Audit a WordPress site for AI answer engines
A WordPress SEO audit for AI answer engines looks at three layers: on-page structure, structured data (Article, FAQ, Breadcrumb), and answer-first content. Get them right so ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews can extract and cite your posts.

On-page
Comprobaciones on-page
- Exactly one H1 per page. WordPress themes sometimes render the site title as an H1 alongside the post title. Keep one H1 that names the topic and demote the rest to H2/H3.
- Under-60-character title tag. Set the SEO title via Yoast, Rank Math, or the block editor so it reads as an answer, not a slug. Include the primary keyword near the start.
- Under-155-character meta description. Write the meta description as the answer to the search intent. This is what AI Overviews and Perplexity extract when the page is cited.
- Descriptive image alt text. Every non-decorative image needs alt text that explains what it shows. Empty alts hide meaning from AI crawlers and screen readers alike.
Datos estructurados
Comprobaciones de datos estructurados
- Article schema on every post. WordPress can emit Article JSON-LD via Yoast, Rank Math, or SEOPress. Confirm headline, datePublished, dateModified, author, and image are populated.
- FAQ schema on posts with Q&A blocks. Where a post answers repeated questions, add FAQPage JSON-LD. Google surfaces the answers directly in AI Overviews.
- Breadcrumb schema on category pages. A BreadcrumbList tells crawlers your site hierarchy and can appear as the URL trail in AI answers.

Preparación para motores de respuesta con IA
- Answer-first opening paragraph. AI answer engines pull the paragraph closest to the H1. Put the direct answer in the first 40–60 words, then expand — never bury the lede.
- Cite claims with named sources. AI models trust content that names its sources. Link to primary references (papers, docs, official announcements) so the model can verify.
- Author bio with credentials. A real author bio with E-E-A-T signals (experience, credentials, other work) helps AI answer engines rank you as an authoritative source.
A tener en cuenta
Detalles a los que prestar atención
- Theme-injected duplicate H1s (site title + post title) — pick one and demote the other in the theme header.
- Yoast auto-generated meta descriptions read like word salad — write them by hand for the top 20 pages.
- Emoji picker plugins output raw emoji in the head; strip them from meta or AI Overviews truncate the extract.
