Overview
The plugin helps businesses add local information to their WordPress sites, including business names, addresses, opening hours, and business types. It can add Schema.org markup for these details, giving search engines structured information about the business. This suits local companies that want their site to communicate where they operate and what customers can expect at each location.
For businesses with several locations, the plugin supports adding multiple addresses and provides a store locator for visitors. Google Maps and a route planner can help people find a location and directions from your site. It also generates geo sitemaps and KML files for location-related site data, and includes a Local SEO training course through the Yoast SEO Academy.
