Rank Math Common Mistakes to Avoid
Mistake #1: Skipping the import from your old plugin
❌ Errado: Deleting Yoast SEO first, then installing Rank Math on a blank slate.
✅ Direita: Keep the old plugin active and import your settings to Rank Math inside the wizard, so titles and redirects survive the switch.
Mistake #2: Chasing a green score on every post
❌ Errado: Editing sentences purely to push the SEO analysis score from 85 to 100.
✅ Direita: Treat the score as a checklist, not a target, and fix only the items that help readers.
Mistake #3: Turning on every module at once
❌ Errado: Enabling all modules on day one and wondering why the admin feels slow.
✅ Direita: Enable what you need now, since the module based system exists so you can leave the rest off.
Rank Math Troubleshooting
Problem: The setup wizard will not finish
Causa: The server is missing PHP 7.2, cURL lib, or working cron jobs.
Consertar: Ask your host to enable them, then reload the wizard from Rank Math → Dashboard.
Problem: Search console shows no data
Causa: The wrong property was picked, or the site was verified under a different Google account.
Consertar: Reconnect under Analytics, choose the domain property, and wait a full day for the first sync.
Problem: The sitemap returns a 404 error
Causa: Permalinks were changed after the sitemap module was switched on.
Consertar: Open Settings → Permalinks and click Save, which rebuilds the rules and clears the 404.
📌 Observação: If none of these fix your issue, contact Rank Math support.
