Included in Yoast SEO Premium, Yoast WooCommerce SEO, and Yoast SEO AI+.
Help Google find your stories first
You write timely, authoritative stories, but if Google can’t find or understand them, they’ll get buried. Technical SEO, like metadata, sitemaps, and structured data, is complex and time-consuming.
Yoast News SEO solves this by generating XML News sitemaps to highlight your latest articles, and adding NewsArticle schema so Google indexes your content correctly and efficiently. Now you can focus on journalism, not SEO headaches.
