Hey!

What Are Your Top 3 Essential WP Plugins?

Currently looking to see if I'm missing anything

My Top 3:
- Rank Math Pro
- Site Kit by Google (just makes everything easier)
- Application Passwords

As you can probably see from this list, I am a WP noob, and I am probably missing out on something

 

[xReminisce]

Well, i can't say 3 but here 4 since they are the main pillars on majority of my WP sites

WordFence
LiteSpeed Cache or WPRocket (some of mine has LSC other has rocket)
UpdraftPlus - Backup/Restore
The SEO Framework

This is my setup too except, I use rocket. I tried rank math and ima be honest, I hated it. I started swapping all my sites to SEO framework (what a fucking chore btw).

I can assure you that Chore was worth it for now anyways
interesting to see where they head off to, sadly not all plugins stays amazing.

I have not tested math enough to give you a detailed proper answer, in the past, my go-to was Yoast
@leechesBleechin could give you a better answer in why he dislikes it
But what i can say is, all the "features" they provide is a turn off. You don't need all of that.
Unused features are excess baggage at the end of the day.

The interface is crap and it's just too much. I don't need 99% of the features that are offered, all it does is bog shit down and make the interface terrible.

do they have importer? rank math to seo framework?

Yeah, they use a 3rd party. I don't think its compatible with rank math yet though. I just yanked the damn thing out and patched everything up the best I could, so far so good
