Sites manager in MyYoast

In MyYoast, you can manage your Yoast products, connect your subscription, and connect sites to your subscriptions. In this article, we’ll explain how to manage your sites and subscriptions in MyYoast.

If you need to download and install the plugin please refer to our MyYoast QuickStart Guide.

Yoast SEO and Yoast SEO Premium contain different code and thus upgrading from the free plugin requires installing Yoast SEO Premium as an addon to the free version. Our installation manual will walk you through the upgrade process.

Add a site in MyYoast and connect a subscription

To add a site in MyYoast and connect your Yoast subscription to it, follow the steps below.

Log in to MyYoast.
If you already placed an order, you use the email address used during checkout (you might need to reset your password first).
Click on ‘Sites’ and then ‘Add site’.
Fill out the URL of your site like the example shows, select the platform your website is running on, and click ‘Add’.
If you are unsure which URL should be added, you can check by going to your site’s backend and checking the Site Address (URL) in Settings -> General.
The site will be added to your sites overview. Click the ‘Manage button’ behind the URL to connect your subscription(s).
Use the toggle(s) to connect your subscription(s).
Switch the toggle to “On” to connect your subscription. If you want to disconnect your subscription, switch the toggle to “Off”. Your settings are saved automatically. If you bought the Plugin subscription, which includes all Premium plugins, you only have to enable the “Plugin subscription” toggle to activate all your Yoast Premium plugins at once.

Switching between sites

If you only have one subscription and want to use it on different sites such as a staging, development or production site, you will need to purchase enough copies of Yoast to cover all the sites or you can switch among them using this guide: Single site subscriptions: Switching from development server to live server
