Avansa Business Technologies review for Yoast SEO ‑ Store optimization
July 4, 2024
The features are really basic, they are clearly still focused on Wordpress. Even the paid version offers no automated improvements or even bulk edits for Alt tags!? There are definitely better apps out there, this is very average, actually below average
Thank you for sharing your review. We sincerely appreciate your feedback, though we are sorry to hear that our app does not meet all your expectations. While we understand you would like to have more options available in our app, we'd also like to address the points you raised specifically: 1. When it comes to the features available in our Shopify app and those in our WordPress plugins, we want to clarify that is it not a matter of platform focus. As WordPress is an open platform and Shopify is a closed one, there are certain restrictions/limitations when developing features, as we can work with what is offered by Shopify's API. We do understand editing alt text in bulk (besides the bulk edit options we currently offer) would be a useful option, which is why we have a feature request for this to be developed as a feature or an integration. 2. In regards to what our app offers to merchants as well as automated improvements, we understand our app may not match all merchant profiles and needs, so we want to clarify some of the main features our app offers. - Our app lets you optimize your content for your desired keywords (Focus keyphrase field). - The app will output product-specific structured data in the source code of your product pages. This helps your products get rich results in search engines, improving your clickthrough rate (stitched automated schema output). - The app automatically takes care of the technical SEO details (according to best holistic and content SEO practices and search engine guidelines in order to be less vulnerable to core search engine updates). - You can control and optimize how your search results look by letting you set your titles and meta descriptions and influence the search engine results. - You can also control how your products will look on social media when they are shared (Social appearance control). - Access to Yoast Academy premium online courses for you or your staff. Rest assured our team is doing everything possible in order to provide more features (including certain A.I. automations) and value in the near future, so you can get the most out of your existing subscription. Thank you again for sharing your feedback. We appreciate it greatly, as it will help us improve our app and better serve all our app users.
