Keyphrase in Introduction

    Hello I have a question, can it be that Yoast cannot analyze the keyphrase correctly?
    My keyphrase is in the title, and in the 2 paragraphs at the beginning of the page.
    In the first paragraph my first word is the keyphrase and later in the same paragraph it appears again. It occurs only once in the second paragraph.
    But still Yoast SEO says i don’t have a keyphrase in my introduction, what should I do?
    And does it make a difference if I write the keyphrase like this or like this:
    keyphrase — Keyphrase
    Does uppercase make a difference?
    Thanks for writing back.

    There are some special cases where our plugin isn’t able to detect the focus keyphrase in the first paragraph. Usually, when the first paragraph is not the first element in your article (i.e. there is an image before the first paragraph). Please, refer to this help article for more information:?Warning: Focus keyphrase, not in the first paragraph.

    However, this doesn’t mean that Google and other search engines won’t be able to see it, so if your first paragraph does contain your focus keyphrase, you can safely ignore this warning.

    @felix0908 In regards to the warning “Your keyphrase or its synonyms do not appear in the introduction”, in some cases, HTML code for images, styles, iframe, and videos may interfere with our page analysis’ ability to identify the first paragraph or introduction.

    Usually, when the first paragraph is not the first element in your article (i.e. there is an image before the first paragraph). However, this doesn’t mean that Google and other search engines won’t be able to see it, so if your first paragraph does contain your focus keyphrase, you can safely ignore this warning.

    ?Another possible cause for the SEO analysis to be unable to recognize the introduction or first paragraph is when you are using a page builder to create content. Can you let us know if you are using a page builder plugin such as Visual Composer, Site Origin, Beaver Builder etc to create your page’s content? The SEO and readability analysis features can sometimes not work correctly if you are using some kind of visual page builder, as they can cause the page’s content to not be accessible to the plugin due to it being created outside the functions of the standard WordPress page editor.

    We also have additional information about this issue at the following link: https://yoast.com/focus-keyphrase-in-introduction/

    If you are receiving this warning and you have confirmed that the focus keyword is in the first paragraph, you can ignore this warning, or alternately rearrange your content to begin with a paragraph.

    Thanks for writing back,
    I use the elementor page builder.
    And I will ignore this warning, because the keyphare is in the first paragraph.
    And does Yoast SEO make a difference between upper and lower case?
    Like this Keyphrase — keyphrase. Or will it recognize the keyphrase in both cases?
    Thanks
