Rank Math Plugin Basic Review 2021

So what is the Rank Math plugin and what is it for? It’s a Search Engine Optimization plugin for WordPress websites that makes it easy for anyone to optimise their content (blog posts). Does that answer the question? No? That’s why I am doing this Rank Math Plugin Basic Review 2021.

Why is it basic? To whet your appetite for more. Too much information all at once can be offputting, so I am showing you why it is so good without overloading you with detail.

Why I care!

I came across it early last year and decided to try it out on one of my websites. Why? Because it seemed like a good idea as SEO has always been a bit of a mystery to me. Well, we can’t always pick up everything all at once.

My websites all had the ‘all-in-one-SEO plugin’. Maybe I could have done more with that but I have no idea what and now I don’t need to learn about it.

Though to be honest, SEO is still a mystery to me, I find it complicated. But luckily for me, I discovered the Rank Math plugin and downloaded the free version to test out on one website. It wasn’t long before I added it to all my websites.

I liked it so much and was so impressed that I went for the multi-site Pro version! I have to say, that for me, it was worth every penny.

Anything that helps my business is wonderful in my book!

I am not very technical at all. Things that are complicated I devour in small bite size pieces to integrate it better. What has that got to do with the Rank Math plugin? Read on!

I was amazed by it. I left everything on the default settings mainly because I didn’t have a clue what I was doing. Then I started looking at my posts because you should go over older posts anyway to tweak and improve them. Freshen them up as they say.

Well, it gave me suggestions for improvements! I like that. The more things I changed, the more all these green lights appeared.

It gives an SEO score on each post and for the first time my score had gone up a lot. I tweaked titles and added the focus keyword into the post more.

The score turned green!!!! How cool was that?

It took time but I optimised all my posts until I had a green light on each for the first time..

How it all Began

Lots of the people at Rank Math were well known bloggers before they started Rank Math & MyThemeShop. Their experiences in blogging was the catalyst that pushed them into creating Rank Math. During their various blogging careers they used a great variety of products. Despite many of then being first class, they never found a perfect solution for SEO.

There are many SEO plugins for WordPress, as you probably know, that have lot’s of features and are well made. However, none of them seemed complete, each seemed to have something missing.
Around three years ago, they decided to repair the matter once and for all. They began to form the last word SEO plugin for WordPress which may dwarf the opposite SEO plugin in features, usability, and speed. Rank Math was born.

Their goal has always been to help fellow bloggers around the world with high-quality WordPress products and creating this product was important to them.

What do I think?

I love this plug-in unreservedly. It has a set up wizard that takes you through the process step by step, simple and easy, just the way I like it.

It has made a massive difference to my website as it leads me through the different things I need to check before pressing publish.

When I first got this and it showed me SEO scores, I had 20-30 if I was lucky. Being in the green was a far off dream.

As I worked through old posts using it the scores gradually changed from red, to yellow and then to green which was celebration time.

The first few took the longest, as always, but I soon got the hang of it and the rest were a bit quicker. It wasn’t long before I put it on all my websites and I have never regretted it. After having so much of an improvement I decide to go for the PRO version and I have to say it is even better.

Conclusion

This is, in my opinion, an excellent plugin. This helped me enormously to get my SEO up to scratch on published posts and on all the posts I have written since. Anything that aids  my success and saves me time is good.

If you want to improve your SEO alone, this is worth getting for that but there is so much more to it. With the Pro version the features are continually growing and improving. Plus for now, with the PRO version, you get to use it on as many websites as you like.

I suspect in the future you may need to pay a higher price to use on more websites, a good reason to get it now.

Although, I will say, try the Free version first, after all what suits me, may not suit you. Having said that though, I think you will probably love it as much as I do.

  2. Thanks for bringing us this review of Rank Math.

    At the end of the day SEO is everything.  If you aren’t getting it right then you are totally wasting your time, as the search engines just will not recognise your website and rank it high enough for people to find it.

    Unfortunately that is where I am at this stage and it’s about time I did something about it.

    I therefore plan to check this out today and would recommend that all your readers do the same.

    • Glad to help Geoff. As you said, SEO is a major part of what we do. Without it being done properly we won’t rank in Google or get traffic.

      This plug-in was a revelation to me. I was shocked at how low my scores were. Now I have post’s in the green every time. 

      It is free to download and use. Definitely worth trying.

      Thank you for commenting.

    • It certainly helped me a lot. The wizard makes set up very easy which I liked when I was still quite new at this. 

      It has just got better over the time I have used it. The makers constantly upgrade it, which is very good.

      I hope it helps you as much as it helped me.
