News publishers first
We design around reporting, authorship, fast-moving stories, and deep archives—not a generic checklist for every kind of website.
PublishRank is a fully nonprofit project, dedicated and developed for news publishers. Small local teams and large publishing organizations deserve the same care, clarity, and useful foundations.
Our purpose is to make publisher-focused SEO knowledge and tooling more accessible. We put newsroom needs ahead of a profit motive and keep the free core at the center of the project.
We design around reporting, authorship, fast-moving stories, and deep archives—not a generic checklist for every kind of website.
Independent outlets, community publishers, magazines, and established newsrooms are all part of the same mission.
We distinguish current capabilities from planned work and explain where human review and real-world validation are necessary.
PublishRank is operated as a mission-led, independent project rather than a profit-driven business. Its stated purpose is to support news publishers through a free core, public documentation, and publisher-first development.
This describes the project's purpose and operating commitment. It is not a claim of registered charity status, tax-exempt recognition, or eligibility for tax-deductible donations. No such legal designation is represented on this website.
Clear bug reports, documentation corrections, accessibility feedback, and specific newsroom use cases help improve the project. Share the problem you are trying to solve, not private content or credentials.
