How SAM Optirank works
Show full descriptionShow less
SAM Optirank is a WordPress plugin that improves your natural and local search engine optimization using artificial intelligence (Claude Haiku by Anthropic).
Description en français
SAM Optirank est un plugin WordPress qui améliore votre référencement naturel et local grâce à l’intelligence artificielle (Claude Haiku d’Anthropic).
IA incluse dans l’abonnement — avec une licence active, l’IA fonctionne immédiatement, sans clé API à configurer. Chaque licence inclut un quota mensuel (≈ 140 pages satellite générées). Une jauge dans les réglages affiche votre usage restant sous la forme « ≈ N pages restantes ». Aucune clé Anthropic à fournir : tout passe par l’IA incluse dans votre abonnement.
Gratuit — score SEO local de 0 à 100, champs titre/méta-description avec compteur dans l’éditeur, aperçu SERP en direct, zone géographique pour le SEO local, compatible Gutenberg, Oxygen, Elementor, Beaver Builder.
Premium (licence) — analyse SEO complète par IA, assistant « Analyser → Valider → Optimiser », génération de contenu HTML, recherche de mots-clés (longue traîne, local, questions PAA, LSI), suivi des positions Google (Serper.dev / Search Console), corrections en un clic, rapports, et cocon sémantique (pages satellites optimisées et maillées, créées en brouillon puis publiées manuellement).
Compatible avec tous les page builders : les balises SEO sont injectées via les hooks natifs de WordPress, sans modifier le builder.
Free features
Local SEO score from 0 to 100 (title, meta description, H1, word count, links, images)
SEO title and meta description fields with character counter in the editor
Live SERP preview
Geographic zone for local SEO
Compatible with classic WordPress, Gutenberg, Oxygen Builder, Elementor, Beaver Builder
Premium features (license required)
AI included in your subscription. With an active license, AI features work out of the box — no API key to configure. Each license includes a monthly allowance (about 140 satellite pages worth of generation). A simple gauge in the settings shows your remaining usage as “≈ N pages left”. No Anthropic key is required: all AI requests go through the AI included in your subscription.
Full AI analysis — score, strengths, detected issues and prioritized suggestions via Claude Haiku (Anthropic)
“Analyze → Validate → Optimize” Wizard — Claude analyzes your page semantics, generates ~20 keywords to validate in one click, then automatically optimizes SEO title, meta description, Schema.org, Open Graph and canonical URL
AI-generated HTML content — H1, H2s, paragraphs and conclusion ready to paste into the editor
AI keyword research — primary, long-tail, local, PAA questions, LSI semantic clusters, CSV export
Google position tracking — via Serper.dev (Google Search API)
One-click auto-fix recommendations — apply all SEO fixes instantly
Semantic Cluster (Cocon Sémantique) — automatically generate SEO-optimized satellite pages, interlinked and ready to index
Royalty-free images — optionally illustrate each satellite page with a relevant Unsplash photo (imported into your media library)
Manual publishing — generated satellite pages are always created as drafts; you review and publish each one yourself, so nothing goes live without your action
Compatibility
Fully compatible with Oxygen Builder, Elementor, Beaver Builder, WPBakery and the classic WordPress/Gutenberg editor. All meta tags and SEO data are injected via native WordPress hooks — the builder is never modified.
