  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with importing your meta titles and other data from Yoast SEO. If you are encountering an error during the import process, here are a few steps you can take:

    1. Ensure Yoast SEO is Deactivated: Make sure that the Yoast SEO plugin is deactivated before you start the import process in Rank Math. You can do this in the Rank Math Setup Wizard.

    2. Use the Import & Export Feature: If you missed importing data during the Setup Wizard, you can still import it by navigating to Rank Math SEO → Status & Tools → Import & Export. From there, select the Other Plugins section and choose the data you want to import from Yoast SEO.

      Import & Export Tab

    3. Check for Conflicts: Sometimes, other plugins may conflict with the import process. Ensure that there are no other SEO plugins active on your site.

    4. Recalculate SEO Scores: If you have the option to recalculate SEO scores during the import, try unchecking that option to see if it resolves the issue.

    If these steps do not resolve the problem, please reply to this ticket with any specific error messages you are receiving, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.

    Thank you for raising this concern!

    Thank you.

    My titles and meta are not pulling over. I have to manually enter them all again in order to get a score.

    Hello,

    In this case, please try reimporting the data again in Rank Math > Status & Tools > Import & Export > Other Plugins, then under the plugin column, uncheck the Calculate SEO Scores option below, and click the Import button.

    There’s an issue with the Calculate SEO Scores option upon importing the Yoast data which might hinder the process.

    However, if you want to recalculate the scores, then you can follow the steps in this link later on:

    This took a while to get responses and I paid somebody to work on it. I deleted Rank Math and went back to Yoast since I could not get this resolved.

    Hello,

    We’re sorry to hear about your experience and that you had to switch back.

    We appreciate you giving Rank Math a try, and if you decide to revisit it in the future, we’ll be here to help you get everything set up smoothly.
