Yoast SEO because we changed the plugin

You can't see it but we no longer have the premium version of Yoast SEO for WordPress or its add-on s for the Google News XML sitemap.

Yoast SEO app reviews everywhere you read are super duper, but for the its developers overdid it.

We changed the plugin and now we use the free version The SEO Framework, using the SEO Data Transporter plugin to transfer our data from one plugin to another. Although it is too early we can already see some differences.

The new add-on has been developed keeping in mind huge and busy websites, so so far we find it much faster compared to other popular SEO add-ons.
Uses fewer server resources than other popular SEO plugins.
Performs fewer processes in SQL and does not add additional tables.
Does not contain .

Yoast developers keep adding controversial for an SEO app. For example, the following contains the tables I deleted from some iGuRu.gr database

When we first installed the plugin years ago, there were no tables. Then the database of each site that uses the application, acquired two tables, wp_yoast_seo_links and wp_yoast_seo_meta. In the last I found that another 4 had been added!

And all this for SEO. No my friends from yoast, thanks I will not take.

I need a plugin that does it its stable, no ads, just work. I don't want to feel like a guinea pig because you came to try something new. Try it with your friends.

Why am I saying this? I noticed the 4 extra tables when I saw a prompt from Yoast SEO to index to add links somewhere. I thought of clicking the index but reading below, they mentioned that it is not mandatory.

Then why did they add it? What do they need and what are they thinking of doing? No I will not look for answers for a plugin that I need to do a specific job. I do not want it to be heavy with a bunch of SEO add-ons. Less code complexity means your server runs less code, which saves you resources if you need them. cache.

As for Google XML sitemaps, the new plugin has the function but only for simple sitemaps and not for Google News. No problem. XML Sitemap & Google News offers both features.

We won't miss them και οι συνεχείς ενημερώσεις όταν ο αλγόριθμος της Google αλλάζει σπάνια. Αντίο, Yoast!
