About this plugin
SEO Lands Smart Chat reads your website (pages, posts, products, courses, any custom post type) and answers visitor questions in English, Hindi or Hinglish.
- Works on any website type – Online store (product cards with price, rating and Add to cart), Services / courses / business (advisor style, no product cards) or Both. Auto-detected, or choose it yourself. Replies talk about products, courses or services to match your content.
- AI engines – Google Gemini or Grok (xAI; Groq keys also work), with automatic backup and automatic model choice. Without a key it still answers from your pages with a built-in search engine.
- Answer rules – your own instructions for the AI, topics it must not answer, and a fees & prices policy: show prices from your website, or never quote prices and share your contact details instead.
- Live chat inbox – take over any conversation, reply as your team, see who is online.
- Email alerts – optional emails to the admin when visitors write while you are offline, and to visitors when you reply.
- Lead capture into your own form – Elementor Pro, Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms or any other form plugin with a shortcode (WPForms, Fluent Forms, Ninja Forms, Formidable, Forminator). Optional webhook for any CRM.
- SEO aware – noindex / nofollow pages (Yoast, Rank Math, AIOSEO, SEOPress, SEO Framework), landing and thank-you pages are never read or linked.
- Cache friendly (LiteSpeed, WP Rocket, etc.), mobile friendly, no cookies.
