Doing SEO well often means knowing what to focus on and when to do so. That is not always easy, especially when you are juggling content, updates, and day-to-day site management. That is why we are introducing a new SEO task list in the Yoast plugin.
The Task List helps you improve your SEO step by step, directly inside your dashboard. It turns best practices into clear, actionable tasks, so you can make progress with confidence and without second-guessing your work.
Why the SEO checklist matters:
Turn SEO advice into clear actions
Instead of vague recommendations or long documentation, the Task List shows you exactly what to do next. Each item focuses on a crucial SEO fundamental, helping you take meaningful action rather than getting lost in details that don’t move the needle.
This makes SEO more approachable, especially if you are not an expert. You do not need to keep up with every update or technique. The Task List guides you through what matters most.
Build better SEO habits over time
The Task List is not just about finishing tasks. By following it regularly, you start to recognize patterns and best practices that lead to stronger content and a healthier site. Over time, this helps you build better SEO habits that carry over into everything you publish.
For teams, the Task List also brings consistency. It helps everyone follow the same SEO standards, regardless of skill level or experience.
SEO guidance where you already work
Because the Task List lives inside Yoast SEO, you can improve your SEO without switching tools or breaking your workflow. It supports you where the work happens, making SEO a natural part of creating and maintaining your content.
The foundational version of the SEO Task List is available in Yoast SEO, and a more comprehensive list is available for Yoast SEO Premium users.
