Yoast is the most downloaded WordPress plugin. Ever.

(135 million downloads to date.)

But there’s a growing competitor in the space: Rank Math.

Rank Math is still far behind Yoast in terms of total downloads.

But what does the search data tell us?

As you can see, both plugins are seeing search growth.

But searches for “Rank Math” are blowing up. 

That said, “Yoast SEO” gets 3x more absolute monthly searches than “Rank Math”.

But if this trend continues, interest in Rank Math could soon surpass Yoast.
