Yoast Seo Premium update failed: This is what I did!

I have been using Yoast since 2017. Yoast was my first premium plugin. I wrote about why I bought it in this post. But today I have to write about a problem I was facing.

My premium Yoast SEO plugin is not updating!

Yoast gives regular updates of their plugin. For the last several months, I was unable to update from my WordPress dashboard. In fact, since the version 11 updates came, I was stuck. I searched the net and haunted several forums but didn’t get any great answers.

Why was I worried?

I was busy and kept forgetting. But Yoast sends these newsletters, which help keep you updated. One such email talked about the rich snippet feature of the new Yoast. I was stumped. I was missing out on dangerous SEO magic by missing on updates Plus it was dangerous with all the weird website hacking stuff going on.

Who helped?

Mission: research.

But this time I wrote to Yoast support. They sent me a reply. Some strange unknown bugs were preventing the automatic update, and I will have to update manually. This, in short means  I have to deactivate my installed Yoast premium and upload a new updated Yoast zip file. I was in two minds.

Why was I afraid?

What if the update didn’t happen?What if it made my website go all weird? Did I have the brain wavelength to unscrew a mess like that? I am brave, and I can pray like a professional prayer person. All the time I kept postponing the updating, I was worried. I hated the plugin update needed notification for my Yoast. Not doing anything didn’t give me peace of mind. I decided that if things did g wrong, I could just reinstall the older Yoast version and again contact support. I was brave!

How do I update Yoast premium SEO?

In case I didn’t do something right, I will find out soon enough. But till then I am giving myself a few pats. Being on a blogging journey and learning the tech part is a gift I gave myself Five and a half years ago. This thing with my blog gives me so many challenges. But the good part is its always an experience and I answer to myself. The best part, I am creating something which makes me happy every day.
