Migrate from Yoast, Rank Math or All in One SEO
The Ranklance importer is a one-click tool that copies your SEO titles, meta descriptions, Open Graph data and robots directives from Yoast SEO, Rank Math or All in One SEO. Existing Ranklance values are backed up first, so an import can be undone. To keep your current plugin, use AEO-Only Mode instead.
Import your data
- Go to Ranklance → Import.
- Click Detect Installed Plugins, or choose the Source Plugin yourself.
- Click Start Import. The results show total posts, imported and skipped.
- Check a few posts, then deactivate the old plugin.
Changed your mind? Click Undo Import to restore your previous Ranklance values.
Full Mode or AEO-Only Mode
When Ranklance detects another SEO plugin it asks how to proceed, and a Conflicts menu item appears:
| Mode | What happens | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
| Full Mode | Ranklance manages all SEO output and strips duplicate tags from the other plugin | You are switching to Ranklance |
| AEO-Only Mode | Ranklance turns off its meta, schema, sitemap and Open Graph output; only AEO scoring and AI-crawler management run | You want to keep your current SEO plugin |
If more than one other SEO plugin is active, AEO-Only Mode is the safe choice. When you deactivate the other plugin, Ranklance offers to switch you to Full Mode.
