    Hi,

    I was optimizing my website www.archphot.com SEO with the Yoast Plugin. So, some things should be good, focus keyphrase, SEO title, meta descriptions, alt Tags in the images, etc ...

    But some things (which Google loves) seem not to work inside the lay theme:

    • I have plenty of internal and outbound links in my carousel slide show. Yoast (and Google) seem not to recognize them.
    • I have plenty of images. Yoast/Google seem not to recognize them
    • I have plenty of alt descriptions in my media library but Yoast/Google seem not to recognize them
    • I have short texts in my carousel slide show but Yoast seem not to recognize them
      ...

    So, overall I get pretty bad SEO ratings from Yoast and I suppose Google will think the same.

    Any suggestions how to improve this?

    Thanks
    Peter

        yoast can only read texts of text elements in lay theme.
        google does not index all images of a website in general

          No, this setting is unabled. In the end it doesnt matter so much, if Yoast rates me well but if Google does, right? Thanks for you answers!

            I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.

            info@laytheme.com

            Before you post:
            1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
            2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
            3. Disable all Plugins
            4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

            This often solves issues you might run into

            When you post:
            1. Post a link to where the problem is
            2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
            3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
