Yoast SEO premium for Netlify. Does it exist? Is there an Alternative or Workaround? New to Netlify

[Allan]

Hi,

I’m running an art blog on Wordpress. We use Yoast SEO premium and keyword optimization with all our posts

We’re considering building a new site on Netlify however we’re too dependent on Yoast. Is there an option to have Yoast on Netlify with its functions that are included in the WP version.

Thank you,
Allan

Hi, @Allan, this looks like a WordPress plugin.

Running WordPress at Netlify isn’t possible and there is more about why this is so here:

[Support Guide] Can I run a web server, HTTP listener, and/or database at Netlify?

How do I run a server/database at Netlify? We often get questions about how to run a specific backend server or database at Netlify. Examples of these types of questions include: How to I get my node HTTP listener to respond to requests? How do I start Mongo/MySQL/<insert-some-database-here> running on the server? How can I SSH into my website? We are here today to answer these questions - and the answer is: you can’t! What do you mean, I cannot run a server or database at Netlify?! …

Does Yoast offer a version of this which doesn’t have WordPress as a dependency?

If not, this would be a feature request for Yoast asking them to offer a version of their service which works without WordPress.

If there are other questions about this, please let us know.

@Allan Short answer, no. You will have to do SEO optimization in your static-page build process somehow.
