Hello,
I don't know that much about SEO, but I am familiar with Rank Math and Yoast SEO plugin of WordPress.
So, suggest me one of the best addons for Xenforo based on my experience.
Thanks.

Most forum CMS are pretty terrible SEO wise. They are super fast and efficient when talking about forums, and they feel confortable to be use, like this Xenforo in Babiato. But for SEO purposes they are simply terrible (this is why for my little forums I always choose bbPress straight away, although it is not as powerful as Xenforo).

If you want a forum for SEO, move away from any forum CMS naming Xenforo, phpBB, SMF, vBulletin or IPS.

Still, if you want to do something SEO wise. Ozzmodz could be a thing that solves like 30% of the whole issue, but still s***t compared to what you could be doing with bbPress.

Conclusion: If you care about SEO and Xenforo, try to implement what you need manually. Xenforo by itself has some elements integrated by default, but pick a good SEO analyzer like Sitebulb and solve the issues integrating many mini-resources for each single aspect it fails.

Also beware of WPO issues, that you may find some (like Lazyloading and script deferring)

Thanks for the brief description.
I don't care about much SEO as my forum is for educational purposes only so there will be no AdSense or promotional things.

I created an educational forum based on SMF from 2010 and also though like you years ago. But recently I wasn't into it anymore and I decided to set AdSense to get some extra earning on such

Got to say, that SEO wise, it was completely underperforming and considering the huge amount of time I had to put on it, I moved into bbPress, like 10 years after creation, and was a complete disaster. Now it is starting to recover, but I hope I did it in bbPress from the first place and it could have been booming with Adsense nowadays (probably around $200/month approximately I have estimated given the loss of visits and the RPM of the forum)

There is border between me and Adsense.
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience, brother.
