Hi Sybre,

thanks for your reply. Don’t worry, I totally understand. I 100% agree that you should be paid for your work. I will indeed support you when my situation allows.

Again, love your plugin. Keep up the good work! Hopefully I can still count on you should I have any questions about your plugin.

Thanks again and best of luck.

Great answer! You really know how to make a client 😉 I would like to go a bit more in depth on certain parts if you don’t mind.

I am unaware of any issues with Elementor and TSF. In fact, I maintain a client’s site that actively uses Elementor Pro–so I should be the first to know 🙂

Are you able to rank your client’s site using Elementor? Any advice or tip that one should use with setup?

One feature you will miss out on with page builders and TSF is the generation of the description. This omission is because we can’t be sure our description generator yields confidential information, and the content of that can be stored via object caching–the output of which I consider being a security risk. Better safe than sorry!

I understand. But what precisely is this description that the generator should be normally creating? Is it something that can also be eventually created by hand achieving the same result? Does this thing heavily affect ranking?

It is true, however, that Elementor’s output isn’t on par with WordPress native HTML generation via TinyMCE (Classic) or Blocks (Gutenberg). The only issue you should be worried about in this is performance.

I am absolutely planning to do page caching, so performance wise there should not be issues, or at least they should be mitigated. I am more worried about what Google “sees” of a page created with Elementor. See, I’m planning to write a lot of high quality content but I also want the freedom that Elementor gives you, with all additional elements you can fit in all sort of creative ways. WordPress posts are a bit more standard and more text/content “focused” I’d say…? So I am worried that Google’s crawler, despite the presence of high quality text content, will see a “scrambled” version of that article if I use Elementor instead of Gutenberg/Classic editor.

SEO will be very important for this project I am carrying on, so I want to make the best possible choices in order to help that aspect of the site.

Thanks a lot!

It is solved for now.

I guess it was something on the hosting side and looks like they solved it. Still have to get their reply though.

I also hope this helps someone in my situation. If I have updates I’ll try to post them.

Thanks everyone!
