Approve and publish

Why it matters

From the problem to what SEOmise does

The problem

Letting a tool change your site

You want to know exactly what will change, who said yes, and how to put it back if something looks wrong. Making the same fixes by hand, page by page, is slow and easy to get wrong.

What Approve and publish does

Approve a fix once. SEOmise publishes it, checks it and can undo it

Before and after. Each change shows the old and new value of every field side by side, so you approve exactly what you see.
Approval by role. Owners and admins can approve anything. Approvers approve everyday changes, SEO managers publish, and content editors can propose but not approve.
High-risk changes flagged. Bulk changes, new pages, and changes that hide pages from search or remove links are among those marked high risk. They need an owner or admin.

How it works

Five steps, start to finish

See exactly what changesEvery proposed change lists the pages it touches, with the current value, read from your site through the connector, beside the new one. New pages get a full preview.
A person approves itNothing reaches your site until someone with the right role approves it. Large changes, changes that hide content and new pages need an owner or admin.
It is sent, signedSEOmise sends the change to your site connector as a signed command. The connector checks the signature and the permissions you gave before applying it.
It is checked on the live pageThe connector reads the change back, and SEOmise opens the public page to confirm it is there. If a page cache hides it, SEOmise checks again about 15 minutes later.
Undo whenever you likeRoll back a whole change and your site goes back to how it was. Where your connector supports it, undo single pages or images instead.

Features

What you get with Approve and publish

Before and after

Each change shows the old and new value of every field side by side, so you approve exactly what you see.

Approval by role

Owners and admins can approve anything. Approvers approve everyday changes, SEO managers publish, and content editors can propose but not approve.

High-risk changes flagged

Bulk changes, new pages, and changes that hide pages from search or remove links are among those marked high risk. They need an owner or admin.

Signed and limited

Commands are signed and can only do what the site owner allowed in the connector settings. Each command is applied once, even if it is sent again.

Checks on the live page

SEOmise looks for the new title, description, canonical, robots tag, structured data, links or text on the public page, and about an hour later checks the change is still there.

Automatic rollback

If your site did not keep a change, or the page still does not show it after the second check, SEOmise puts it back and e-mails the person who asked for it and the approver.

A full record

Who proposed, approved and published each change, every command sent and every check result, kept in the change's history and the project timeline.

One queue for every tool

Fixes from the health check, Content SEO, the AI Plan, Speed fixes, Accessibility and the 404 fixer all arrive in the same Changes list.

Before and after

What changes with Approve and publish

Before: fixing by hand. After: with Approve and publish. Drag the handle, or use the arrow keys, to compare.

Fixing by hand

Copy each new title into each page yourself
No record of who changed what, or when
Putting a change back means remembering how it was

With Approve and publish

Approve once and every page in the change is updated
Every step recorded with who did it
Roll back from SEOmise to the version from before

What it needs

No surprises after you sign up

Turn a card over for the detail.

A site connector

The WordPress plugin, the Laravel package or the PHP connector file, paired under Settings, Site connector.

A plan with direct publishing

Without it SEOmise does not send changes: you approve them and make them by hand, and SEOmise checks the live page. Rolling back does not need it.

People with the right roles

Someone who may approve and someone who may publish. An owner or admin can do both.

Every platform

Whatever your site runs on

What Approve and publish does on each kind of website, from SEOmise's site connectors to step-by-step guidance.

WordPress

WordPress and WooCommerce

Fully supported

Every kind of change: titles, structured data, alt text, links, page text, new pages and posts, redirects, speed and accessibility fixes. Single items can be undone. Titles and descriptions go into Yoast SEO, Rank Math or SEOPress when one of them is active.

Laravel

Sites built on Laravel

Fully supported

The same kinds of change through the Laravel package. New pages, posts and media need your app to provide them to the package.

Any PHP site

Custom PHP, CodeIgniter, Symfony, Drupal, Joomla

Partly automatic

Once paired, the PHP connector applies titles, descriptions, structured data, sharing tags, accessibility fixes, speed settings and, where it can, redirects, as pages are sent. No page file is edited.

Every other platform

Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, static sites and the rest

Step by step

On other sites a change cannot be sent. It is approved the same way and comes with steps for your platform, the values to copy and files to download. Press Mark as done and SEOmise checks the live page; anything it does not see yet is checked again 15 minutes later and after the next scan, with one reminder after three days.

Questions

Approve and publish: common questions

Can SEOmise change my site without asking?

No. A change stays proposed until a person with the right role approves it, and it is only sent when someone who may publish sends it. Any change can be dismissed instead.

What happens if a change does not work?

SEOmise checks the live page straight after publishing. If your site did not keep the change, or the page still does not show it about 15 minutes later, SEOmise rolls it back and e-mails the person who asked for it and the approver.

What is the connector allowed to change?

Only what the site owner allows. The connector settings on your site list permissions such as titles and descriptions, page text, internal links, creating pages, publishing pages, undo and speed settings. SEOmise refuses to publish a change whose permission is not allowed.

Will undo overwrite edits someone made later?

Undo restores the version saved before SEOmise's change. On WordPress and Laravel, if someone edited the page text after SEOmise changed it, the undo stops rather than overwrite their work.

My site has no connector. What then?

Changes are still prepared and approved the same way, then made by hand: each one shows the steps for your platform, the values to copy and files to download (such as redirects in your host's format). Press Mark as done and SEOmise opens the page to check the change is there. Anything it does not see yet is checked again 15 minutes later and after the next scan, and you get one reminder if something is still waiting after three days. SEOmise cannot undo a change made by hand, so the old values stay in the change for you to copy back.

How do I connect my site?

On WordPress, approve SEOmise on your site and it installs and pairs the plugin, or upload your personal plugin. On Laravel, install the package and pair it with a one-time code. On other PHP sites, download the connector file with its pairing code inside and upload it.
