What you need
- WordPress 6.0 or newer and PHP 7.4 or newer
- A WordPress administrator login
OnlyAI SEO is a normal WordPress plugin. You upload it, switch it on, and it starts scoring your posts by itself. This guide takes you from nothing to a working setup.
Step 1: install the plugin
- Download the zip from the home page (the file is called
onlyai-seo.zip). - In WordPress open Plugins, Add New, Upload Plugin.
- Choose the zip and press Install Now, then Activate Plugin.
Prefer the old way? Unzip it into wp-content/plugins/ yourself and activate it in Plugins.
Step 2: follow the setup guide
Right after you activate the plugin, a short setup guide opens. Every step can be skipped, and nothing on your site changes until you say so. You can open it again any time from Plugins, Setup guide or from the banner on the Overview.
- Connect OnlyAI Cloud. This switches on the AI buttons (titles, descriptions, ideas, 1-click wording). It needs a free key; the next guide shows how to get one. You can skip it: scoring and the agents work without it.
- Connect Google. One sign-in links Search Console and Google Analytics, read-only. How it works.
- Choose your agents. Pick Ready to go, All or None. Four agents read Google data and are marked. More.
- Import from another SEO plugin. This step only appears if Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO or SEOPress data is found. It shows a preview first.
- Score your posts. The plugin grades every post for the first time. This takes a moment, longer on a big site.
Step 3: look at the Overview
Open OnlyAI SEO in the WordPress menu. You will see a score for your whole site, a list called Next best actions (ranked by impact, with the time each takes) and a Fix these first list of posts. Start at the top and work down. How to read it.
Good to know
- Another SEO plugin is active? OnlyAI SEO prints no title or description tags until you switch the other one off, so you never get two of anything. Switching over.
- The checklist stays. Settings, Getting set up lists the same steps and ticks them off as you go. Press Hide this checklist when you are done.
- Updates arrive on the normal Plugins screen. How to update.
- Writing new articles needs the separate AutoArticle AI plugin. How to set it up.
