Overview​

This section documents the default Rank Math SEO configuration used in MAC Starter.

The goal is to keep the setup predictable:

  • enable the modules that are actually used in production
  • keep indexing and sitemap behavior explicit
  • keep schema defaults aligned with the site structure
  • restrict advanced permissions to administrators only

Covered Areas​

Default Approach​

  • Use the advanced setup instead of the simplified setup wizard path.
  • Enable only the Rank Math modules that are required for the project.
  • Keep placeholder values such as <my_site_name> and <my_site_url> project-specific until the site is being configured.
  • Leave optional social, analytics, and local-business fields empty unless the project actually needs them.
  • Keep operational modules such as 404 Monitor, Analytics, Instant Indexing, LLMS Txt, Local SEO, Redirections, and SEO Analyzer enabled only after launch where noted in Dashboard.
  • Keep all Role Manager permissions set to false for non-administrator roles, as documented in Role Manager.

Notes​

  • This doc tree is for the MAC Starter baseline, not for every possible Rank Math feature.
  • If a project needs WooCommerce, News Sitemap, Video Sitemap, or other optional modules, document that variance in the project-specific docs instead of silently changing the starter defaults.
  • When placeholders are replaced for a real site, keep the setting labels and structure intact so the docs still mirror the plugin UI cleanly.
