You are welcome! Just keep in mind that I covered just a part of it.
ReplyHi Kathy, it looks like you have some experience with this plugin and I can’t seem to get a support question answered in the forums. In your first screenshot above that you have indicated as “Initial page analysis” All of my indicators should be green and not red based on the content, titles, description, etc that I have on my page.
Do you know why this does not work or where I can get support besides the wordpress forum?
From your review and others it looks like a great plugin and I want to get it running.
Thanks.
ReplyHi Joe,
First off, I believe you have to update your post before the page analysis refreshes. If that is not it then you need to look at your configuration. It might be related to the version of WordPress that you are running or even the theme. If if you are not on the latest WordPress version I would try upgrading and even switch over to twenty-eleven briefly to see whether that makes a difference.
Hi Kathy,
I’m new to running a website as well as to WordPress. I came across your article while looking for help to optimize my site. This seems like a great plugin and you did a wonderful job of explaining its benefits. I have a traditional WordPress website and not a blog. Can I still use this plugin? Or is this designed mainly for WordPress blogs? And, if I can use it on a website, do I have to modify how I use it in any way?
Sincerely,
John
Hi John,
You can use this plugin on non blog sites. Some of the settings may not make sense for non blog sites, but the features I covered in this post are relevant for both. Additionally generating a XML sitemap, which this plugin provides, is something you want for both types of sites. Thanks for your question!
Yes, the plugin works great on non blog WordPress sites, especially the part I walked through. Some of the configuration settings will not be that useful for non blogs but most are.
ReplyKathy, thanks for an outstanding review and explanation; have been using All in One SEO which was okay but wanted another level. Your explanation makes Yoast a shoe-in for me! I love your description about how it can “train” the user in-workstream. Thanks for your guidance! Chris
