After that, when you open the settings screen, you can make simple settings such as the following.
- SELECT WORLD: You can choose the background for the Metaverse, but the free version only includes one.
- MANAGE SITE PATH: You can change the URL of the metaverse page. The default setting is "/playcanvas".
- MANAGE IMAGE: You can have up to 18 images and links in the metaverse.
The settings screen is simple and there are few options, so it was easy to set up.
Once you've finished the setup, open the Metaverse page and you'll see the following screen:

- Character Controller
- Link to your own image(This time, we are linking images and pages on this site.)
- Plugin Description (English)
- Navigating up and down in the metaverse
To control the character, move the cursor on the controller up, down, left and right. If you are familiar with smartphone games, you will find it easy to operate.
There was no way to specify the image size on the settings screen, but I set a landscape image, so the image shrank vertically. It seems that a portrait image is better.
When you place the cursor on the image, you will be taken to the linked page.
With Vma plus Station, creating a metaverse space was very easy, as all it took was installing the plugin and setting up images and links.
The free version has limitations, but I found it easy to create and enjoyed controlling the characters.
It may be a good idea to promote the links to the images placed in the space while allowing users to enjoy them.
SEO evaluation of metaverse spatial pages
When using this plugin, a single static WordPress page is used and when you access that page, the metaverse space appears.
This static page has a default article title of "PlayCanvas" and the article URL is the same.
For now, you can change the title and article URL, but I'm curious to see how this metaverse page will perform in terms of search engine optimization (SEO).

So I asked Google Gemini, a generative AI company, and received the following response:
*Please note that the generated AI may experience hallucinations (incorrect answers), so please use this information for reference only.
As such, at the time of updating this article, it appears that SEO measures for metaverse space pages are difficult to implement.
If you are creating a page in the metaverse space, you should consider the following two things:
- Noindex a page (set it so that it cannot be loaded or displayed by search engines)
- Set it according to keywords such as article titles and check the search ranking
summary
Anyone can easily create a metaverse space using the WordPress plugin "Vma plus Station".
If you want to make your website more attractive, give it a try.
