Top News Websites Using Yoast SEO

Yoast SEO is the most widely installed SEO plugin for WordPress. It manages titles, meta descriptions, sitemaps, and on-page checks, and is a near-default on content-focused WordPress sites. Its output is detectable from the meta tags and comments it adds.

Site Stats Database tracks 14,282 websites that are both Yoast SEO and News, each enriched with traffic, authority, and the full detected tech stack.

They tend to have roughly average authority: their median Ahrefs Domain Rating is 29, about the same as the 28 median across all sites Site Stats Database tracks.

Traffic estimates, keywords, and authority come from DataForSEO; Domain Rating comes from Ahrefs' public endpoint; and the topic, market, and technology detections come from Site Stats Database's own crawler.
