The only **French-built WordPress SEO plugin** that combines AI semantic cocoons, audit + 1-click fixes, automated internal linking and a 2026 GEO Score. **30 active plugin clients, 1,200+ historical users** on the SaaS. [Install the free version](/download) 30 plugin clients · 1,200+ SaaS users · Dunod-published book my-site.com/wp-admin/ _· Hack The SEO_ OVERVIEW Site SEO score Live Cocoon 4 active Linking 128 links Audit 47 to fix Indexed 312 / 312 AI Coach · suggestions 2 min ago 3 metas too short on /services/ Rewrite Cocoon "SEO plugin" ready to publish Push WP Linking: 12 links missing toward pillar Apply Cocoon published Audit pushed · 47 fixes THE REAL PROBLEM ## You already have a WordPress SEO plugin. Yet your SEO is not moving. Most WordPress SEO plugins give you **alerts**. 47 tags to fix. 12 pieces of content too short. 8 orphan pages. You look at the list, then push it to tomorrow. Tomorrow becomes a month. Traffic stays flat. The problem is not a lack of information. **The problem is a lack of execution.** What you already pay for An audit that points at problems - A keyword list to integrate someday - A linking analysis to do by hand - Recommendation PDFs that end up in a folder What you actually need - An audit that fixes in 1 click - A semantic cocoon generated + linked automatically - Long-form content ready to publish (Ultra: 30 articles/mo) - An AI Coach analyzing your site in real time Founded by the authors of the Dunod SEO book "Le SEO pour booster sa croissance", Hack The SEO was built for this shift. Not as an add-on. As **the plugin that does, not the one that reports**. THE 3 PILLARS ## Three things other WordPress SEO plugins do not really do. Validated on 30 WordPress sites in production. 01 Pillar 1 ### A living AI semantic cocoon, not a frozen one You give it a topic. Hack The SEO builds the full semantic tree, identifies the pages you are missing, generates the topical map in under a minute, and weaves the internal linking automatically toward your pillar page. When a piece of content changes, the cocoon updates itself. Topical map generated in < 60 sec [See Semantic Cocoon for WordPress →](https://hacktheseo.com/semantic-cocoon-wordpress/) 02 Pillar 2 ### An audit that fixes, in 1 click Yoast tells you your meta description is too short. Hack The SEO rewrites it in your brand voice, validates it, and applies it across 100 pages in a single click. On-page audit + technical audit + AI fixes. Native WordPress push, without leaving your admin. 100 fixes applied in < 3 min [See SEO Audit for WordPress →](https://hacktheseo.com/seo-audit-wordpress/) 03 Pillar 3 ### An AI Coach analyzing your site in real time Not a monthly report. Not a one-off audit. The AI Coach runs continuously on your WordPress site, detects cannibalization, missing tags, orphan content, and proposes fixes as it goes. Google Search Console integrated. 91 checks · 14 active modules [See the AI Coach in a demo →](https://calendly.com/eric-ibanez-hts/20min) THE SEMANTIC COCOON ## Three levels, one goal: building authority. A cocoon is an architecture where pillar, children and satellites reinforce each other. It is what turns a WordPress site into a topical reference in Google's eyes. **Pillar** **Children** **Satellites** **Orphans** (to reconnect) **World first · 2026** Hack The SEO is the only WordPress plugin in the world that **generates the cocoon**, **writes the articles** and **weaves the internal linking** automatically, in one click. 12 MODULES · 1 SUBSCRIPTION ## Everything your WordPress SEO plugin should already do. 12 modules live in production on 30 WordPress sites.

Does Hack The SEO replace Yoast / RankMath / SEOPress / AIOSEO / SEOKEY? Yes. Hack The SEO includes everything classic SEO plugins do (title, meta, sitemap, schema, redirects, breadcrumbs), and adds the AI cocoon, the audit + fixes, the real-time AI Coach and long-form article writing. You deactivate the old plugin, install Hack The SEO, and your settings carry over automatically. For the face-to-face detail: [vs Yoast SEO](https://hacktheseo.com/yoast-alternative/), [vs Rank Math](https://hacktheseo.com/rankmath-alternative/), [vs SEOPress](https://hacktheseo.com/seopress-alternative/), [vs AIOSEO](https://hacktheseo.com/aioseo-alternative/), [vs OGEEAT](https://hacktheseo.com/ogeeat-alternative/) or [vs SEOKEY](https://hacktheseo.com/seokey-alternative/). Does it slow my site down? No. All AI operations run on our servers (Europe), not inside WordPress. The plugin footprint is light, comparable to Yoast. Identical Lighthouse score before/after activation. Do I need an OpenAI / Claude API key? No. All the AIs (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude) are included in your Pro or Ultra subscription. No key to manage, no cloud bill to receive. GDPR? Plugin and SaaS are GDPR compliant. Hosted in Europe (France for user data). No third-party cookie fired. Details on the security page. Does it work with Elementor / Divi / Bricks / WooCommerce? Yes. Hack The SEO integrates natively with Gutenberg, Elementor (dedicated modules), Divi (dedicated modules), Bricks, Avada, and WooCommerce. The AI linking works whatever the builder. How long before I see results? First GSC signals at D+15 (impressions + CTR). First top 10 positions on niche queries at D+30. For competitive keywords (volume > 500), count 60 to 90 days. Documented e-commerce case: ×3.3 traffic in 90 days. Honest, not magic. What if I do not like it? Monthly commitment, no aggressive auto-renewal. You stop whenever you want from your account. Why you, and not SEOPress (French too)? SEOPress is excellent at classic SEO (tags, sitemap, redirects). Hack The SEO adds the 2026 AI layer SEOPress does not have: a living semantic cocoon, audit + fixes in 1 click, a real-time AI Coach, long article generation (30 articles/month on Ultra). Many of our clients used SEOPress before: the transition is immediate, we import your settings. WHO IT IS FOR ## Built for your type of WordPress site. ### SMBs & freelancers You want your SEO to move forward without hiring a 1,500 €/month agency. Automatic audit + fixes, semantic cocoon in 1 click. ### WooCommerce e-commerce 200 product pages that do not rank, empty categories, missing price snippets. Hack The SEO optimizes them in batch: product pages, categories, Product schemas. ### WordPress agencies Multi-site clients, regular deliverables, reports to present. One subscription per client site, centralized dashboards, optional white label. ### Bloggers & publishers You publish a lot. Automated semantic cocoons, up to 30 long-form articles per month (Ultra), AI internal linking, no freelance writer.
