Copy Compass is a Worpress plugin developed by Talooma, a South African based digital marketing company.

Copy Compass strives to bridge the gap between SEO best practices and the flood of user generated content that is added to websites on a daily basis. This WordPress plugin aims to simplify the learning curve required to write content that is both easy to read and that ranks well in search engines.
