✓  Yoast SEOThe great thing about Yoast is that you can handle a lot of your SEO needs on a post-by-post basis, straight from the content editor. It’s really nice to not have to switch to a different screen just to enter your meta title and description for search engines. Plus, Yoast can tell you (with a green, yellow, or red light) whether or not your post is optimized correctly.

✓ Yoast SEO
This is the obvious one. It’s been downloaded more than 5 million times and is arguably the most well-known WordPress plugin. I’ve spent more than a decade in SEO and I still use Yoast because you simply wouldn’t do what it offers manually. But don’t stress if you are an SEO newbie, Yoast requires very little knowledge to implement the basics. Are there Yoast alternatives? Yes there are but for ease of use and staying up to date, you can’t go past Yoast SEO.

This plugin is the gold standard for improving your website’s SEO. It has a very simple start-up wizard to get you going fast as well as “under the hood” features for more technical users to really do some deeper tweaking.

I have what you call the “trinity” plugins. No matter what your WordPress site is for, you have to have these plugins or a good alternative to them, installed.

✓ Yoast SEO
Yoast SEO is the go-to plugin for basic optimizations for your website. What makes it so great is that both experts and total beginners can effectively use it. It holds your hand and walks you through basic configurations. It gives you suggestions in optimizing the content, title and URL of your pages and posts. It always generates a sitemap for you. It saves experts a lot of time and educates beginners.

✓ Yoast SEO
This is my number one plugin for WordPress. SItemap generation, quick Google Analytics installation, and readability scores all come packaged within the free plugin. The most useful feature I find is the ability to change meta titles and descriptions on a post or page is extremely useful and timesaving.

✓ Yoast
Yoast Plugin is number one on my list. Yoast is an SEO plugin that optimizes meta tags, targetted keywords, and other link elements that search engines read before showing results to users. A must-have if you want to drive organic traffic to your site.

✓ Yoast Premium
Yoast is a plugin that helps with SEO. It provides a checklist that assesses each page / post on your blog or website to allow you optimize for your selected keyword. Yoast Premium also helps analyze metadata on your site and create a sitemap for Google. And if you have many old posts or pages on your blog or website, Yoast creates a list of “orphaned content” or content that has no links pointing to it so that you can develop better internal links on your site.

Here’s my favourite plugins which I’d recommend to any WordPress site owner or webmaster seeking to improve the performance and visibility of their website for both users and search engines.

✓ Yoast SEO
Yoast SEO is a really handy plugin for business owners and marketers alike, taking some of the heavy lifting out of optimising your website for technical SEO items (such as metadata, canonical tags, URLsstructures, XML sitemaps and Schema) as well as helping improve the content structure and performance of your website.

With a simple-to-use interface for both beginners and seasoned marketers, it’s a must-have for any new WordPress build, in my view.

✓ Yoast
There is no better WordPress plug for SEO than Yoast. The plugin is a perfect tool to direct organic traffic from the Search engines. The free version is good but the premium version is better because you can optimize your content for more than 1 focus keywords unlike the free version.
