Let’s you set the keyphrase to ‘buy a used snowmobile’ and then begin your post with the sentence ‘There are six things to know when buying a used snowmobile’. Yoast will say Problem: You didn’t use your keyphrase in the first sentence.

Maybe your meta description is “The complete guide to buying a used snowmobile”. Yoast will say Problem: You didn’t use your keyphrase in the meta description.

Maybe you used both “buy” and “buying” throughout your post and in your subheader sections. Yoast will say Problem: Keyphrase density, because it only counts ‘buy’.

And you might suggest, well just make the keyphrase ‘buying a used snowmobile’, but let’s say you do that, except it makes more sense for your post title to be ‘How to Buy a Used Snowmobile’, and in this case, Yoast will say Problem: You didn’t use your keyphrase in the title.

The issue is that it’s very natural to say both buy/buying depending on sentence structure. It would be great if Yoast recognized both as part of the same keyphrase.

Thank you for responding to my post!
