Do I need a plugin to handle Googles Algorithm Amazingly Smart and Incredibly Dumb?
Not strictly, but auditing and rollback are what make the difference at scale. That's what WBP Omni SEO Pro handles.
Will this hurt existing rankings?
Not if the change is small and reversible. Every step above ships behind an Approve gate.
How does NAP interact with multi-location sites?
Each location gets its own LocalBusiness node, is scoped to its landing page, and inherits shared Organization data — no duplicate NAP on unrelated pages.
Do presets fight my per-post overrides?
Per-post fields always win; presets only fill fields you left blank, and the UI shows exactly which field came from where.
