SEO Meta Description
Custom scripts can tweak meta tags—but is that enough? Discover how CMO.SO’s AI SEO automation via Maggie’s AutoBlog beats manual coding for daily, optimized content.
Why Compare Custom Scripts and AI SEO Automation?
If you’re running an SME in Europe, you’ve likely dabbled with SEO scripts. Maybe you added Open Graph tags in ServiceNow or tinkered with generateCustomTagsForSEO(). The process can feel satisfying. You’re in control. You see your code. Yet…it’s time-consuming. Hard to scale. And what about daily content updates?
That’s where AI SEO automation comes in. With CMO.SO’s Maggie’s AutoBlog, you get fresh, optimized posts delivered every day. No scripts to maintain. No portal cache to clear. Just content that drives traffic.
In this post, you’ll learn:
* How manual SEO scripts work—and where they fall short
* What CMO.SO’s automated solution offers
* A side-by-side comparison
* Practical tips to optimize your portal pages
Ready? Let’s dive in.
1. The Rise of Custom SEO Scripts
What They Do
Custom SEO scripts let you inject tags, keywords, and structured data right into your portal pages. For example, in ServiceNow you might override:
generateCustomTagsForSEO() {
return [
'<meta property="og:title" content="Custom Title">',
'<meta property="og:description" content="Custom Description">'
];
}
Sounds neat. And it is—when it works.
Strengths
- Full control over tag markup and attributes
- Immediate edits in code or script includes
- Small footprint for simple use cases
Limitations
- Time-intensive setup and debugging
- Requires developer skill and ongoing maintenance
- Poor fit for non-tech users
- Hard to generate fresh daily content
- No built-in community insights or performance tracking
In short, custom scripts shine for one-off fixes. But they struggle with content at scale. And they leave out SEO best practices unless you’re an expert coder.
