboard, open Plugins → Add New.
- Search for PublishRank and open its official plugin listing.

Before switching SEO plugins
Back up your site, test on staging when possible, and review which plugin owns titles, schema and sitemaps before changing your setup. PublishRank does not guarantee rankings, crawling, indexing, traffic or inclusion in Google News.
