原文外掛簡介
RankReady is a WordPress plugin built for the AI search layer, the answers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews show before anyone reaches a blue link. Drop it in alongside your existing SEO plugin (Rank Math, Yoast, AIOSEO, any of them) and give those engines a clean, readable copy of everything you publish. No conflicts. No replacement. Zero frontend bloat.

Traditional SEO plugins optimize for Google’s classic results. RankReady adds the layer above them. Google’s Open Knowledge Format (OKF), llms.txt, FAQ schema, Markdown endpoints, WebMCP and AI crawler controls all decide how easily AI engines can find, read and understand your content. This is LLM SEO and AI search optimization for WordPress, covering generative engine optimization (GEO) and answer engine optimization (AEO), built to work with the WordPress SEO plugin you already use.
An honest note, because a lot of plugins in this space are not. RankReady cannot promise you rankings, citations or traffic. No plugin can, and anyone who says otherwise is guessing. What it does is remove every reason an AI assistant would skip or misread your pages. Whether it then quotes you comes down to your content.
AI SEO tools for WordPress — AEO, GEO and LLM SEO in one plugin
llms.txt and llms-full.txt. The AI-native sitemap. An index of your best content, written for LLMs
Markdown endpoints on every page. Clean .md your words, without the theme wrapped around them
AI summaries and FAQ schema. Key Takeaways and FAQPage JSON-LD, generated on your click with your own LLM key
Google’s Open Knowledge Format (OKF). Your whole site as one clean bundle
WebMCP and MCP. A card telling AI agents and LLM clients exactly what they may read
AI crawler control in robots.txt. Allow the AI bots you want, block the ones you don’t, plus Content Signals
Author, Article, Speakable and FAQPage schema. E-E-A-T structured data merged into your SEO plugin, never duplicated
AI visibility insights. Which AI crawlers visited, and who arrived from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude or Gemini
Your WordPress SEO plugin handles Google. RankReady handles what comes after. That is ChatGPT SEO, AEO (answer engine optimization), GEO optimization (generative engine optimization) and LLM SEO, all from one plugin.
A quick walkthrough of the whole plugin.
Built by HostMyBlog.
Works alongside your WordPress SEO plugin — Yoast, Rank Math, AIOSEO, SEOPress and more
RankReady is not a WordPress SEO plugin and does not replace one. It is the LLM SEO layer that sits on top of the SEO plugin you already run, handling AEO (answer engine optimization) and GEO (generative engine optimization). Compatible with Yoast SEO, Rank Math, AIOSEO, SEOPress, The SEO Framework, Slim SEO and Squirrly SEO. Every release is tested against all seven.
Yoast SEO
Rank Math
All in One SEO (AIOSEO)
SEOPress
The SEO Framework
Slim SEO
Squirrly SEO
In every one of those combinations:
No duplicate schema. RankReady merges its structured data into theirs instead of printing a second block.
One canonical tag. Never two.
Your titles, meta descriptions and sitemaps stay theirs. RankReady does not touch them.
If your SEO plugin already handles something, RankReady steps aside.
AI SEO that coexists with your SEO plugin — zero frontend impact, no duplicate schema
Install RankReady, optionally pick an LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, or DeepSeek) for the AI Summary and FAQ schema generators, and you’re set. RankReady auto-detects your active SEO plugin and never emits duplicate schema.
No JavaScript on your front end. Ever.
One small stylesheet, loaded only on pages actually showing a summary, FAQ or author box
No API calls on page load. All AI generation runs in the WordPress admin, on your click
Core Web Vitals unaffected
Bring your own LLM key. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini or DeepSeek
llms.txt and llms-full.txt — the AI-native sitemap for LLMs
RankReady serves the llmstxt.org standard at /llms.txt (a curated index of your best content) and /llms-full.txt (the full content concatenated as Markdown). LLMs and AI crawlers read these files first to understand your site. It is the single highest-leverage AI SEO file you can publish. Configurable post types, max post count, category and tag exclusions, and a per-domain brand identity you control from the AI Crawlers tab.
/llms.txt. A curated index of your best content
/llms-full.txt. Your full content as one Markdown file
You choose what goes in. Post types, maximum count, category and tag exclusions
Your brand, stated once. Site name, summary and about section, set from the AI Crawlers tab
Multilingual ready. Emits hreflang discovery links when WPML, Polylang, TranslatePress, Weglot or GTranslate is detected
AI Summary generator — Key Takeaways with Speakable schema, any LLM
Generate “Key Takeaways” for any post or page using your chosen LLM. Short, quotable AI summaries are what an answer engine lifts when it builds a response.
Sits above your content as a styled block your readers see too
Carries Speakable schema, the JSON-LD that voice assistants read aloud
Generate from anywhere. The Regenerate button in the post editor, the Gutenberg block, or the Elementor widget
OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini or DeepSeek
Unlimited manual generations. No caps, no counters
FAQ schema generator — FAQPage JSON-LD from real questions
A strong signal for AI Overviews. RankReady can query DataForSEO for the real “People Also Ask” questions ranking for your post’s focus keyword, then has your chosen LLM write the answers. Output is FAQPage JSON-LD, the structured data Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity and other AI search engines can read directly, instead of inferring Q&A pairs from plain article text. Don’t use DataForSEO? Type your own questions and let the LLM answer them.
Pulls real “People Also Ask” questions ranking for your focus keyword, via DataForSEO
Writes the answers with your chosen LLM
Outputs FAQPage JSON-LD, a documented schema.org type
No DataForSEO? No problem. Type your own questions and let the AI answer them
Unlimited manual generations
Setup guide is in the FAQ section below.
Author Box with E-E-A-T schema and Person JSON-LD
E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) is how search engines and AI models judge which sources to trust. It is the framework Google sets out in its Search Quality Rater Guidelines. RankReady ships a basic Author Box with name, job title, employer, bio, headshot and basic sameAs links, published as Person JSON-LD alongside Article, Speakable and FAQPage schema, so AI search engines and LLMs can attribute your content to a real author. It auto-detects Rank Math, Yoast and AIOSEO and skips duplicate output.
Author details. Name, job title, employer, bio, headshot
sameAs links connecting the author to their profiles elsewhere
Article, Speakable and FAQPage JSON-LD included
Never doubles up. Detects Rank Math, Yoast and AIOSEO and defers to their E-E-A-T output
Place it anywhere. Gutenberg block or Elementor widget
Markdown endpoints — clean .md pages for AI agents and LLMs
Every published post and page is served as clean Markdown at /post-slug.md with YAML frontmatter (title, author, dates, language, description, categories, tags). AI agents and LLM clients such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT and custom clients all work far more cheaply with clean Markdown than with a full HTML page. Content negotiation via Accept: text/markdown lets crawlers fetch the format they prefer with no URL changes.
Add .md to any URL. yoursite.com/your-post.md
Or ask by header. Agents sending Accept: text/markdown get Markdown at your normal URL
Your visitors are unaffected. Browsers still get the normal page
Frontmatter included. Title, author, dates, language, description, categories and tags
The size difference is the point. A normal page carries your theme, sliders, popups and scripts. The Markdown version carries your words. On our own site a page drops from 4.7 MB to 18 KB, roughly 260 times smaller, so an AI reaches your actual content instead of running out of room before it gets there.
Which AI agents and LLMs read Markdown today
They ask for Markdown: Claude Code, GitHub Copilot Chat and CLI, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, OpenCode
Halfway: OpenAI’s Codex CLI reads your page first, then follows the Markdown link RankReady adds
Not yet: ChatGPT browsing, Gemini and Perplexity still request the normal page
That last line is why RankReady never relies on Markdown alone. llms.txt, the .md pages and your schema all cover the tools that have not caught up.
Open Knowledge Format (OKF) — Google’s AI agent standard for your whole site
Google’s Open Knowledge Format (OKF v0.1) hands your whole site to AI agents as one clean bundle of Markdown, instead of making them scrape your HTML. It is vendor neutral, so it works for Google AI Overviews and every other engine alike. Turn it on from the AI Crawlers tab and RankReady serves a complete bundle at /okf/:
/okf/index.md, a manifest of every page on your site, grouped by type, each linked to its concept file
/okf/{slug}.md, one Markdown concept per post, tagged with type, description, canonical URL and tags
/okf/log.md, a dated change history so an agent sees what is new
One-click .zip export for upload to Google Cloud Knowledge Catalog or a Git repository
Built entirely on your own server. Nothing is sent to Google or anyone else. It refreshes when you publish or edit, and anything set to noindex stays out of it.
WebMCP and MCP — let AI agents discover your content
RankReady publishes a WebMCP card on your site: a short file telling an AI agent exactly what it may read, so it can ask properly instead of scraping. WebMCP and MCP are how AI agents are learning to discover a site’s content programmatically.
Nothing extra to run. No bundled server, no separate service
Read only. Agents can look. They can never change anything
Public content only. Users, settings, plugins and themes are never listed
It also registers those abilities with the Model Context Protocol through the WordPress Abilities API, so on WordPress 7.0 the official MCP Adapter picks them up automatically.
Insights — AI visibility, AI crawler activity and referrals
The Insights tab is your AI visibility dashboard: real, server-side AI SEO analytics on AI crawler activity and AI referral traffic from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot, with no third-party scripts.
Training and citation bots. Which AI crawlers fetched which pages: GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, OAI-SearchBot, Google-Extended and more, split into training crawlers and the ones that fetch a page while answering someone. A visit means your page was read, not that you were quoted.
Real AI referrals. Real people clicking through from chatgpt.com, perplexity.ai, claude.ai, gemini.google.com and copilot.microsoft.com, tracked from the HTTP referer.
Content freshness scanner. Buckets your posts into Fresh, Going stale and Stale, with a one-click dateModified refresh to signal recency to AI crawlers.
All counts are stored on your own server. Nothing is sent to HostMyBlog.
AI crawler control — allow or block 29 AI bots in robots.txt
Most AI SEO plugins only let you invite AI crawlers. RankReady also lets you block them, per bot, straight from your robots.txt.
Allow or block, bot by bot. 29 AI crawlers listed by name, including GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, Claude-Web, anthropic-ai, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, GoogleOther, Applebot-Extended, Bingbot, Meta-ExternalAgent, FacebookBot, MistralAI-User, Bytespider, Amazonbot, cohere-ai, DuckAssistBot, YouBot, PhindBot, CCBot, AI2Bot, Diffbot and PetalBot
Stop a scraper hammering your server. Bytespider and CCBot are the usual suspects
Let search in, keep training out
Block always wins. If a bot is ticked in both lists, blocking is what happens
Nothing changes until you ask. Leave the block list empty and your robots.txt stays exactly as it was
Your choices are written straight into your robots.txt, both the WordPress virtual robots.txt and a physical robots.txt file if another plugin has taken that URL over. It also adds Content Signals, the newer standard that lets you state what your content may be used for. You control the ai-train, search and ai-input directives separately.
Compatible with your caching plugin, CDN and host
Caching is the number one reason llms.txt, Markdown and robots.txt quietly stop working. RankReady writes the right bypass rules into your caching plugin’s own settings, so they hold at server level.
Compatible with: WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, WP Fastest Cache, Breeze, SG Optimizer, Hummingbird, Cache Enabler, Comet Cache, Swift Performance, NitroPack, Perfmatters, Cloudflare APO, Pantheon, Kinsta and WP Engine.
On Cloudflare it can create the cache rule for you from the Settings tab.
Diagnostics — 22 live checks
Tests every file live. Not a checklist. It actually fetches them
Spots conflicts with your active SEO plugins and caching plugins, and checks rewrite rules and REST routes
Every failure comes with a one-line fix
One-click report you can paste into a support ticket
