  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

    I’m not quite sure whether I fully understand your concern. But I’ll do my best, and please let me know if I misunderstood.

    I’m assuming you’re using a group of words/phrases on your keywords. Here’s a link on how to pass Rank Math’s Analysis test on your site:

    To pass some tests about keywords, the primary focus keyword you have set should have the exact match on the words you have set in your title/content/description.

    I hope that helps.

    Thank you, and please don’t hesitate to contact us anytime if you need further assistance with anything else.

    Thank you, but that was not my question. My language is german. We have words like Donaudampfschifffahrtskapitänsmütze. I have to use a soft hyphen (­) because the word is too long for mobile use. It should not have a hyphen on desktop. If a soft hyphen is in the keyword, rank math does not recognize the keyword. Is that a bug or a feature?
    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Thank you for getting back to us.

    Usually, Rank Math takes the exact match of the keyword while checking for keyword analysis on the content of your page. Therefore that is not a bug as for your case you are inserting a hyphen within the keyword or probably the title.

    I have tested the keyword and it is being recognized within the SEO snippet section. See screenshot: https://i.rankmath.com/6TZAM2

    The word is quite long when used with other words but can still fit on mobile depending on the display as well without other words.

    You could share a screenshot from your end of how you have implemented it on your post/page to further get a glimpse of this.

    Hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you more.
