About this plugin
AI Semantic Handshake is a next-generation SEO tool designed to help website owners establish verifiable, bidirectional trust relationships with partner websites.
In the era of AI Search (like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google SGE), search engines increasingly rely on E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness). This plugin allows you to mathematically prove your site’s professional network by generating standardized JSON-LD schema signals that AI engines can easily read and verify.
Instead of relying on unverified “link exchanges,” this plugin uses a secure, peer-to-peer cryptographic handshake over the WordPress REST API to ensure both sites mutually confirm the relationship.
