We handle the technical SEO basics. The rest is on you—fill in the right info and you'll get 100/100 on Lighthouse.
Set your blog's language in Settings → Localization.
This adds the proper lang attribute in your HTML. Important for search engines and accessibility. Default is English.
By default, your blog is set to noindex—search engines won't index it.
Free plan: Your blog stays in noindex unless you request manual approval. We do this to prevent spam. Contact us if you want to be indexed.
Paid plan: You control it. Switch to "Public & Indexed" whenever you want.
Find this in Settings → SEO & Indexing.
By default, AI crawlers are blocked from accessing your content. This includes bots like GPTBot (OpenAI), Claude-Web (Anthropic), and others used to train AI models.
We believe your content belongs to you. That's why we chose privacy by design—you have to explicitly opt-in if you want AI companies to use your work.
To allow AI bots: Check "Allow AI bots to crawl your content" in Settings → SEO & Indexing.
When blocked, we add the appropriate directives to your robots.txt file. This tells AI crawlers not to access your site. Note that this relies on crawlers respecting robots.txt but most major AI companies do.
Homepage: Set your blog description in Settings → General. Used as meta description for your homepage.
Posts: Fill the Excerpt field when writing. This becomes your post's meta description and preview text when shared.
Don't skip this. It's what shows up in search results and social shares.
Default thumbnail: Upload an image in Settings → SEO & Indexing. Used when someone shares your homepage on social media. Ideal ratio is 2:1 or 1.91:1.
Post images: The first image in your post becomes the OG image. If there's no image, we use your default thumbnail.
Social accounts: Add your Facebook and X/Twitter URLs in Settings → SEO & Indexing. We use them for structured data (helps search engines verify your identity) and proper Twitter cards.
Always add alt text to your images. It's good for SEO and essential for accessibility.
Do this when you insert an image in the editor.
If you fill these fields properly, your SEO is solid. We handle sitemaps, structured data, performance, and all the technical stuff.
The rest is writing good content.
