"Yoast Makes SEO Optimization Fast and Easy"
What do you like best about Yoast?

I have used Yoast for 6 years now. The traffic light system giving instant feedback makes it easy to optimize our listings. It integrates seamlessly with both Wordpress and Shopify. It helps my team optimize listings in an efficient manner and helps them better understand SEO practices when building product pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yoast?

On the shopify platform it's a bit sensitive. When you go into a product and back out you have to redo your whole search. It also can be a bit glitchy when trying to sort products by key phrase missing etc. I wish it could be integrated into the backend of the product page so I did not have to go to the plugin after creating my product page.

"A Must-Have SEO Tool That Seamlessly Integrates with WordPress"
What do you like best about Yoast?

Perfect for SEO on out website. Integrates with Wordpress seamlessly and not only assists with SEO but teaches you along the way. A great tool and a must have for any website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yoast?

I would say its been the same since i began using it 5 years ago, so if there is one thing i could say would be new functions and features. The AI add on is great but apart from that nothing much new. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Meta Management, Well-Supported"
What do you like best about Yoast?

I find that Yoast is really easy to use, and it's a well-supported plugin. I also appreciate the ability to set default meta titles, and descriptions for pages, posts, and other custom post types. The initial setup was very easy, which I think is a big plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yoast?

Probably just its integration within WordPress editors has never been that great - always being right at the bottom of the editor, but that is fairly limited. That's why I prefer to setup good defaults such as using excerpt, featured images, titles and tags as part of the "formula". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their enhanced schema and internal linking recommendations also make on-page optimization much smarter and faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yoast?

Yoast can improve your on-page SEO by optimizing meta titles, descriptions, keywords, and readability.

It also helps with XML sitemaps, schema markup, and overall content structure for better search visibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Boosts Website Visibility with Key SEO Features"
What do you like best about Yoast?

I use Yoast for web analytics, site maps, and optimizing my content's visibility and readability on Google. I find Yoast very helpful because it improves website content and visibility. The traffic system is straightforward, with different colors indicating traffic levels, making it easy to understand. It's also beneficial to see and add meta titles and descriptions, and it generates XML files for sitemaps. These features are important for using SEO effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yoast?

Some features are a bit too limited, particularly the keywords feature. The scoring system sometimes doesn't perform well, and I've noticed a bit of a loading issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless On-Page SEO with Actionable Insights"
