How to Add news Keywords to rankmath

Hello,

Unfortunately, there’s no way to add the news_keywords meta tag within Rank Math settings.

However, you can add this filter to your site to add it in the source code of your whole site:

add_action( 'rank_math/head', function() {
    echo '<meta property="my_property" content="Aurangabad, Begasurai, ..." />';
}, 99 );

You can add all the keywords from your screenshot in the code above inside the content= line.

Here is a guide you can follow to add the filter:

Hope that helps.

Hello,

That tutorial is for the keywords meta tag while in your screenshot, you are showing news_keywords which is not available in our plugin so you’ll have to manually add it as instructed by my colleague.

Looking forward to helping you.

Hello,

Adding any meta tag to your code won’t reduce anything. It’s an additional optimization step to help search engines or other bots understand your content better.

However, please note that Google does not honor meta keywords for quite a long now so we never added them to the plugin.

You can read more about that here:

Remember to focus on quality content and relevant keywords in the content for the best SEO results.

Hello,

There’s no need to be gaps in the keywords as they are comma separated and search engines that read them will have no trouble with that.
