Yoast – SEO for everyone

Yoast – SEO for everyone

Yoast helps you to get the most out of your website by making SEO available for everyone. You might know our Yoast SEO plugin; with over 7.8 million active installs, Yoast SEO is one of the most popular WordPress plugins worldwide.

At Yoast, we believe in holistic SEO: not just one aspect of a website, but all aspects are important and should, therefore, be as good as possible. We don’t approach SEO as a trick to rank higher in Google but stimulate site owners to make their site the best search result. All awesome websites have three things in common: they’re easy to use, contain the right information, and they’re fast and reliable. If you do all that right, a website becomes easier to find as well!

Our products help people create remarkable sites. We offer WordPress plugins that make optimizing your WordPress website as easy as pie. In addition to that, our online courses help you develop the skills to make your website easier to find. And it doesn’t stop there: we’ve partnered with Magento and TYPO3 experts and brought Yoast SEO to other platforms too, as we love to contribute to open source projects. All that ties up nicely with our ultimate goal: trying to make the web better for everyone.
