WordPress Meta Data FAQs

Is Yoast Plugin Free?

Yes, Yoast offers both a free and paid plugin. The free plugin should be fine for most businesses, but the paid version does help with better onsite page optimisation. In any case, I suggest you install the free version so you can learn the tool before you upgrade to a paid version.

Why should I update the page title?

When you build pages in WordPress, the software will use the page name as the meta title. In most cases, this would not be the best option for an optimised page title.

When building a WordPress Website Design solution for your business it is important that you try to optimise all pages and blog posts for better search engine visibility.

Are meta descriptions important?

It is important to optimise your meta descriptions as the content is used in the search engine results. In general, you should try to incorporate keywords into your page’s meta description.
