Frequently asked questions
What store owners ask before they start. If your question is not here, write to us and we reply within one business day.
Getting started
Do I need SEO or coding experience?+
No. Rutbot reviews your store, writes the improvement and explains why in one plain sentence; you read it and approve. No code, no plugins to install, no jargon to learn. If you do know SEO, you can edit any suggestion before it goes live.
What do I get for free?+
A full scan of up to 25 pages, a score for every product showing what it's missing, and 3 pages improved and published to your store after you approve. No card needed, and the free plan never expires.
How do I start?+
Create an account, pick your store's platform and approve Rutbot's access. Within minutes your products are listed from weakest to strongest, each with an Improve button. Want a quick look first? Paste your store link on the free scan page.
How long does connecting take?+
A minute or two. On Salla and Zid you approve access in your account there and come straight back. On WordPress and EasyOrders you enter your store link first, then approve. We then pull and score your products in the background.
Platforms and connecting
Which platforms are supported?+
Salla, Zid, WordPress (WooCommerce) and EasyOrders, on every plan. Shopify is coming soon, and Pro and Business subscribers get it the day it launches.
What exactly does Rutbot change in my store?+
Only the text Google and AI read: product name and description, Google title and description, image alt text, and the product URL if you ask for it. We never touch prices, stock, orders or your store design.
Does it work with Yoast on WordPress?+
Yes. If Yoast is installed, Rutbot writes the Google title and description into its fields, so they show in search exactly as you approved them.
Can I connect more than one store?+
Yes. Pro covers up to 3 stores and Business up to 10, and they can be on different platforms. Each store's data is kept completely separate.
Do you work with stores outside the Gulf?+
Yes, with any store whose customers search in Arabic, and Egypt is one of our core markets. Rutbot writes in your market's dialect - Gulf, Egyptian, Levantine or Modern Standard Arabic - using the words your customers actually type.
Approval and control
Does Rutbot publish anything without my approval?+
No. Every change is shown to you first: the current text next to the suggestion, with the reason. You edit, reject or approve it, and only what you approve reaches your store.
Can I undo a change?+
Yes, in one click. Every product keeps a history of each earlier version, so you can restore it or start from an older one. Changes applied to all products at once can be undone together with one button.
Who picks the keyword?+
You or Rutbot. Type the phrase you want customers to find you by, or let Rutbot suggest the best fit for each product from real searches in your market, and approve it before anything is written.
Can I control the writing style?+
Yes. In Writing style you set the tone, the words you prefer and the words you never want in your store. Rutbot follows them in everything it writes, so your store keeps one voice.
Will every product get the same text?+
No. Each description is written from that product's own data and keyword, so Google never sees near-identical pages. Bulk templates are only used for Google titles and descriptions, filled with each product's details.
AI visibility
What does showing up in AI answers mean?+
Many shoppers now ask ChatGPT or Gemini instead of searching: "Where can I buy genuine oud in Riyadh?". Rutbot prepares your store to be understood and quoted - clear descriptions, structured data, FAQs and an llms.txt file - then asks the models your keywords and tells you whether they mention you.
Is the AI visibility score accurate?+
It's an index out of 100 built from the models' real answers to your keywords. Answers shift from day to day, so we measure over time and show the trend: whether more answers mention you.
Results
When will I see results?+
Changes appear in your store the moment you approve. Google re-reads pages within days, and rankings usually move within 4 to 8 weeks depending on how competitive your keywords are. Nobody can guarantee the top spot, and anyone who does isn't being honest.
How do I know a change worked?+
Connect Search Console from your dashboard and Rutbot compares each page's impressions and clicks before and after the change, showing what improved and what dropped.
Is my store data safe?+
We use your store data only to improve your store; we never share or sell it, and each store's data is kept separate. Disconnect any time, and if you ask us to delete your account and data, we do it within 30 days.
Pricing and payment
Is there a contract?+
No. Plans are monthly; cancel any time and you keep access until the end of the paid period. The free plan is always there.
What happens if I run out of credits mid-month?+
Only new improvements pause; everything already published stays in your store. Your allowance renews next month, or you can add credits or upgrade any time.
Which currency do I pay in?+
In the Gulf you pay by card in your own currency: SAR, AED, KWD, QAR, BHD or OMR. In Egypt you pay in EGP by card or InstaPay, or in USD.
