This tutorial is broken into two parts. First we'll install and configure the Yoast SEO plugin using the on-boarding wizard. Then we'll optimize a blog post using the new 2018 on-page SEO optimization checkilst.
SEO Yoast has had many names over the years, but it has almost always been the 'go-to' plugin for WordPress SEO. There is a free version and a premium version as well as some nice add-ons like video SEO.
Some of the great features of the free version have been moved into the paid version, but the free version is still powerful.
But, first we need to install the plugin.
To install this plugin please log into your WordPress dashboard, hover over Plugins and then click on Add New.
On the next page type "SEO Yoast" into the search bar. The plugin we want should be the first one in the top left.
Click on the Install Now button and then click Activate after it's installed.
A new menu item called SEO has been added to the bottom of the left-hand menu in your WordPress admin. There's also a new link in the admin header bar called SEO.
If it's your first time installing the plugin you'll be taken right to the on-boarding wizard where you set some common settings.
