Thnx!

Any other plug-in you guys recommend and why?

Now that's a good question!

Any fool can post a plugin name, but... how about explaining the benefit of why it's good.

Otherwise, how is anyone (especially a newbie) going to know what suits their needs etc.

Okay, Rank Math is like Yoast on steroids.

It has everything including the tiles and descriptions really eaisily, check keywords and get tips to optimize. Yoast and all in one seo pack do this but this just seems better It also has an option for rich snippets and adding nofollow tags with just a click.

You can get it to open links in a new window easily without any html knowledge which is what i suppose plugins are all about. It has a monitoring system for 404's.

You can integrate search console, and optimise your content for upto 5 keywords. It's also free!!

It has a built in redirects tool which means no need for another other plugin that does this. This is a common rank math thing, they seem to have done away with the need for a lot of plugins by wrapping them up into this one. They say they are the "swiss army knife of wordpress SEO".

I'm still working with it and have been a couple of weeks. Overall I find it a great improvemant to Yoast which was my goto SEO plugin.

Theres tons more features and site checks rank math does but i'm still trying it all out.

So why would i reccomend this so far after just 2 weeks?

It's seems better and does away with other plugins. You can do more in one place which saves time. A proper all in one solution really, so far so good.

I know thats not a good review or explaination, I did intend it to be, however i'm in a huge rush because its bonfire night and the kids are pulling at my arm waiting to go let some fireworks off!

Yes thanks, I too will look at this based on your review, even if you felt it should be more in depth, you covered a lot of the key points.

I find Rank math highlights spelling mistakes too which yoast doesnt when using chrome. Title tags are also suggested to be truncated at 60 characters whereas yoast is 65 I think? I've only used it for a few days and not had a proper play with the score aspect of it yet. I am sure it can also suggest other links from your other posts too so you can link to other relevant pages as well

Agree with Rick, you've covered all the major points, whilst also adding your opinion from hands on experience. What you've done is miles ahead of anything most people post, with regards to plugin suggestions. So I'm sure those who are genuinely interested, will appreciate the time you've taken to compile your RankMath review. I certainly do, thanks

I definitely think yoast is the best. I don't have any experience with the premium version, but I'm sure I'll get it soon.

Advantages in my opinion:

- Clear possibilities for improvement
- Optimizing texts live on keywords
- Easy meta text editing
