Beriyack SEO Reviews, Downloads & Maintenance

Beriyack SEO is a simple and effective WordPress plugin designed to optimize the essential technical aspects of your search engine optimization (SEO). It focuses on three fundamental pillars without overloading your site:

Meta Tag Management: Automatically adds meta description tags, Open Graph tags (for Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.), and Twitter Cards to improve the appearance of your shares on social media.
Sitemap Integration: Automatically declares the location of your native WordPress sitemap in the virtual robots.txt file, helping search engines discover your content more efficiently.
Indexing Directives: Prevents the indexing of search result pages and 404 pages, which are considered low-quality content by search engines, by adding noindex, nofollow directives.

This plugin is ideal for site owners who want a lightweight solution to cover the basics of technical SEO without needing the complex features of larger SEO suites.

Privacy

Installation

In your WordPress dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New.
Search for “Beriyack SEO”.
Click Install Now and then Activate.
(Optional but recommended) Go to Settings > Beriyack SEO to set a default image.

You can also install the plugin manually by uploading the plugin folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does image management for social media work?

The plugin follows a simple logic: for a post or page, it uses the featured image. If no featured image is set, or for any other page (homepage, archives, etc.), it will use the default image that you can configure in the plugin’s settings page (Settings > Beriyack SEO).

Does this plugin replace Yoast SEO or Rank Math?

No. Beriyack SEO is designed to be a very lightweight solution that handles a few specific technical optimizations. It does not offer content analysis, keyword management, or other advanced features found in comprehensive SEO suites.

How does the plugin handle the author’s name and Twitter handle?

The meta name="author" tag uses the display name of the post’s author. On other pages, it uses the site name. The twitter:site tag uses the handle you can enter in the plugin’s settings page. If the field is left empty, the tag is not added.

Can I customize the default Open Graph image?

Yes. You can upload a default image directly from the WordPress admin, by going to the Settings > Beriyack SEO menu. This approach makes the plugin independent of your theme.
