RecipeSEO

With the introduction of Google’s Recipe View, suddenly microformats became incredibly important to food bloggers. If you don’t use microformats for your recipes (or microdata, for those using HTML5), then your blog most likely won’t show up in Recipe View searches.

But most people don’t want to spend the time and effort to hand-code microformats into their recipes every single time they publish a blog post. It’s a lot of work, and quite frankly a pain in the rear, especially if you’re not familiar with HTML.

That’s where this plugin comes in.

The RecipeSEO Plugin gives you the power to take full advantage of the benefits of microformats, without having to deal with HTML and the messy microformat code at all. All you have to do is enter the information about your recipe, and the plugin will automatically add all the necessary code to your recipe.

It’s quick. It’s simple. And best of all, your recipes now have a much better chance of showing up in Google’s Recipe View, with very little additional work from you!

(If you don’t use WordPress.org, or would rather be able to edit the formatted HTML on your own, check out my RecipeSEO App!)
