Lightweight, complete SEO — meta tags, schema, XML sitemaps, breadcrumbs, social previews & content scoring. Fast, automated, no bloat, no upsells.

== Description ==

Smart SEO Booster is a lightweight, modular plugin that gives you every SEO fundamental that actually moves rankings — without the bloat or upsell walls of the big plugins. It automates titles, meta descriptions, Open Graph & Twitter Cards, JSON-LD schema, XML sitemaps and breadcrumbs, and shows you a live search/social preview with a real-time content score right in the editor.

**Features:**
* XML sitemaps (posts, pages, custom post types & images) at /sitemap.xml, referenced from robots.txt
* Breadcrumbs via shortcode `[smart_seo_breadcrumbs]`, template tag, and BreadcrumbList schema
* JSON-LD schema — 14 per-post types (Article, BlogPosting, Product, Recipe, Event, HowTo, and more)
* Automatic titles & meta descriptions with a template variable system (%%title%%, %%sitename%%, %%sep%%, %%excerpt%%…)
* Open Graph & Twitter Cards with live preview and featured-image fallback
* Per-post SEO meta box: focus keyword, canonical, robots, social — with live Google & social previews
* Real-time SEO score: admin bar badge, dashboard widget, post-list column, per-post analysis
* Search-engine verification for Google, Bing, Pinterest & Yandex
* Content audit: word count, headings, image alt coverage, internal links
* One-click import from Yoast SEO and Rank Math (never overwrites your work)
* Redirection manager (301/302/307) with a 404 log
* Bulk SEO editor to edit titles & descriptions across posts at once
* WooCommerce Product schema and product Open Graph tags
* Local SEO shortcode/block with LocalBusiness schema (geo & opening hours)
* Site-wide SEO audit dashboard with score gauge, distribution chart & opportunities
* Google Analytics 4 & Microsoft Clarity integration; Google/Bing/Yandex/Baidu/Pinterest verification

* Automatic image alt text; publish/updated date structured data
* Blocks: social share, call-to-action, breadcrumb, and dates — with ready-made patterns
* Professional admin UI with Dashicons (no emoji), translation-ready
