    Rank Math free

    I currently have Yoast installed. I found a guide on how to uninstall it and install RankMath.

    I am doing this because RankMath is faster.

    Will the fact that I had Yoast installed before slow down my site at all?

    Thanks.

    Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing. Uninstalling Yoast and installing Rank Math should not negatively impact your site’s performance. In fact, installing Rank Math can potentially improve your website’s speed.

    Rank Math is designed to be optimized for performance, and it replaces the need for multiple plugins, which can help streamline your site and enhance its speed. Once you uninstall Yoast and any other unnecessary plugins, you may notice an improvement in your site’s performance.

    To give you a clearer picture, we conducted tests comparing a website with and without Rank Math. The results showed that the website performed better with Rank Math installed than without it. Here are some relevant images from our tests:

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting the support and sorry for not following up quickly and any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    No, installing Rank Math will not slow down your website at all.

    When installing Rank Math, the plugin allows you to completely migrate all data from Yoast. You may follow this guide here: https://rankmath.com/kb/yoast-seo-migration/

    Before importing data from Yoast to Rank Math, I suggest you conduct a full backup of your website first.

    If you are still having difficulties setting up your SEO settings for your website, let us know and we will be very happy to assist you further.

    Please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
