Without help and support from the WordPress community I was not able to develop this plugin, so thank you!

VS Meta Description

it's really foolish to stick a single meta description in the sitewide header template. that's duplicate content so google knows immediately it's poor quality. it will do more harm than good to your rankings.

1 description duplicated sitewide = bad seo

Simple plugin doing exactly what it is supposed to without bloat. 
Maybe a button could be added to the Default Open Graph Image field, to select the image directly from the library instead of pasting its URL.

Works perfectly

The plugin works perfectly, it is extremely small (8kb zipped), which is a big plus, and the developer is super nice, very responsive and simply awesome.

Thanks a million,
Nick.

A 5 star plugin

Its perfect

With this lightweight plugin you can add a meta description to your website.

WP ADA Compliance Check Basic

Up-to-date standards are offered for checking compliance, and it provides a cost-effective way to scan a site for compliance. There's services out there where it'd cost more than $150 (the current cost of a 1 site 1 year license) for the size of the sites I'm working with. I'm very happy to see this offering in the first place, and it's even nicer to see how thorough it looks to be.

Of course, it's not perfect so I'd love to see more of the WP.org listing fleshed out (the developer author/contributor mention is missing, etc.), I'd love to see the free version on GitHub (or similar for community development assistance [I have a few things I'd help with] which is very nice to see in a WP.org listing to show there's support / ongoing development for the plugin), and of course I'd love to see the server-side checker come to feature-parity with WAVE (currently WAVE is showing a few things the server-side checker doesn't have [color contrast, etc.])

Keep up the great work!

Can check site-wide accessibility very thoroughly
