Hello,
We apologize for the frustration you’re experiencing with the power words feature in Rank Math. It seems like there might be a misunderstanding regarding how the plugin evaluates titles.
The plugin checks for power words in your title and also considers the placement of your focus keyword. If your title is short, it can be challenging to meet both criteria simultaneously.
To ensure you’re using power words effectively, you might want to refer to our guide on power words for more insights. Additionally, if you believe there’s a technical issue or if the plugin isn’t functioning as expected, please reply to your ticket with your site URL so that a human agent can assist you further.
Thank you for raising this concern, and we appreciate your patience as we work to resolve it!

To the human that will take into account the problem :
I understood the bug in RankMath : it seems that you do no take into account the plural of powerwords (French).
Ex :
KEYWORD_REDACTED Créez des produits fantastiques | Ecoconception ACV is KO
KEYWORD_REDACTED Créez des produits fantastique | Ecoconception ACV is OK
(it is not a question of length nor position, because I added a double “space” between “Créez” and “des” while suppressing the ending s of “fantastique”.
I suggest to fix this for languages having plural for adjectives…
Hello,
Please note that Rank Math looks for the exact match of the words mentioned here: https://rankmath.com/blog/power-words/#french
We are continuously working to improve our power words, but for now, you can use the following filter code on your website to add the custom power words:
add_filter( 'rank_math/metabox/power_words', function( $words ){
$new_words = [
'test-word1',
'test-word2',
'test-word3',
];
return array_merge( $words, $new_words );
});
Here’s how you can add a filter/hook to your WordPress site: https://rankmath.com/kb/wordpress-hooks-actions-filters/
Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
