SEO Bar

See the SEO of any page while you browse your own site.

A small bar on top of every page, shown only to you while you are signed in, with the focus keyword, title, description, H1 and images without alt text for the page you are on. Works with Yoast and Rank Math, or on its own.

WhyI Built It

Checking a page’s SEO normally means leaving the page, opening the editor and scrolling to the SEO panel, for every single page. SEO Bar puts that information on the page itself while you browse your site, so you see a problem the moment you are looking at it.

What ItShows

Keyword, title, description

With length counters, and whether the focus keyword is in the title, H1, description and URL. It handles Arabic.

Headings

The H1 and how many there are, plus the number of H2s.

Content and images

The word count, and images without alt text.

Indexing

Robots and canonical, and whether the page is in your sitemap.

Share image

The image search engines and social networks will use.

Visitors never see it

Only people who can edit the page see the bar; for everyone else the page is unchanged.

Questions

Does it conflict with Yoast or Rank Math?

No. It reads and writes the very same fields they use, so nothing is duplicated and nothing is lost if you remove it.

What if I have no SEO plugin?

SEO Bar stores the values itself and prints the title, description and Open Graph tags.

Does it collect any data?

No. It collects and sends no personal data, and makes no outside requests except reading your own sitemap.

What do I need to run it?

WordPress 6.0 or newer and PHP 7.4 or newer.

When is it available?
