Who it’s for
- Publishers and newsrooms: Share to Facebook groups/pages and want previews to refresh reliably.
- Site owners and marketers: Want SEO foundations done for them with smart defaults.
- Agencies and freelancers: Need a lightweight, no‑bloat baseline across many sites.
- Editors: Prefer simple workflows (Featured Image → correct OG/Twitter image; copy share links with UTMs).
Why this plugin
- Lightweight, sensible defaults: Uses WordPress data you already have—no content re‑entry, no vendor lock‑in.
- Share previews that “just work”: Optional Facebook rescrape on publish/update/featured‑image changes.
- Clean markup: Outputs only what matters—no duplicate/conflicting tags.
- Editor‑friendly: Built‑in UTM Link Builder with presets for consistent campaign tagging.
- Developer‑friendly: Hooks/filters, JSON‑LD schema, and GA admin‑disable baked in.
