It tracks and assesses your level of SEO for every single post and page you create. It rates the post and reveals whether the SEO is good, ok, poor etc, so that you can be aware of the post or page\u2019s performance and seek to improve it if necessary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEO methodology<\/strong><br \/>\nAs well as scanning your actual post or page, Yoast presents you with the opportunity to add to your postings, and enhance SEO. You can enter meta description, meta keywords, tags, categories, permalinks, post titles, and more. In fact, you can even preview your post on Google so that you can see what it looks like to the viewer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Getting it right<\/strong><br \/>\nSo, you have completed your meta description, keywords, (and so on and so forth), and you are happy with your article. You submit it. But, your Yoast SEO rating comes back and it is a horrible brown colour when you want it to be a gorgeous green (top rated SEO). What can you do? This is what makes Yoast so great. There is a summary revealing what you are doing well and what you are not. Of course, you will need a company like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rouge-media.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rouge Media<\/a> to assist you with<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.openbusinesscouncil.org\/increase-traffic-to-your-website\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">making SEO improvements<\/a><\/strong> overall, yet Yoast is a very helpful tool in giving you a better understanding of your on-page efforts.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, there is a lot to love about WordPress, and the plugin Yoast. Hopefully, you now have a better understanding as to why this is one of the most popular blogging platforms, and why you should download Yoast in order to make the most of it.<\/p>\n<h6><strong><em>This is an article provided by our partners network.
