AI for SEO metadata

Choose your SEO workflow

  • Movie AI Help: open a movie on the site as an authorized administrator, choose Movie SEO, select the field, write your instruction, generate and review it, then save. See the Movie SEO workflow.
  • Ordinary WordPress Posts: use Article AI → SEO inside the Post editor, choose one field, describe the desired wording, generate a preview and save the accepted value. It uses Article SEO rules and the saved article. Reload the editor after Save or Undo. See the Article SEO workflow.
  • MK SEO AI Preview: the separate editor tool below offers a combined preview and selected-field application. Its controls differ from the two focused workflows above.

All workflows require a compatible active Yoast SEO or Rank Math environment. Preview does not save metadata. SEO metadata is saved separately from article/review text.

MK SEO AI Preview in the editor

MK Studio AI SEO proposes titles, meta descriptions and focus keyphrases from saved content for review before applying them.

Location: edit a supported movie, post or page → MK SEO AI Preview. The tool proposes SEO title, meta description and primary focus keyphrase. Configure a provider and use one supported SEO plugin: Yoast SEO or Rank Math. A missing, unsupported or conflicting SEO environment blocks the workflow; installing MK Studio alone does not create an SEO plugin.

1. Prepare and save the content

  1. Check the active SEO plugin and review current per-post SEO values.
  2. Save the movie facts and finished review, or the post/page content. SEO generation uses saved context; unsaved editor text is excluded.
  3. Optionally set SEO strict instructions in MK Studio → AI Tools → Fine Tuning and select Save Fine Tuning. These rules take precedence over conflicting per-item prompts and presets.

2. Generate a preview

  1. Open MK SEO AI Preview and inspect its environment/readiness message and current values.
  2. Choose the provider/model offered by the tool. Choose a preset such as Fill SEO fields or Improve existing SEO, or write instructions describing the intended search focus.
  3. Select Generate SEO Preview. Review the proposed SEO title, meta description and primary focus keyphrase. A preview makes no SEO writes.

Example: “Describe this saved review of The Wire for readers interested in its crime drama themes. Use the show’s title naturally, avoid major spoilers and do not claim that this page streams episodes.” Verify that the result describes what visitors actually find on the page.

3. Apply only the fields you accept

  1. Select the proposed fields to apply. Compare each with its current per-post value.
  2. If a selected field already contains a value, explicitly confirm Overwrite current per-post value for that field.
  3. Select Apply selected fields or Apply this field. This action writes the selected metadata to the active supported SEO plugin and creates a revert snapshot. It does not publish the post or replace the review.
  4. Verify the SEO plugin’s values and the public page. Avoid treating a generated keyphrase as a promise of search ranking.

Revert last apply can restore the latest available snapshot. Revert may be blocked if the active SEO plugin changed or someone edited those SEO values after Apply, to protect newer work. It is not a permanent history of every SEO edit.

Good SEO instructions

Use the SEO Fine Tuning screenshot and copyable example to set consistent site preferences for titles, descriptions and keyphrases.

Request accurate wording, natural keyphrase use, the correct title/year and a description of the saved content. Avoid invented awards, inflated ratings, repeated keywords and unsupported “watch free” claims. Review the preview’s validation messages instead of assuming that every provider response is usable. The primary focus keyphrase is an editorial/plugin aid, not a ranking guarantee.

AI helps. You decide. Generation proposes; Apply writes selected SEO values. The separate Review tool fills editor text and requires your normal WordPress save. See Write a movie review with AI.
