Yoast: Astroturfing … and perpetual bugfixes

  • Yoast, astroturfing for frenetically positive reviews …

    Anyway, your plugin is currently kind of a requirement for all WordPress sites. That said, it’s disappointing that your code is so consistently buggy, that your code review process is so consistently a failure. Every little (and big) update is about fixing bugs, bugs introduced in previous updates. Bugs, bugs, bugs … and bugfixes … and more bugs.

    FWIW, we paid for a developer license to your Analytics plugin, within weeks of your releasing it. What an absolute mess that was.

  • Yoast released a security fix after he was made aware of this. There is nothing wrong with the plugin. No developer is perfect and will always have new bugs to squash.

    If you think the quality control is bad then create a better SEO plugin yourself.

    “There is nothing wrong with the plugin.”

    And yet they released a bug fix. OK.

    In any case, the “security fix” issue you reference is unrelated to the issue I reported in the first paragraph above.

    Hey snakehead this guy is entitled to point out what’s wrong with the plugin without having to be able to write one himself.
