What's going wrong
During a promotional period, many site owners say the SEO plugin displayed large animated banner ads across all WordPress admin pages, not just its own settings. Some banners had close buttons that opened a sales page instead, and notices stayed even after the plugin was deactivated or deleted. Agencies reported clients who thought their sites had been hacked, and some dropped the plugin. Owners want admin areas kept free of upsell banners. The opportunity is an admin cleanup tool that blocks third-party banners and reports unwanted notices across client sites.
