Quick Note: This Rank Math Elementor SEO Case Study is optimized with Rank Math’s Content AI 😉
If you’ve ever built a beautiful Elementor page and still watched it sink somewhere on page 2 of Google…
you’re not alone.
I’ve been there.
But today, I want to share how I turned things around using the Rank Math SEO Plugin – the exact tool that helped me rank some of my competitive blog posts built in Elementor.
No fluff, no theory; just real results and repeatable steps.
Let’s dive into my personal SEO story & I’ll also break down the exact steps I take to optimize every Elementor page using Rank Math PRO features (so you can replicate the process).
Here's a quick TOC for navigation…
The Pages That Are Now Ranking (And Why It Matters)
Let’s begin with some real data.
Here are three posts I created using Elementor and optimized using Rank Math:
- PX to CM Converter — Currently ranking #6 on Google for “px to cm converter.” Previously stuck on page 2 in a very competitive keyword space.
- PX to Inches Converter — Currently ranking in the top 10, gaining steady impressions for related long-tail keywords.
- The Plus Addons Discount Code — Holding position #2 and now featured in Google’s AI Overview, driving consistent, high-quality traffic.
Each of these pages serves a different purpose (tool, calculator, discount page), but they all share one thing in common: they’re fully optimized using Rank Math’s built-in features.
And it works.
Here's a quick preview…
My Performance Stack: Rank Math + Elementor SEO
My setup is intentionally lightweight.
I use the Kadence theme, design in Elementor Pro, and rely solely on Rank Math PRO for all SEO efforts.
Once Rank Math is installed, the Setup Wizard configures everything from meta data and XML sitemaps to schema defaults and Search Console integration.
But the real strength of Rank Math lies in its modular approach.
You can enable exactly what you need (nothing more, nothing less)
For all the pages mentioned above, I used the following Rank Math modules:
- SEO Analysis
- Schema Markup
- Content AI
- Instant Indexing
This modular approach is what makes Rank Math both powerful and beginner-friendly. You’re not overwhelmed, but you have depth when you need it.
On-Page SEO with Elementor + Rank Math
One of the key advantages of using Rank Math with Elementor is how seamlessly the SEO interface integrates into the builder. I don’t have to switch tabs or jump between backend and frontend views to optimize.
Inside the Elementor editor, I set my focus keyword, review the SEO score, and make real-time updates to:
- Meta titles and descriptions
- URL slugs
- Image alt tags
- Content structure (headers, paragraphs, lists)
For the “px to cm converter” page, I used this process to achieve an optimal SEO score before publishing.
Please Note: I don't obsess over scores (90+), the content just needs to be on-point & should fulfil user intent & the basic on-page SEO is good to go.
Rank Math's analysis helped me adjust the first paragraph for better keyword relevance, add internal links to related articles, and rephrase subheadings for clarity and impact.
Using Schema Without Touching Code
Although I didn’t manually configure the schema on all my pages, Rank Math’s default schema automation ensured that the content was still eligible for enhanced SERP features.
For example:
- The calculator pages automatically picked up WebPage schema, giving Google clear context.
- The discount code page used Product Schema, which was auto-filled with brand name, pricing, and offer details (which you can manually set)
If you’re a marketer or blogger (like me) who wants more control, Rank Math’s Custom Schema Builder is incredibly intuitive.
You can visually construct FAQ, HowTo, Recipe, Product, or Event schema, and apply it to specific pages using conditions.
Schema has become more important than ever in the age of AI Overviews. Google’s new generative answers often pull content that is well-structured and semantically understood.
Rank Math helps you align with this direction.
Optimizing Content with Content AI
One of the most underrated parts of Rank Math PRO is its Content AI feature that comes with 40+ AI Tools.
This tool analyzes your focus keyword and gives you a detailed breakdown of what your content needs to rank better.
For each of the three pages, I ran Content AI & Rank Math's suggestions on:
- How many times to use the keyword and related terms
- How many external links, images, and questions to include
- What secondary keywords could support the main topic
This helped especially with the “px to inches converter” post.
By adjusting the body content and FAQs, I was able to match user search intent more closely & get more visibility in the SERPs.
Unlike other “content grading” tools, Content AI is lightweight, context-aware, and integrates directly into WordPress. You never leave your dashboard.

Getting Indexed Faster with Instant Indexing
SEO isn’t just about optimization, it’s also about speed.
With Rank Math’s Instant Indexing feature, I was able to push all new content to Google within minutes of publishing.
This is especially powerful for:
- Time-sensitive content (e.g. discounts, announcements)
- Low-volume long-tail keywords
- New websites or blogs with less authority
I used Instant Indexing immediately after publishing the PX to CM Converter post. Within 48 hours, it was not only indexed but started gaining impressions, eventually climbing to position 6.
Waiting days or weeks for Google to crawl your page is a thing of the past (Seriously).
Real Ranking Results After Using Rank Math
Let’s put some numbers to the process:
PX to CM Converter
- Target keyword: px to cm converter
- Before Rank Math: Page 2 (~#15)
- After Optimization: Page 1, Position #6
- Type: Tool Page (built in Elementor)
The Plus Addons Discount Code
- Target keyword: the plus addons discount code
- Ranking: #2 on Google
- Featured in: Google’s AI Overview (screenshot attached)
PX to Inches Converter
- Target keyword: px to inches converter
- Ranking: Top 10
- Ranking for long-tails: “pixel to inch calculator,” “px inch tool”
This isn’t hypothetical SEO advice. It’s practical, tool-backed progress.
The Bigger Picture: How Rank Math Supports Elementor SEO
If you’re reading this, you’re probably already building pages with Elementor.
You’ve got design flexibility, dynamic content widgets, and visual control.
But SEO is where many creators drop the ball.
Rank Math fills that gap.
It transforms on-page SEO from something technical into something systematic and repeatable. You don’t need to learn how to write schema code or analyze logs, you just follow the cues, watch your SEO score climb, and let Content AI do the heavy lifting.
For a deeper breakdown of Elementor SEO best practices, I’ve previously published a guide here:

whereas this guide focuses entirely on execution with Rank Math.
Real Quick: Why I Chose Rank Math Over Other SEO Plugins
I’ve used Yoast, All in One SEO, and SEOPress in the past. While they all offer the basics, I found Rank Math more aligned with how I work as an Elementor user.
- Yoast is solid but lacks deeper integrations and feels bloated at times.
- SEOPress is fast and flexible but lacks advanced schema and indexing tools.
- Rank Math offers a better UI, faster workflow, and game-changers like Content AI and Instant Indexing.
For someone optimizing dynamic, design-heavy pages, Rank Math gives more control without the friction.
Final Thoughts: Why This Setup Works
In my experience, Rank Math is one of those rare plugins that offers power without complexity. It doesn’t just scan your page for keywords.
It offers insight, automates smart tasks (like indexing and schema), and lets you build SEO momentum – without leaving your WordPress dashboard.
Combined with Elementor, it forms a complete publishing and optimization workflow that’s fast, flexible, and measurable.
You don’t need a big team. You don’t need to chase backlinks.
You need structure, consistency, and the right tools. Rank Math gives you all three.
If you're serious about getting your Elementor pages ranked – whether they’re calculators, blog posts, affiliate offers, or services – there’s no better combo than Rank Math + Elementor.
And as I’ve shown, it’s not just theory. It ranks.
