What our users say
I have been using Yoast since the time we started our website. The results were just fantastic! The SEO Analysis of Yoast has really helped me on how I can improve my content. This has helped me improve the traffic on my website by 10 folds, but we started ranking on the 1st page of Google on the majority of our searches. I really thank Yoast SEO for helping me grow my website.

I have been using Yoast for a few years now, with great results and value. Lately, my website has encountered some crazy problems. I requested help from Yoast, and the support team was extremely helpful, very friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable; there is no problem that they cannot get answers and solutions. I found the Yoast support team’s attitude and dedication truly incredible and very rare. This should be the benchmark for this industry and other global organizations.

Let’s have a closer look
Read on to find out exactly how the Video SEO for WordPress plugin can help you to compete, and to learn about all of the additional SEO features we add to your videos!
Help Google uncover your video
Getting great results for your site in the video search results in Google is just as easy. Simply add the video, title, and description and you are good to go! We’ll add the Schema.org structured data videoObject markup.
While Google tries its best to understand videos as they are, adding VideoObject structured data will help them understand your videos. It’s a must if you want the videos to appear in rich results.
Faster loading times
Ensures faster loading times for your pages by utilizing asynchronous JavaScript for video delivery.
Don’t leave your viewers waiting!
Responsive sizing
Make sure that your video fits perfectly on desktops, phones and tablets.
No need to spend hours tinkering with code or browser testing. Delight your users with seamless video whether they’re at home, at work, or on the move – all without lifting a finger.
Video previews
Ensure that video previews appear properly any time someone shares your page on Facebook or Slack, through added OpenGraph tags. These tags tell how to display a video on, for example, a user’s feed.
Custom thumbnails
Includes custom thumbnails for all your video results in search, and a preview of how it will look before publishing.
The thumbnail is the first thing people see, and it’s one of the main parts of what they base their intention to click on. A good thumbnail can make you stand out from your competition!
Automatic XML Video sitemaps
This automatic Video sitemap, adds on to the XML sitemaps generated by Yoast SEO.
The pages that have video content must be reachable by search engines and the same goes for the videos themselves. If you host them on your site, they should be available to the outside world within an XML sitemap.
Platform support
Includes support for many major video platforms, including Youtube, Vimeo, Wistia and VideoPress.
So you can be on the platform that fits you and your website best!
