What it does
Readers who finish an article often leave because nothing points them to the next one. This plugin fills that gap by looking at your existing content and suggesting related posts, pages and products ranked by relevance. It draws on the SearchWP search engine to decide what counts as related, and you can override the automatic picks by choosing exactly which items should appear next to a given post or product.
Placement works without code. You can add related content anywhere with Gutenberg blocks, or turn on auto-append so suggestions show up at the end of posts and pages. Templates range from simple article lists to more visual product displays, and you control titles, styling and the maximum number of items. That makes it a fit for blogs and news sites as well as stores that want to suggest products inside their content.
Best for
- Blogs that want readers to find more articles
- News sites with large archives of related stories
- Online stores promoting products alongside editorial content

Questions about SearchWP Related
Can I choose the related posts myself instead of relying on automatic picks?
Yes. The plugin suggests related content automatically based on relevance, but you can also handpick exactly which posts or products appear as related items, giving you control where the automatic results are not what you want.
Do I need to write code to add related content to my pages?
No. You can place related content with Gutenberg blocks wherever you like, or enable auto-append so suggestions appear at the end of posts and pages automatically. Both options work without writing code.
Can it show products as well as blog posts?
Yes. It can suggest posts, pages and products, and it includes templates for visual product displays. That lets you promote relevant products as upsells or cross-promotions directly inside your regular content.
How much control do I have over how the related section looks?
You can pick from several layout templates, then adjust styling, section titles, the maximum number of related items and other settings so the section fits your site design.
