Rank Math Pro Review | Best WordPress SEO Plugin

When it comes to creating a WordPress Website and we want some support on our SEO work, we use to go for Yoast, since it has been the most known WordPress SEO plugin. Of course, years ago the best and easy option to work on SEO for WordPress was Yoast. It was easy to install, and easy to add the Meta Data. It helped to create the sitemap and it seem that it was fine. But as I kept learning more about SEO, Technical SEO, On-Page and Off-Page SEO, Backlinks, and so on, I understood a bit more that SEO was more than just adding a plugin. Creating content for the user is the main aim that will help your website to attract visitors. As you gain more traffic, and you improve your content, it would be higher the possibility to rank better on search engines. But I kept learning more and I got to know more about Structured Data and Schema Markup. As search engines still read content on a structured way, there are elements on websites that help those crawlers to understand better your website. So when I was aiming to add the structured data on my blog, I found out that Yoast was not supporting this side. At least on the paid version that I got. I searched for other plugins that could support this area of Schema Generators, but didn’t found anything really good. It was a matter of time until I find out about Rank Math. They had a free plugin that was similiar to Yoast. Rank Math seem to be a good option to test out, since all the reviews out there were positive. I decided to give it a try, and by my surprise it was similar and even better than Yoast. Rank Math was compatible with WPML, an important compatibility that I was looking for, since my blog is in multiple languages, and I aim for International SEO. I can’t say that I am a SEO expert, and I am still behind from the full SEO Pros, but I can see that my website it is slowly positioning itself on search engines. Adding Rank Math helped me on the same areas that Yoast did. Rank Math is leightweight so it doesn’t adds too much code to your WordPress Website, and it doesn’t slow you that much. As Rank Math have been improving, it had add some analytics so that you can observe how are your numbers going, but it still needs improvement, due to some bugs. After a year I started to use Rank Math, then they offered Rank Math Pro, which the main support was on the Schema Generator, and the addition of Schema Markup for Video, and Local SEO. Getting Rank Math Pro at its earliest, might not be the best decision, since it was probably too early to buy it, and that meant that there were many things under development. As time has past, Rank Math Pro had received plenty updates that have improved the plugin. On their changelog, you can find out more about the improvements and fixes that Rank Math Pro has received. One of the big advantages is the analytics module, where you can keep a better track and connection with your site numbers. It also has a connection with Bing Webmasters, which facilitates the indexation to Microsoft’s search engines. I hope that this brief Rank Math Pro Review, helps you to know more about the best WordPress SEO plugin. My Blog is still far from reaching the point I was years ago, but now that I am reactivating it, for sure it is growing slow and steady. As we all know, SEO is a long term process, and a right work, for sure it will help to improve its positions. To Read more visit: Rank Math Pro Review
