🔥 Introduction

Welcome to this training session on SEO optimization for website articles. We will learn how to improve search engine ranking using RankMath and WordPress.

Currently, many articles have very low SEO scores (below 25/100), which reduces their visibility on Google. Our goal? Achieve a score between 65 and 80, ensuring a balance between readability and SEO.

📌 Where to Find SEO Settings?

  1. Go to the "Articles" page in WordPress.

  2. Check the SEO score column (RankMath).

  3. Click "Edit" (do not select "Edit with Elementor").

  • Add a heading (H2) containing the main keyword.

5️⃣ Optimize Images
