Seo Ladders

SEO Ladders

SEO Ladders is a full SEO content automation platform accessible via MCP. It runs the same pipeline an SEO team would — audit your site's technical health, check what keywords you rank for on Google, discover your site structure, then auto-select keywords you can realistically win based on your domain rating and competitor gaps. From there, generate full SEO articles (3,000+ words with citations, images, FAQ, and JSON-LD schemas), publish directly to WordPress or any CMS via webhook, or save locally as Markdown + HTML. Track your keyword rankings and monitor competitors over time — all from your terminal or IDE.
