News schema engine
Clean NewsArticle structured data with publisher, author, section, and dateline, plus conflict detection so it never clashes with Rank Math or Yoast.
Features
Everything Citeroom does to get you cited.
A focused toolkit, not a bloated SEO suite. Each part does one job that helps an AI find, trust, and quote your reporting.
In the free plugin
The foundations, free and on your own server.
No outside calls, no data leaving your site. Install it and these start working on every news post.
Freshness and Google News sitemap
A live Google News sitemap of recent stories, and an honest “updated” date that only appears when a story genuinely changed.
Answer readiness check
A score in the editor for how easily an AI can pull a direct answer from a story, with plain guidance on the lede, headings, and structure.
llms.txt and crawler control
Generate an llms.txt guide that points AI assistants at your best reporting, and welcome or block any AI crawler with one click.
Citeroom Pro
Proof, depth, and an edge.
The paid add-on for newsrooms that want to see results and stay ahead. Requires the free plugin.
Citation tracking
Monitor the questions your readers ask and see whether Perplexity, OpenAI, and Anthropic cite you, charted over time.
AI answer review
A deep review in the editor, using your own AI key, that rewrites your lede and suggests how to make a story more quotable.
Entity grounding
Link your publication and your journalists to their verified identities, so AI knows exactly who reported the story.
Advanced schema
ReportageNewsArticle for original reporting, LiveBlogPosting for breaking events, and ClaimReview for fact checks.
Multi author bylines
Credit every contributor on co-reported stories, each one fully identified in the structured data.
