<p>The purpose of this SEO plugin is to purge attachment URLs out of Google’s index as fast as possible. This helps sites<br />
that might have suffered from having too many thin content pages in the search index by removing them in the fastest<br />
way possible.</p>
<h3>What does this plugin do?</h3>
<p>This plugin makes all your attachment URLs return an HTTP 410 status. It then creates an XML sitemap with a recent last<br />
modified date, containing all those URLs. The XML sitemap with recent post modified date makes Google spider <em>all</em> those<br />
URLs again. The 410 status code makes sure Google takes them out of its search results in the fastest way possible.</p>
<p>With a nice trick, we also show end users the actual attachment image, so the user experience is not as poor as when<br />
they see an error page.</p>
<h3>Yoast SEO required</h3>
<p>This plugin is an extension to <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/" rel="ugc">Yoast SEO</a>. It requires it to work.</p>
<h3>How long should you run this plugin?</h3>
<p>After 6 months the attachment URLs should be gone from the search results. If you then remove the plugin, and keep<br />
Yoast SEO’s redirect setting on “Yes”, you have the best long term behavior for attachment URLs: to redirect to the<br />
actual attachment.</p>
<h3>Does Google condone this?</h3>
<p>This method has been discussed with and OK’d by Google.</p>
<h3>From within WordPress</h3>

<p>AISee gives you the data that you can use to optimize your post content. Yep, some smart human-intervention can give you a cutting edge over your competitors who use the best SEO plugins but set ’em up and forget it… yep that doesn’t last long.</p>

<p><strong>Get Performance Data from Google Search Console:</strong> This feature requires a one click free registration with <a href="https://aiseeseo.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">AISee Service</a> so that it can serve you your data from Google Search Console.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Visualize your entire post as a tag cloud:</strong> We built this feature because we know other plugins didn’t cut it for us. They just analyze the post-content. But AISee fetches your entire URL as it appears to the search bots and visitors. Really! And that’s how you can see an accurate keyword-landscape of your post content.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Do you ever wonder how your keyword landscape looks like? Clusters of jibberish crawled by search spiders, churned through so many algorithms… What are the prominent keywords in your content <strong>mind you not just the post content</strong>. Your theme, plugins, scripts, post title… there’s a lot that comes into play while rendering the markup for search bots.</p>
<p>The key is to get the search densitiy right so that the post content stays on topic rather than getting lost around tons and tons of meaning less words.</p>
<p>NOTICE: The Google Search Console feature requires a connection to <a href="https://aiseeseo.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">AISee</a>. This requires setting up a free account with a single click and authorizing AISee with Google Search Console.</p>
<h4>Google Search Console Performance-Data:</h4>
