Yoast Video SEO Premium GPL Introduction
Videos have been a great source of traffic in recent years and have improved sales and revenue by 900% in some cases. Now, why only optimize the content of your website? You can even do SEO on your videos and can rank higher in search engines with the help of the Yoast Video SEO plugin.
Requirements for the Video SEO plugin
Do make sure you use oEmbed or a shortcode from one of the supported plugins — see below for the list. Also make sure that you use one of our supported platforms (YouTube, of course, is among them, but we generally advise people to use Wistia or Vimeo).
In order to let your videos rank with our Video SEO plugin, you’ll need our Yoast SEO plugin as well, as the plugin relies on that plugin’s capabilities for XML Sitemaps, Facebook OpenGraph, and more
Technical specifications
The Video SEO plugin supports:
- Automatic XML Video Sitemap generation (adding on to the XML sitemaps generated by Yoast SEO).
