Rank Math SEO Plugin
Rank Math is a new SEO plugin for 2019.
I have been using the Rank Math SEO plugin on my new site for almost a month now.
I will be replacing All In One as well as Yoast on my other sites.
I found the Rank Math plugin easy to set up. It imported my AIO settings without problem. Also, it was easy to integrate with Google Search Console.
The following screenshots highlight some features I like.
This screenshot is the Rank Math plugin page showing the modules available. Rank Math users can choose which modules they want to use.
You may click on the image to open a larger version in a new tab or window.
The following image is a screenshot of the Rank Math Search Console populated with Google data. Since the site is new, the statistics are not good and not unexpected.
A handy function of Rank Math Search Analysis is the keywords section. It tracks Google keyword search results. A keyword tracker is under development.
Rank Math lets you view how your post appears in Google even before publishing. You can edit the snippet as you like.
Much like Yoast, Rank Math evaluates all your SEO factors including Readability, inclusion of keywords, and more.
However, there are minor bugs that Rank Math continues to work. Furthermore, they are transparent about bugs and what is in development. Plus, there is an active Rank Math Facebook group, in which the Rank Math co-founder is very active.

Hi Glen.
I didn't even finish reading this. As soon as I got to the "replacing ... Yoast" part, I thought, "I'm in!"
Yoast isn't bad, but by golly it is **seriously** overpriced, in my opinion. What annoys me most is that on top of being overpriced, they want also to charge me for each sub domain—how bonkers is that?
Look, thanks for this, I'm off to install it into my websites to see how I feel about it. I'm using SEOPress in my sub domains currently. It's lightweight and terrifically easy to use. So, we'll see...
Thanks for sharing!
Have fun and I wish you a home filled with happiness.
Regards,
You're welcome, Tayo. Rank Math has turned into a time saver for me. I can find and fix SEO mistakes quicker now.

I like it so far.
It has highlighted to me how important it is to be on social media—something neither earlier SEO engine did (Yoast and SEOPress).
As you say, its presentation is dead easy to understand and use. I'm hopeful about it.
PS. Lolz. I love the way it deactivated SEOPress without even asking. Like, "Ferget that stuff, fella, we'll take it from here." 😜😊
I have Rank Math plugin already for my theme. It was recommended for my specific fast SEO WP theme. I have yet to use it and I was hoping for a tutorial on how to use it. Now that you explained where I can find it. Great, many many thanks, Glen. I appreciate it. I will save this post. Thanks for the FB group information.
Thanks for posting this, Glen, it looks like a potentially great plugin. Right now, we are just a little nervous about switching from All in One, particularly if, as you say, they are still ironing out bugs, but we will definitely give this another look, maybe in a few months time. Please keep us all informed how you get on with it.

I should have mentioned that the Rank Math plugin is from MyThemeShop. So I am confident they will get it sorted out. Like you, I will keep AIO for a while longer.
Hi Glen, I did try Rank Math for about a month and was quite impressed with all the features. I did this awhile back and I see they have made several improvements since. I have used Yoast and am currently using the AIO. I just may be going back to Rank Math in the near future. Thank you for the share.

It's working for me so far. I suggest looking at their Facebook group.

Hi all!
I added Rank Math a couple of weeks ago. Whilst I find it very helpful and easy to use, it meant that All In One SEO was disabled.
Is there a way around this, e.g temporarily disabling All In One then re-activating it once you've acted on its suggestions?
Or will that mess up how All In One works?
you only need one plug-in if you want to go back to all in one then delete rank Math.
Thanks Catherine. I've done that. I figured that if WA are using AIO then I'll stick with it. I do like a lot of the features and usability on Rank Math though.
