Caused huge trouble on SEO

  • Pros: Elegant design with many options. Lots of features.

    Cons: Added huge chunk of CSS codes on each webpage. For example, a page of about less than 100kB size is increased to more than 200kB after installing the plugin. Got punished by some search engines and the website ranking dropped from first page to nowhere to be found.

    Advice: Please keep the code concise. The large overhead of CSS codes added to each web page is a huge issue. Had to uninstall for SEO purpose.

  • Did the plugin add more than 100kb to all pages? Even within pages that didn’t use BetterDocs? =O

    This is a serious problem. Developers need to read and respond to this.

    @kozmonauta Yes Betterdocs plugin added massive CSS codes for each webpage, and each post, even if they are totally not related. This affects website’s performance (load speed) and SEO.

    @paulamit Thank you very much for the quick response. Unfortunately, I can’t afford losing SEO for a long period of time, and have to switch to a lightweight Docs plugin. But I will check out Betterdocs after this issue is addressed. Your customer service is amazing.
