Hello,
We apologize for the issues you’re facing regarding focus keywords. Thank you for raising your inquiries.
-
Changing Focus Keywords Frequently: Yes, you can change the focus keyword as needed to suit your page style. However, if you are using the free version of Rank Math, you will need to remove the existing focus keywords and then add the new ones again. In the PRO version, you can simply drag and drop to reorder them or change the primary focus keyword easily.
-
Adding Multiple Related Keywords: You can add multiple focus keywords in Rank Math, but only the first keyword you add will be considered the primary focus keyword. The primary focus keyword is denoted by a star icon next to it. If you try to add more than one focus keyword in certain areas like categories, it may not be allowed as it doesn’t make sense to optimize a short piece of content for multiple keywords.
If you have any further questions or need assistance with a specific issue, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further!
