    2. I am using elementor on wordpress and both seem to be syncing the SEO, although I am unable to save or update the wordpress interface Rankmath and the seo scores seem to fluctuate, not record the SItename in keywords.

    here is another one to see the difference, this is before the above, all keywords were green and I was on page 1 for the same. and the day later it’s not reading the same.

    while on the wordpress dashboard it says 96 and has focus keyword but not recording it. Both are below.

    Finally, There is a noindex and nofollow tag in the header that is blocking crawlers to read and also marking me down on SEO.

    I am still trying to figure out if Rankmath is the solution. Everyone ranking on page 1 are using Yoast and I ranked in page 1 on 3th place for performx performance marketing, now I am not. Below is the snippet were the Site Name hasnt updated a yet it came through, it got rid of the dash.

    How can there be such high fluctuations and also please let me know whats I am not doing. Also some Social Cards are mssing it reports. I am happy to get the edition of your product provided I know it works as good.

    Hi Jeremy,

    Thank you for the prompt reply,

    From inside of elementor its shows 96 and at the same time on google page speed has it at 92, and when deactivating elementor its 100, and thats the onlt time when page insight and seo coincide.

    How is rankmath reading wordpress headers using the shortcodes, similarly whats missing, is elementor blocking you from reading within that container? (a feature they sell as Elementor Pro) or Rankmath is unable to read it. Please answer this as Elementor is blocking or RankMath cannot read so to understand.

    You just have the direct the H1 of rankmath to read shortcode for custom html block elementor.

    Here are some the others.

    → the page is not recording nofollow or follow, i used to add them together for links to avoid adding the rel=no follow.

    This error keeps showing up “We found 1 outbound links in your content and all of them are nofollow.”

    Its also the same in Moz.

    Sitemap not recording hreflang, only en-us, not showing up in other places, should I add it separately in the header?

    site:performx.me does not have me indexed in UK UAE etc, just checked to see, this was working cos i was drawing some traffic form these locations organically.

    Hello,

    Please note that Rank Math’s Content Analysis and Google PageSpeed Insights use very different evaluation methods as PageSpeed focuses on performance metrics, while Rank Math analyzes only the on-page content such as headings, keywords, links, and metadata.

    Rank Math reads the content that’s available through WordPress’ content filters. When Elementor shortcodes or custom HTML widgets are used, the content inside them is not always parsed by WordPress until the Elementor editor renders it. That’s why you see different SEO scores inside Elementor versus the default WordPress editor.

    In short, Elementor controls the rendering of those custom containers while Rank Math relies on WordPress’ content output, so it cannot “bypass” Elementor’s rendering layer. That’s why it’s always best to check and rely on the SEO score shown inside the Elementor editor.

    As for the outbound links issue, please share the affected post/page URL(s) so we can check this directly. Sometimes, visual builders add extra wrappers or filters that modify the rel attributes before the content is analyzed, which can cause this type of detection issue.

    As for the hreflang, Rank Math doesn’t add hreflang tags automatically, as this is handled by multilingual/translation plugins (like WPML, Polylang, or TranslatePress). Our sitemap only lists the primary language URLs and the alternate language links are expected to be output at the HTML level by your translation plugin.

    To confirm that your sitemap is valid, you can use Google Search Console or this validator tool: https://www.xml-sitemaps.com/validate-xml-sitemap.html

    Last but not least, the trailing slash behavior is controlled by WordPress, not Rank Math. Please go to WordPress Dashboard → Settings → Permalinks, and make sure your permalink structure includes the trailing slash as shown here: https://i.rankmath.com/ZQJx8L

    Once adjusted, both Rank Math and your sitemap should read the URLs consistently as https://performx.me/.

    Don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any other questions.
