FAQ
Do I need to install a plugin?
No. WordPress, Webflow, and Shopify connect through their standard APIs. Other sites use a webhook — a small endpoint on your server.
My site isn’t WordPress, Webflow, or Shopify. Can I still use SEObox?
Yes. Use the Custom Site (Webhook) connection. It works with any stack that can receive an HTTPS POST: Next.js, Astro, Nuxt, Laravel, Django, Rails, a headless CMS, or a static site that rebuilds from a database or a Git commit. You can also pull published articles yourself with the API.
Does SEObox publish without my approval?
No. Articles wait in Review until you approve and publish them. The only exception is posts on your own backlink sites, which publish automatically.
I clicked Publish but nothing appeared on my site.
Open the article in Content. If publishing failed, the article is back in Approved with the error shown. The most common causes:
- WordPress: the username or Application Password is wrong, or a security plugin blocks
/wp-json/. - Webhook: your endpoint returned a non-2xx status, took longer than 30 seconds, or rejected the signature because it re-serialized the JSON instead of hashing the raw body.
- The site’s URL points to a private or internal address.
Fix the connection on the site’s page, then click Publish again.
If I edit an article in SEObox after publishing, does my site update?
No. SEObox creates posts but doesn’t update or delete them. Make changes in your CMS.
Does WordPress get the featured image and Yoast / Rank Math fields?
Not yet. SEObox sends the title, content (with FAQs), excerpt, and slug. Set SEO-plugin fields in
WordPress. If you use the webhook, meta_title and meta_description are included in the
payload.
Can I use my own AI provider key?
Yes. Go to Settings → AI key and add an Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, or DeepSeek key. SEObox checks the key when you save it.
How do I get my workspace ID for the API?
Contact SEObox support.
Where does SEObox send requests from?
Publishing and webhook requests come from SEObox’s servers. If your firewall allow-lists IPs, contact support for the current addresses.
