    Dear Rank Math Support,

    I am working on one of my client’s projects, they want to shift their nutritional food supplement website from Yoast to Rank Math. This website has posts, pages, and specific product categories.

    Can you provide a concise guide on safely migrating? Specifically, steps for deactivation, import/export settings, industry-specific configurations, and post & category page migration tips would be helpful.

    Thanks,
