All in One SEO Pack for WooCommerce themes

  1. Main features
All in One SEO pack has been around for a long time, and this is one of the most famous and popular WordPress plugins. In the All in One SEO Pack fewer features than Yoast SEO plugin, but it does not mean that the All in One SEO Pack less powerful. As I said once, the right plug-in - this is the plugin that meets your needs. After installing the All in One SEO Pack for WooCommerce themes the first thing you see - it's an ugly red alert that asks you to include plug-in plug-ins in the Console section. We wish that the authors of the plugins made the warning at least a little less ugly. Administrator page contains affiliate links to some well-known developers of themes and plugins for WordPress. Skip commercials, you will see the options. If you want to get rid of advertising, you can subscribe to the paid version of the plugin.

  1. Conclusion
There is no doubt that the ALL in One SEO does not give much room as Yoast. But it provides some powerful features. In particular, we like the simplicity of the settings. Less options to select means that I do not have to spend a lot of time setting up the plugin. Plugin All in One SEO for a WooCommerce theme works in most cases immediately. Once you have it turned on, it automatically tightens the description and keywords tags and content of your posts. You can customize them yourself, but if you have about 1,000 or more posts, imagine how much time you'll need a good setting for each post. At the All in One SEO also can be integrated Google Analytics. This means that you can enter your Google analytics ID in the admin section, and the code will track your visitors.
What plugin – Yoast SEO or All in One SEO Pack – is the best choice for WooCommerce themes?
We think most users of our WooCommerce themes would give a clear victory to Yoast and maybe they're right. But the fact that All in One SEO Pack is also a good plugin since it does all the things that are required from the SEO plugin. Breadcrumbs can be created in WordPress themes, keyword analysis can be done with the help of plugins and browser extensions, plug-ins are excellent for site maps, and why anyone would edit the robots.txt and .htaccess files via WordPress console? We mean that if a user understands and can edit the contents of these files, it is likely he has a fairly advanced skills and can do it manually.
4 In our humble opinion, All in One SEO lacks no features, and ease of use, support, user-friendliness and design. Yoast wins because it has an additional layer of convenience, which is not enough for All in One SEO. Tour Features, page analysis tools, snippets generator - all this makes us recognize the winner. If you have any questions left about these two SEO plugins for WordPress themes, then leave your request or visit the forum to discuss your questions.
