Know when WordPress breaks your SEO - before Google tells you.
Back up your SEO, not just your database. IndexPlane keeps a known-good restore point, checks what your site actually serves after every update and deploy, and shows what changed, why, and how to put it back.

WORKS ALONGSIDE
Keep the SEO plugin you trust. IndexPlane installs alongside it. It starts in Observer mode, reads what your plugin outputs and guards it after every update. Nothing on your site changes until you say so.

Redirection
THE PROBLEM
Your SEO plugin configures it. Your crawler inspects it. IndexPlane operates it, and notices the moment what you configured stops being what you serve.
- plugin updateA plugin update adds noindex to 800 product pages.
- redirectA redirect drops your gclid, and paid traffic stops being attributed.
- migrationThe migration looked fine. Google got something else.
INSIDE, NOT OUTSIDE
A crawler visits from outside, on its own schedule. IndexPlane lives inside WordPress and checks the moment something changes, so you hear first, before any crawler arrives.

HOW IT WORKS
- 01BaselineTake a known-good SEO restore point of what every template serves.
- 02MonitorWeekly checks, plus a check after every plugin, theme or core update.
- 03DetectRules flag regressions with the served HTML as evidence.
- 04DiffSee exactly what changed against the restore point, by template.
- 05AttributeLine it up with the WordPress events that happened around then.
- 06Restore / FixPut it back as a reversible change. Undo is Pro.
- 07VerifyRe-check what the site serves until the incident closes.
