TamRank SEO

Апісанне

TamRank is a WordPress SEO plugin that doesn’t just tell you what’s wrong, it shows you exactly what to fix. It brings the essentials together in one clean, uncluttered interface: meta titles and descriptions, social (Open Graph) previews, an XML sitemap, schema markup, redirects, 404 monitoring, your Search Console numbers and a continuous SEO audit with clear scoring.

Every screen stays clean and uncluttered: clear scores and plain-language steps on what to improve next, instead of traffic-light dots that read like a report card. It is calm, practical guidance that helps you improve your search rankings without turning SEO into a second job. If you have outgrown a heavier SEO plugin, TamRank is a clean, lightweight alternative to Yoast SEO and Rank Math.

Switching over? The built-in migration wizard imports your existing Yoast SEO and Rank Math metadata, so you keep your titles, descriptions and settings.

Core features (free):

• Meta title, description and canonical management per post, page and taxonomy term
• A focus keyword plus up to four secondary keywords per page, with live scoring as you write
• Google Search Console connection: clicks, impressions and average position in your WordPress dashboard (last 7 and 28 days)
• Social (Open Graph) title, description and image
• XML sitemap with configurable content types
• Robots.txt editor
• Schema markup builder with 14 types, reusable templates and custom JSON-LD
• SEO audit overview with scoring and filter pills
• 404 monitor and redirect manager, including regex rules with $1-$9 backreferences
• HTML sitemap and breadcrumbs for the front end, as a block, a widget, a shortcode or a template tag
• Migration wizard for Yoast SEO and Rank Math data
• Automatic indexing requests on publish and a manual “Request indexing” action per post
• IndexNow: tell Bing, Yandex, Naver, Seznam, Amazon and Yep the moment you publish (off by default)
• The full set of robots directives per page, post and term — noarchive, nosnippet, noimageindex, max-snippet and more
• Automatic WebP conversion with picture-tag output, and a bulk run for your existing media library
• Automatic alt text from a pattern you choose, on upload and across your existing media library
• RSS feed optimisation, so sites that republish your feed link back to the original
• Built-in .htaccess editor with a backup before every write and an automatic restore if the site stops responding

PRO features:

• AI meta generator — titles, descriptions and alt text via a hosted AI endpoint
• Topical authority clustering and internal linking suggestions
• SEO audit per-post detail panels — full per-page breakdown with recommendations
• SEO change tracker — every edit logged with score impact
• Priority engine, slug synonyms, redirect chain detection
• Index status column and daily bulk index-status scanning
• Google PageSpeed Insights integration

TamRank PRO is a separate add-on, not bundled in this free plugin. After purchase you receive the PRO add-on by email and install it like any other plugin; it then unlocks the features listed above. The free plugin is fully functional on its own and never installs or downloads the add-on for you.

External services

TamRank communicates with api.tamrank.com (operated by TamRank) for the following purposes. All calls are HTTPS-only.

• Setup tips opt-in (optional, requires consent). When you check “Yes, send the tips” on the wizard success screen, the plugin sends your site’s admin email, the chosen UI language, your site URL, the plugin version and an anonymous onboarding-variant marker (used only to pick which tips series to send) to https://api.tamrank.com/v1/sites/email-optin. This enrolls you in a short series of educational emails about TamRank features. Unsubscribing from any email removes you from the list. No tracking pixels, no marketing blasts. Without consent this call is never made.
• Site registration (on explicit action — not on activation). Activating the plugin does not contact any server. The first time you click “Connect with Google” to link Google Search Console, the plugin requests a free API key from https://api.tamrank.com. To prove you control the domain before any key is issued, the plugin runs a short ownership handshake: it asks the TamRank server for a one-time token, briefly publishes that token at https://your-site/.well-known/tamrank-challenge.txt, and the TamRank server fetches it back to confirm the match. That token is single-use and short-lived, it is not the API key, and the path returns 404 when no handshake is in progress. Only your site domain, site URL and plugin version are sent. The API key is requested once, cached, and is required for TamRank’s hosted SEO services (Google Search Console integration, schema validation).
• Google Search Console data (proxied through TamRank). When you connect Google Search Console, the OAuth authorisation and every subsequent Search Console request — impressions, clicks, average position and per-page index status — are routed through https://api.tamrank.com/v1/search-console/..., not called against Google directly. TamRank performs the OAuth token exchange on your behalf and returns the data, which is then cached in your WordPress database. Nothing is sent until you explicitly click “Connect with Google”.
• Automatic indexing / “Request indexing” (optional, off by default). When automatic indexing is enabled (it is off by default) or you click “Request indexing” on a post, the post’s URL — not its content — is sent to https://api.tamrank.com/v1/search-console/index-url (and its status checked via .../index-status) so the page can be submitted to search engines. This requires a connected Search Console property and never runs without one.
• IndexNow (optional, off by default). IndexNow is switched off on a fresh install and the plugin makes no IndexNow call until you enable it under Settings → General. Switching the toggle on is what triggers the network activity: at that moment the plugin creates a random site key, publishes it as a small text file at https://your-site/<key>.txt (so the search engines can verify you control the domain), and — if your site does not have an API key yet — runs the same one-time ownership handshake described under “Site registration” above to obtain one. After that, publishing or updating a page sends that page’s URL — not its content — to https://api.tamrank.com/v1/indexnow/submit, which forwards it to https://api.indexnow.org. IndexNow shares one submission with every participating search engine (Amazon, Bing, Naver, Seznam.cz, Yandex, Yep). Pages marked noindex, pages of content types you excluded, drafts, revisions and password-protected pages are never submitted. Switching the toggle off stops every submission; the key file itself stays reachable so a verification the search engines already started can still finish — it contains a random token and nothing else, and grants no access to your site. IndexNow protocol: https://www.indexnow.org/
• License activation (PRO add-on only). The separately-installed TamRank PRO add-on sends its license key together with your site’s API key to https://api.tamrank.com/v1/sites/upgrade to verify and activate the license. The free plugin has no license-key field and never makes this call; it is listed here only for completeness.
• AI features (PRO add-on only). Provided by the separate PRO add-on: AI meta generation, alt-text generation, internal-link suggestions and topical-authority analysis send the relevant post content to https://api.tamrank.com/v1/... endpoints. These features are off by default and only fire on user action. The free plugin sends no content to these endpoints.

In addition, the separate TamRank PRO add-on uses one third-party Google service directly:

• Google PageSpeed Insights (PRO add-on only). PageSpeed testing is a PRO feature. When you run a PageSpeed test in the PRO add-on, the URL of the page being tested is sent (using your own Google API key) to Google’s PageSpeed Insights API (https://www.googleapis.com/pagespeedonline/v5/runPagespeed) and the resulting performance metrics are returned. This only happens on your explicit action. The free plugin does not make this call.
