All in One SEO pack

An overview of the All in One SEO WordPress plugin. The plugin went through a major overhaul in 2021.

I have added articles to show the settings of a few SEO plugins. The Yoast SEO WordPress plugin and The SEO Framework plugin. To give an overview of what features each offer.

There is also an All in One SEO premium plugin which contain these premium features.
– Smart Schema
– Redirection Manager
– News Sitemap
– Image SEO
– Advanced support for e-commerce
– SEO for Categories, Tags and Custom Taxonomies
– REST API support
– Local SEO
– Link Assistant
– Video Sitemap
– Custom Breadcrumb Templates
– User Access Control
– Social meta for Categories, Tags and Custom Taxonomies

Upon activating All in One SEO the first thing we see is a setup wizard which will take you through the following steps:

1. Import data from your current plugins.
2. Which category best describes your website? Adjust the Home Page Title and the Home Page Meta Description.
3. Additional Site Information. Sets up information for Person or Organization. Add Social profiles.
4. Which SEO features do you want to enable? Various features you can enable.
5. Search Appearance. Shows a Google Snippet Preview, choose site under construction or Live Site, etc.
6. Setup Site Analyzer + Smart Recommendations. (Email address field.)
7. Enter you AISEO License Key (check if using Pro version).

Exiting the setup a “How to Get Started” video is seen. Closing that one sees the Dashboard.

I believe as I went through the various settings that suddenly OptinMonster and MonsterInsights was installed and activated on the site. I am not sure how that happened.
