Plug & Play with many Hooks & Filters

Review Made on 28 Dec 2021

+Plug & Play
Activate and the meta title and descriptions are automatically added:
*Meta Title will be taken from Post Title automatically
*Meta Description will be taken from Excerpt automatically
*OG Image will be taken from Featured Image automatically
Sitemap is automatically generated as well, no need to do anything
Image link previews for Facebook, Twitter and Rich snippets all passed test after activation
^The above works out of the box with Custom Post Types ??
+Feature-rich breadcrumb shortcode (Lets you output any taxonomy you want)
+Disable features if not needed with action hooks
+Filters to modify OGP meta and schema
+Comfortable and familiar to use if you have used Metabox.io before (hooks & filters)
+SlimSEO v3.1.1 downloaded zip filesize is 90kb and has minimal memory usage

-No Quick Edit for Meta Title, Description and Images
-Automatic Meta Title and Description do not show in Admin Columns (visual only)
-Was hoping the meta descriptions loaded nearer to the opening head tag (not a big issue)
-Normal users might feel reluctant to switch due to “lack of features”. Other users might also feel overwhelmed as they are not familiar with hook & filters to add/edit schemas and meta tags without an interface/builder.

Conclusion
Fast, lightweight and gets the job done.

SlimSEO is sufficient as a SEO Plugin versus its competitors if you like to do SEO analysis outside of SEO plugins. If you’re familiar with hooks & filters, do try this plugin out.
