Good morning! I may be asking very stupid questions please bear with me. I have two websites that I am working on. I get a little or maybe a lot confused with the plugins. I de

You only need the ONE seo plugin. Having more than one creates a conflict.

However, as a general rule, there shouldn't be an issue if the plugins are well-coded.

I have a website with 45 plugins installed on it, and it runs superbly.

Keep rankmath if you are happy with it, and delete the other
No worries

I have rankmath Pro

Thanks, dear!

You're welcome :)

On plugin

Hey Sonto,

Yes, you should only ever have ONE SEO plugin installed on each individual website.

WA now automatically installs the SEO Framework on all new WA-hosted websites.

Other popular SEO plugins are:

All-in--SEO
Yoast
Rank Math

WA used to automatically pre-install the All-in-One SEO plugin, but this became a liability over the years.

Firstly, you must remember that ALL plugins are created by a business person//entrepreneur.

So, even though most standard plugins have a free option, the aim of any business person is to Make Money.

Therefore, you'll often see messages to "upgrade", etc.

However, with AIO SEO you are constantly being pushed into installing Monster Insights, and also about upgrading.

Unfortunately, over the years AIO SEO has become very "glitchy" and a LOT of problems caused on websites is typically a conflict between a theme, plugin, etc. with the AIO SEO plugin.

This is why Kyle decided to remove this as a pre-installed plugin and replace it with SEO Framework.

You won't have these "glitch" and "breaking your site" issues with SEO Framework, Yoast, or Rank Math.

So, YES, delete the AIO SEO plugin.

The only real difference it will make is that any articles that you used the AIO SEO plugin to "do your SEO stuff with" will now show as not being SEO'd (for want of a better word).

However, in truth, this really doesn't make that much of a difference.

SEO plugins are more for guidance, they don't actually "do anything".

I know many people feel that an SEO plugin possesses "magical powers" and it will catapault them to the top of the rankings...

BUT

An SEO plugin is actually nothing more than a writing template.

So, if you see your older articles, with which you used the AIO SEO plugin saying they "don't have SEO data" you can ignore this.

Remember, you haven't changed the article in any way, it is still exactly the same article as before, so removing the AIO SEO plugin won't make any difference.

As for "breaking your site", this is not really something you should overly worry about as a WA member.

Don't forget that SiteSupport take a backup of ALL your websites every 24 hours.

So, if your website crashes, explodes, breaks into a millions pieces and loses every bit of content you have ever written - Sitesupport can still replace your website exactly, word-for-word from 24 hours earlier.

So, don't worry about that!

Make sense?

Get rid of AIO SEO plugin and maintain your sites with just ONE SEO plugin, the choice of which is entirely YOURS.

Partha

Thank you for taking your time to explain this. It is as clear as daylight for a person like me and I think many others who may have a similar issue will gain from this. Thank you ever so much.

AIOSEO helps w/ search engine optimisation. Google Site Kit is different as it helps you track rankings and analytics. So there is no overlap. Monster Insights I think overlaps w/ Site Kit. Also, I think Rankmath overlaps w/ AIOSEO.

Thank you. You guys are helping me understand in layman's terms what exactly my issue is.

Happy to help :)

How do I add another post page on my website, the reason is that I want to have a page where I can write healthy recipes for my visitors.

Richard and Frank have summoned this up very well…I have nothing else to add, he’s got you covered well!

Please let us know if you still have any questions.

-Mike

Hi Sonto
I presume you are asking how you can set up a separate BLOGROLL for showing posts of healthy recipes?
The simplest way is to add a Category called "Healthy Recipes" that you then assign to each post that you want to show up under that category.
Then in Appearance / Menus add the Category to your menu and place it where you want it (remember to SAVE the menu). Then when you render your site, if someone clicks that menu item it will show the posts in that category.
IF you get stuck, feel free to send a PM.
:-)
Richard

Go into the Block Editor and select “Post —> New Post.”

You can do the same in Site Content.

Frank 🎸

Thank you, Frank! You have saved me the time of having to go back to the tutorials.

You're welcome, Sonto. 😎

@ The Abie I want to put callable link on my niche website. It is a website for an organisation that deals with Gender Based Violence. I want the clients to be able to click the "Call Us" button and be directed to the cell phone app so that it is easy for them to reach us.

Thank you I will look at the resource for further reference. I got lazy and asked my son to do it for me. I will definately look at the resource because he will not always be available to help.

Fastest way would be to make a backup of your website with a plugin and import it into a free siterubix site.

You would then need to change your domain’s name server settings to WA’s and use the “move” option to move the free siterubix site to your domain.

KKKKK That's Greek to me. I am not an IT fundi. Explain as if you are explaining to a child.

Yes, it does have content, and I wouldn't want to start all over.

Great I'd get with site support for further instructions migrate it over. or if you know what you are doing, you can migrate it yourself

You would need the AIO WP Migration plugin. .
