4XOD review for Yoast SEO ‑ Store optimization
March 8, 2024
I know Yoast from years back on WP. Already then it was the #1 SEO app. So obviously I started using it for Shopify. But I have mixed feelings about the Yoast SEO for Shopify app. Compared to other main SEO apps Yoast is seriourly lacking features such as: - A SEO dashboard which gives you your SEO status, page speed status, etc - Image optimization is not possible within Yoast - Image alt texts are not possible within Yoast. (adding alt descriptions to thousands of product variant images is a lot of work) - Page speed optimization is not there as well (lazy loading, code optimization/minification, etc) - No FAQ function (which is quite important for SEO) - A process that guides you through all the needed steps to optimize your site for SEO is missing. Where it really shines: - What is does really well is the page by page optimization. it gives you detailed analysis of SEO factors, readability, SEM factors, SM tweaks, etc. The years of SEO experience really show off here. - Adding schemas/structured data to your pages automatically (except FAQ) - Readability insight with scoreboard.
