Don\u2019t be. Your data will remain safe. You can easily migrate it to the new Yoast plugin by following the steps provided by the plugin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So let&#8217;s start. The steps are straightforward:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Take a website backup from <a href=\"https:\/\/phpyouth.com\/blog\/top-6-wordpress-plugins\">ManageWP <\/a>before going to step 2<\/li>\n<li>Install the Yoast SEO plugin and activate it.<\/li>\n<li>Disable the All in One SEO Pack plugin or an existing one<\/li>\n<li>Go to SEO &gt;&gt; Tools &gt;&gt; Import &amp; Export &gt;&gt; Import from other SEO plugins, you\u2019ll see this, ImageSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/yoast.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Yoast SEO<\/a><br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5142\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/phpyouth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/yoast-seo-all-in-one-seo-pack-migration.jpg?resize=662%2C622&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"yoast-seo-all-in-one-seo-pack-migration\" width=\"662\" height=\"622\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/phpyouth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/yoast-seo-all-in-one-seo-pack-migration.jpg?w=662&amp;ssl=1 662w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/phpyouth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/yoast-seo-all-in-one-seo-pack-migration.jpg?resize=300%2C282&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/phpyouth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/yoast-seo-all-in-one-seo-pack-migration.jpg?resize=610%2C573&amp;ssl=1 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 662px) 100vw, 662px\" \/><\/li>\n<li>Select the relevant checkbox.

Yoast SEO plugin now has an onboarding wizard, which will guide you through the setup, asking you questions about your site and basing SEO decisions on that.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Yoast SEO beats All In One SEO Pack<\/h2>\n<p>Features like the snippet preview, SEO, and readability analysis functionality, and included XML sitemaps functionality make the plugin a true all-in-one SEO solution. You can even buy a Yoast SEO Premium subscription for even more awesome functionality, like internal linking suggestions and a fantastic redirect manager. Most importantly, our plugin helps you do better SEO. Good SEO means, in most cases, good content writing. Our plugin aims to support you with that as best as possible.<\/p>\n<h2>Are you using Google XML Sitemaps?<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re using Google XML sitemaps or another XML sitemaps plugin, you can just disable that and enable the XML sitemaps feature in Yoast SEO[ SEO &gt;&gt; General &gt;&gt; Feature]. The location changes with that. Google XML Sitemaps uses example.com\/sitemap.xml, which is a static file; you can safely remove that. The new XML sitemap will be at example.com\/sitemap_index.xml.<br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5143\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/phpyouth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Yoast-sitemap-xml.png?resize=635%2C645&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Yoast-sitemap-xml\" width=\"635\" height=\"645\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/phpyouth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Yoast-sitemap-xml.png?w=635&amp;ssl=1 635w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/phpyouth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Yoast-sitemap-xml.png?resize=295%2C300&amp;ssl=1 295w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/phpyouth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Yoast-sitemap-xml.png?resize=610%2C620&amp;ssl=1 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 635px) 100vw, 635px\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Friends, if your migration successfully completed then please share your feedback in below comment box and share post to need one.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostg.xyz\/aff_c?offer_id=6&amp;aff_id=115521&amp;url_id=35&amp;file_id=1399\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/media.go2speed.org\/brand\/files\/hostinger\/6\/EN-970x250.jpg?resize=970%2C250&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"970\" height=\"250\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\"><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostg.xyz\/aff_i?offer_id=6&amp;file_id=1399&amp;aff_id=115521&amp;url_id=35\" width=\"0\" height=\"0\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello friends, we all know that Yoast is the best plugin in the SEO category.
