About yourseo Reviews and SEO
From the official readme Β· v3.0.1Description
yourseo is an all-in-one SEO suite for WordPress. Rank tracking, SEO audits, an on-page editor, automatic schema markup and Google review widgets β every module runs inside the WordPress admin, no separate account, no API keys, no subscription.
How it works
- Install the plugin: Search the WordPress plugin library and activate.
- Run the setup guide: Connect your Google Business for reviews + ratings, then trigger your first SEO audit so the dashboard has a real score from minute one.
- Use what you need: Build review widgets from the template gallery, set up to 3 keywords in the Rank Tracker, edit titles + meta descriptions per post in the On-Page Editor, and let the plugin emit Article / Organization / LocalBusiness / Breadcrumb schema automatically.
- Migrate from Yoast or Rank Math: One-click import keeps your existing titles, descriptions, focus keyphrases, canonicals and noindex settings.
Features
- 5 review-widget layouts (Badge, Slider, Grid, List, Sidebar) β each with a Light/Dark mode toggle and per-layout style variants (border, shadow, stacked, summary, spotlight, masonry and more), picked from a single template gallery
- Responsive sizing per breakpoint β set
size-mobile,size-tabletandsize-desktopdirectly in the shortcode (accepts px, em, rem). Sensible defaults work everywhere, fine-tuning takes one number. - Em-based rendering β avatars, stars, padding and text scale proportionally with the size attribute, not just the text
- JSON-LD rich snippets β the plugin emits Schema.org structured data on every public page (WebSite, Organization or LocalBusiness, Article, WebPage, BreadcrumbList, CollectionPage). When you have a Google Business connected, the aggregate star rating is embedded on the homepage so Google can render stars in the search results
- SEO Audit β one click runs a full SEO check of your site directly inside the admin: score 0β100, Core Web Vitals (LCP, FCP, CLS, TTFB, TBT) measured against Google’s PageSpeed Insights, and a categorized findings list. Free plan: one audit every 30 days per site
- On-page SEO editor β a sidebar in the post and page editor (block editor and classic page builders) for the SEO title, meta description, focus keyphrase, slug, canonical URL, social share image and noindex, with a live Google preview and on-page checks. An SEO status column in the posts list shows which content still needs work
- Import from Yoast SEO and Rank Math β bring your existing titles, descriptions, focus keyphrases, canonical URLs, social images and noindex settings across in one click (only empty fields are filled, nothing is overwritten)
- Rank Tracker with history β track up to 3 keywords on Google; once a keyword has two or more checks the plugin draws its position trend over time, with a sparkline per keyword
- Guided setup and a redesigned dashboard β a short setup guide connects your Google reviews and runs your first SEO audit, and the dashboard shows your SEO score at a glance
- One line of code, no cookies, no tracking of site visitors
- Async loading, no impact on Core Web Vitals
- Works with any common theme and page builder

This free plugin is fully functional on its own. A separate paid plugin with additional features (auto-refresh, per-post schema overrides, multi-location) is available directly from https://yourseo.app β it is not distributed via the WordPress.org plugin directory.
Privacy Policy
This plugin connects to servers operated by yourseo (Shkelzen Aliu, Dollbergstr. 1b, 83135 Schechen, Germany) to provide the widget functionality. No personal data of your site visitors is sent to yourseo β only data you yourself enter in the plugin admin, and the technical request data required to serve the widget script to your visitors:
Admin actions (only when you actively do something in the plugin admin):
- When searching for a Google Business: the search term you typed
- When creating a widget: the Place ID of your Google Business + the domain of your WordPress site (to link the widget to your site)
- On a manual refresh: the Place ID + your site domain
- When saving keywords in the Rank Tracker: each keyword string + country code + the domain of your WordPress site (so we can query the Google rankings and identify your domain in the results)
- When running an SEO Audit: the URL of your WordPress site (so we can crawl the live page and measure Core Web Vitals via the Google PageSpeed API)
Frontend delivery (when a visitor opens a page that has the widget embedded):
- The widget ID (a UUID) is sent from the visitor’s browser to cdn.yourseo.app to fetch the widget JavaScript file
- Cloudflare, used as a CDN, processes standard HTTP logs (IP address, user agent) in line with the Cloudflare privacy terms
The plugin itself sets no cookies, performs no visitor tracking, and sends no analytics data.

External Services
This plugin connects to the following external services in order to function:
api.yourseo.app (operated by yourseo, Germany)
- Purpose: search a Google Business (autocomplete), create/delete widgets, fetch the reviews snapshot, trigger refreshes, query Google keyword rankings for the Rank Tracker, run the SEO Audit on your site
- Data sent: the search term, the Place ID of your Google Business, the domain of your WordPress site, the plugin version, the user agent. For the Rank Tracker: keyword strings and the selected country code. For the SEO Audit: the URL of your site (the live page is fetched server-side)
- When: only when you actively trigger an action inside the plugin admin (typing a search, creating a widget, saving keywords, clicking refresh, clicking “Run audit”). The Rank Tracker also auto-refreshes saved keywords once every 30 days
- Terms of service: https://yourseo.app/terms
- Privacy policy: https://yourseo.app/privacy
cdn.yourseo.app (Cloudflare CDN, worldwide)
- Purpose: deliver the widget JavaScript (under 5 KB) to the browsers of your site visitors
- Data sent: the widget ID (UUID) plus standard HTTP request headers (IP address, user agent, referrer) by the visitor’s browser
- When: on every page view where a yourseo widget is embedded
- Privacy policy: https://yourseo.app/privacy
Google PageSpeed Insights & Chrome UX Report (Google LLC)
- Purpose: when you run an SEO Audit, our server queries Google’s PageSpeed Insights and Chrome UX Report APIs for your site’s URL to retrieve Core Web Vitals (LCP, FCP, CLS, TTFB, TBT) for both mobile and desktop
- Data sent: the URL of your WordPress site
- When: only when you click “Run audit” inside the plugin admin (rate-limited to once per 30 days per site on the free plan)
- Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Google Business Profile?
Yes. For the widget to be able to display reviews, a verified Google Business Profile with at least one review must exist.
Are my reviews refreshed automatically?
No. The widget shows a snapshot from the time of creation. You can trigger a manual refresh in the My reviews tab β the api.yourseo.app service rate-limits this to one refresh every 30 days per connected business.
Do I need an account on yourseo.app?
No. The widget wizard works without a separate account.
Will the widget slow my site down?
No. The file is under 5 KB, loads asynchronously over a Cloudflare CDN, and does not block rendering. No measurable impact on Core Web Vitals.
My widget does not display β what should I do?
Some caching plugins strip tags from page content. Workaround: add a caching exception for yourseo widgets, or place the shortcode inside a header/footer hook instead of the page body.
How do I change the size of the widget?
Set the size right in the shortcode, separately per device. Example: [yourseo size-mobile="14px" size-tablet="16px" size-desktop="18px"] Accepted units are px, em and rem. Breakpoints: mobile up to 767px, tablet 768β1023px, desktop from 1024px. Missing values cascade up from mobile β so [yourseo size-mobile="14px"] uses 14px everywhere. Because the widget is em-based, the size attribute scales avatars, stars and padding proportionally, not just the text.
Is any data collected about my site visitors?
No. The plugin sets no cookies and performs no tracking of site visitors. When the widget is displayed, only the widget ID is sent to our Cloudflare CDN so the widget script can be delivered. See the Privacy section below for the full picture.
Changelog
New per-widget checkbox in the wizard to hide the small "Verified by yourseo.app" link. Default is unchanged (link visible), so no surprises for existing widgets.
3.0.1
- New: hide the small “Verified by yourseo.app” link per widget. There is now a checkbox in the widget wizard (“Show the small ‘Verified by yourseo.app’ link in the widget”); leave it on if you want to help others discover the plugin, uncheck it to render a fully unbranded widget.
3.0.0
Major release: yourseo is now an all-in-one SEO suite for WordPress. Review widgets stay the core, now joined by a Rank Tracker, SEO Audit, On-Page Editor, automatic Schema/JSON-LD and a Yoast/RankMath import. Everything runs in the WordPress admin β no separate account, no API keys.
New modules since 2.7.0:
- Rank Tracker β 3 keywords per site, monthly auto-refresh, 30-day position-history chart.
- SEO Audit Lite β score 0-100 with Core Web Vitals from the Google PageSpeed API, once a month per site, no account needed.
- On-Page Editor β Yoast-style live editor for Gutenberg + Classic, with Google preview, focus-keyword analysis and an SEO traffic-light column in the Posts list.
- Schema / JSON-LD β automatic Article, WebSite, Organization, LocalBusiness, BreadcrumbList and AggregateRating, with conflict detection for Yoast / RankMath / AIOSEO / SEOPress.
- Yoast / RankMath import β keeps your existing titles, descriptions, focus keywords and canonicals when you switch.
- Widget gallery β 5 review-widget layouts (Badge, Slider, Grid, List, Sidebar), each with a Light/Dark toggle and per-layout style variants, picked from a single template gallery instead of a multi-step layout picker.
Notable improvements:
- Guided setup wizard plus a dashboard with an SEO-score snapshot.
- Complete German translation across every admin page.
- Disconnect now actually deletes the widgets it created (atomically in one DB query) β embedded shortcodes are empty after disconnect. The Disconnect dialog says so honestly.
- Google preview in the On-Page Editor now visibly distinguishes Mobile (compact card with shadow) from Desktop (wide flat card), even in a narrow sidebar.
Fixed:
- Creating a Sidebar, Badge or Button widget was rejected by WordPress REST with a 400 error (“displayCount is not of type integer”) β null values are no longer sent for layouts that do not use a review count.
- The Create widget button could stay stuck on “…” with no feedback if the server was slow; it now aborts cleanly after 25 seconds and shows an error.
If you only used the review widgets in 2.x: nothing breaks. Existing shortcodes keep working. The new modules stay dormant until you open them.
2.9.10
- Improved: in dark mode the style names now reflect the dark surface (No background / Dark / Dark border / Dark shadow). The separate dark template tiles were removed (use the Light/Dark toggle instead), and the redundant “New widget” menu item is gone β you reach the wizard from the Widgets page.
- Fixed: the selected style/mode button stayed readable on hover (was turning dark text on a dark background).
2.9.9
- New: more Slider and Grid variations. Slider adds a “Summary header” (aggregate rating on top) and a “Spotlight” layout (one large centered review). Grid adds a “With header” variant and a “Masonry” wall. All combine with the Light/Dark mode and the review-count control.
2.9.8
- New: Light / Dark mode for every widget style. The style step now has a Light/Dark toggle, so each variant (white, border, shadow, stacked, excellent, company) is available in both a light and a dark version β instead of “dark” being a single separate style.
2.9.7
- New: choose how many reviews a Slider (1β10), Grid (3β9) or List shows β the count buttons now adapt per layout and the preview updates live.
- Improved: the New widget wizard, My reviews and Help pages now use the same top bar as the rest of the plugin (the old secondary header was removed).
