Everything AEO Ultimate does

A structured-data and AI-visibility layer for WordPress. It reads each page, works out what it is, and adds only the signals that are missing — never duplicating what your SEO suite already outputs.

  • Schema Engine — structured data & Knowledge Graph. Detects page intent and outputs clean JSON-LD only where it’s missing — Organization, Article, Person, FAQ, Service, Product, LocalBusiness, Event, Review, Breadcrumb — woven into a single connected @graph cross-referenced by @id.
  • AI Ready — llms.txt & crawler control. /llms.txt, /llms-full.txt, Markdown content negotiation, Content-Signal headers, agent-discovery endpoints — plus per-bot rate limiting and blocking for 20+ AI crawlers.
  • Authority — author & publisher E-E-A-T. Person schema with credentials, expertise and sameAs, an explicit article:publisher / article:author split, Organization identity, and a completeness scorecard.
  • Merchant — WooCommerce & shopping. Automatic Product schema (Brand, Offer, price, availability, GTIN/MPN/SKU), optional AI enrichment, and live Google & Bing Merchant Center sync with an integrity score.
  • Local & Indexing. LocalBusiness schema with hours and geo, NAP consistency auditing, cached /aeo-sitemap.xml, Google News sitemap, IndexNow pings, and a Not Indexed report driven by the Search Console URL Inspection API.
  • Command Center — analytics & performance. Search Console, GA4 and Bing Webmaster in one view, PageSpeed / Core Web Vitals audits, a real-time AI-crawler watch, a traffic-leak scan, and duplicate-schema conflict alerts.

Installation

  1. Automatic install (recommended): in your dashboard go to Plugins → Add New Plugin, search for TWT AEO Ultimate, click Install Now, then Activate.
  2. Upload a ZIP: on Plugins → Add New Plugin choose Upload Plugin, select twt-aeo-ultimate.zip, then Install Now → Activate.
  3. Manual install over FTP: upload the twt-aeo-ultimate folder to /wp-content/plugins/ and activate it from the Plugins screen.

Don’t skip this — the permalink flush is required. Until you re-save Settings → Permalinks once, the /llms.txt and sitemap endpoints return 404.

First-run setup

  1. Open TWT AEO → Modules and enable the features you want — every one toggles independently.
  2. Set your publisher identity under TWT AEO → E-E-A-T (the Company tab).
  3. Complete each writer’s E-E-A-T data under Users → All Users.
  4. Tune bot visibility and access at TWT AEO → AI Ready.

Optional — bring your own keys: AI features use your own Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini or Perplexity keys. Nothing is sent anywhere until you configure a feature and trigger it. The plugin is fully functional standalone; TWT Agency connectivity is optional.

One strategy, every platform

Each edition is built native to its platform — not a WordPress plugin reskinned. Same answer-engine strategy, expressed through each platform’s own APIs, data model and publishing pipeline.
