This plugin has everything you need to build strong site SEO without having TOO many features. While there are a lot of customizatino options, the plugin screens aren’t too overpacked and the plugin seems to be lightweight and doesn’t bog down servers). Minimal setup to get going with Sitemap, Schema, and tags. Jump Links Block in the editor is a time-saving feature.
