Your site is invisible where search is heading

Cited everywhere except your site

AI tools are answering the exact questions your content covers. They're just not pulling from you.

No way to tell AI what to read

Google has robots.txt. AI search engines need llms.txt. Most WordPress sites don't have one, so AI crawlers guess what matters and often get it wrong.

Optimized for Google, invisible to AI

Your site ranks in Google but doesn't appear in ChatGPT, Perplexity, or AI Overviews. These systems use different signals than traditional search, and most SEO tools haven't caught up.

The Solution

AIOSEO gets your site into the AI conversation

AI search engines work differently from Google. AIOSEO gives you control over what AI systems index, how they understand your content, and whether you come across as a credible source worth citing. From llms.txt generation to schema markup to E-E-A-T signals, everything works together from inside WordPress.

Get your site into AI search in 3 steps

1

Generate your llms.txt file

Go to AIOSEO Settings and open the llms.txt tab. Choose which post types and categories to include, and AIOSEO generates and maintains your files automatically.

2

Add schema markup

AIOSEO applies schema markup based on your post type settings in Search Appearance. Open the Schema tab on any individual post to customize or add markup for that specific page.

3

Create author profiles

Go to the Author SEO settings and add expertise fields, credentials, and social links for each author. These are the signals AI systems check when deciding whose content is worth citing.

AI Crawl Control

Tell AI exactly what to read

AIOSEO automatically generates llms.txt and llms-full.txt files that tell AI search engines which content on your site matters most. Choose which post types, categories, and pages to include, and manage everything from your WordPress dashboard without touching a line of code.

  • Automatic generation of llms.txt and llms-full.txt files
  • Choose which post types, categories, and taxonomies are included
  • Markdown formatting for faster AI crawling and indexing

Structured Data

Help AI understand what your content actually means

Schema markup tells AI systems exactly what your content is and what it means, making it far easier for ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overview to pull accurate information from your site. AIOSEO can add structured data automatically based on your content type.

  • Schema for articles, FAQs, how-tos, products, events, and more
  • Applied automatically based on post type, no manual setup needed
  • No coding required

E-E-A-T Signals

Build the trust signals AI uses to pick its sources

AI systems prioritize content from credible, expert sources. AIOSEO's Author SEO helps you optimize author profiles with the expertise signals, credentials, and social links that reinforce E-E-A-T, the framework both Google and AI systems use to decide whose content is worth citing.

  • Author profile optimization with credentials, expertise fields, and bio
  • Social profile links that reinforce authority across the web
  • E-E-A-T signals built directly into your author pages

Frequently asked questions

Will AIOSEO help my site show up in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews?

Yes. AIOSEO addresses the main factors that determine AI visibility: what content AI crawlers can access (llms.txt), how they interpret it (schema markup), and whether your site is seen as a credible source (E-E-A-T signals). No tool can guarantee placement in AI answers, but these are the right foundations.

What is llms.txt and why do I need it?

llms.txt is a file that tells AI search engines which pages on your site are most important and how your content is structured. It's the AI equivalent of a sitemap. Without one, AI crawlers have to guess what matters on your site, and they often get it wrong. AIOSEO generates it automatically.

Is llms.txt the same as robots.txt?

No. Robots.txt tells web crawlers where not to go; llms.txt tells AI systems which content is most relevant and worth including in their knowledge base. They serve different purposes and you need both.

Do I need to know how to code to use these features?

No. AIOSEO generates your llms.txt file, adds schema markup, and optimizes author profiles entirely from the WordPress dashboard. No file editing, no coding, no FTP.

What plan do I need for AIOSEO's AI search features?

The LLMs.txt Generator and Schema Markup are available to all AIOSEO users, but to unlock llms-full.txt files and Smart Schema (structured data generated by AI), you'll need a paid plan. To learn more, visit the AIOSEO pricing page.
