初学者でも使いやすい

ウェブサイト運用に必要な最小限のMETAタグのカスタマイズができます。機能が最小限でわかりやすいので、ウェブ制作の初学者でも使いやすいと思います。クラシックテーマだけでなく、最新のブロックテーマでも動作します（対応いただきありがとうございます！）。

Great simple product but needs update

This is a great, simple product, but it hasn’t been updated for four months. At this time it has a critical vulnerability and needs to be updated.
