Hello Ramanan!
We understand you found the notifications not useful. Just to verify, are you referring to the notifications under SEO > General or the notification badge in the WordPress top toolbar?
We believe that all of the notifications you receive, whether it’s about a new plugin update or release, or if there’s something on your website that needs your attention, are important and would add value so you can continue to optimize your website. Of course, you can always click on the ‘eye’ icon in the WordPress dashboard to hide the notification.
You can, however, disable the notifications from the Yoast SEO plugin from the admin bar. To learn more about how to do that, please refer here.

That shows how to remove Yoast SEO from the admin bar.
Any way to just disable notifications?
@superpoincare Thanks for your reply. In regards to your question, no, there isn’t a way to completely disable notifications from the Yoast SEO plugin.
However, the reason the previous support technician mentioned that, is the Yoast SEO area of the admin bar is where the indicator for notifications appears from within the WordPress admin overview.
We are going ahead and marking this issue as resolved due to inactivity. If you require any further assistance please create a new issue.

Update the software to the latest version? A new WordPress release is coming? Another business proposal from the web studio? If you ignore notifications, they tend to accumulate. The next thing you know is that the dashboard is not a cozy workplace anymore. Instead, it looks like a messy closet where you can barely find what’s really needed. We all know that most of the notifications are ads sent by developers offering you one more great opportunity, last chance, super
discount on premium access, etc. Of course, you can disable notifications in the WordPress dashboard manually. But soon enough they will pop up again and go back into ruining your admin bar coziness. Table of Contents

How to Get Rid of Annoying Notifications
To disable notifications in the WordPress dashboard, we recommend you to install Disable admin notices individually. This free plugin disables all promo- and updates-related notifications. So you could stay focused on your primary tasks.
This plugin offers you several options. You can either disable all notifications, hide only a few of them or don’t hide notifications at all. Let’s start with hiding all notifications.
Open the plugin settings and look for the Hide section. There you can find a button named All notifications. However, the Webcraftic team doesn’t recommend to disable all notifications. This way you can miss important updates from WordPress. And missing this kind of updates can cause you big problems with plugins and website performance. Trust us, this is not something you would want!
If you want to monitor all updates and warning notifications, then use the Enable notifications in the admin bar option. All unread notifications go to the Notifications tab at the top of the page.
Once you open and read all the necessary notifications or simply don’t find a relevant one, press Reset hidden notifications.
Disable Selected Notifications
If you want to disable notifications in the WordPress dashboard, check the great feature that hides certain notifications. Go to the Hide section of the plugin settings and press Only selected to activate the feature.
Now you won’t waste time on junk messages without the risk of missing important updates.
NOTE: The options have a green “?” symbol. It means that they won’t damage the website.
Don’t Hide Notifications
If you’ve decided to keep all notifications, press Don’t hide.
Make sure to Save settings.
Conclusion
Disable admin notices individually is a great solution for both webmasters and bloggers who use dozens of WordPress plugins daily or have more than one website to support. It is better to protect yourself from useless notifications rather than to hide them manually.
