Classic editor and Gutenberg SEO

Hi @shaboneh,

That’s a tricky one to answer without being an SEO ‘expert’. At a really broad, top, level – Google should be able to parse and crawl the content of your page relatively similarly whether the content is created in Gutenberg/Block Editor or the Classic Editor.

There may be some nuance based on the structure of the content – but it would be subtle – and less impactful than other factors like the actual content, headings on the page etc.

You say that there is no difference between them?

Hey @shaboneh – as I’m not an SEO expert – I can’t say that for sure. But my expectation is there would be minimal difference.

I′m no expert, but since somehow converting a post made in classic editor to blocks turns the content into a chunk of text without headings, the switching from classic to gutenberg is bad.

Since this “Gutenberg improvement” I have no choice but to rewrite each post of my blog form scratch in Gutenberg, which is ridiculous. It has a function to “convert to blocks”, totally unusable since it can′t understand that different paragraphs and titles should be converted into different blocks, and even different TYPES of block, I mean, chunk of text = paragraph. Title = heading.

Gutenberg merges it all making content unreadable.
