Verify Rank Math Score Above 70 on Every Page

Task Library

Runs the RankMath on-page audit across all posts and pages to confirm every one scores 70/100 or higher, the site's minimum on-page SEO bar.

Category: Website QA Audit

Use this when running Layer 2 (Content Architecture Checks) of the Website QA Audit – the RankMath score is the single-number on-page health check for every URL.

Inputs

  • WordPress admin access with the RankMath plugin active
  • A focus keyword assigned per post/page (the score is meaningless without one)
  • The audit report/spreadsheet for logging results

Steps

  1. In WordPress → Posts (and Pages), enable the RankMath SEO Details/score column so every item's score shows in the list view.
  2. Sort or filter by score and list every post or page scoring below 70 – including those showing no score because no focus keyword is set.
  3. For each failing page, open the RankMath sidebar and record which tests fail (keyword not in title, no internal links, short content, missing alt keyword, etc.).
  4. Confirm no page is gaming the score with a keyword nobody searches – the focus keyword must match real search intent for the page.
  5. Hand the per-page failed-test list to the content fixer (or fix inline if scoped), then re-check scores.
  6. Log the score distribution and the below-70 list in the audit report.

Definition of done (QA checklist)

  • Every published post and page scores 70/100 or higher in RankMath with a real focus keyword set
  • Each previously failing page has its failed tests documented and resolved
  • Score table logged in the audit report, linked back to /website-qa-audit

Example(s)

  • Example needed – run the Meta-Article Prompt after first real run.
