“I have used Yoast SEO plugin for my Wordpress blog website and it has been very useful.”
SG

Swagat G.

Founder and CEO

Cons

“This costed webmasters agency business because some agencies had a process where they evaluated traffic based on Ahrefs and would not accept any alternative way. And now in 2025 they no longer track any positions that rank at over 10th place in Google, because the forced pagination in Google API would make their costs also prohibitive.”
JM

Jana M.

Consultant

“The pricing model is not great on value of money to a mid sized retail team, and customer service takes too much time to answer an important security question about user access.”
AH

Amir H.

E-Commerce Manager

“Some reports are powerful but not explained clearly, which can slow down work for new users.”

Cons

“Can be too picky, doesn’t always match real results, nags you a lot, premium features pushed too hard”
KS

Kyshira S.

Digital Content Creator

“My only concern is its high premium price. When I write 10000 words article, number of focus keywords can go up to 15 to 18 which can be over optimized by google algorithm.”

Sole Proprietor

“its almost TOO simplistic for some of the more advanced things I need to do on google but that doesn't make it inconvenient.”
