SEOPress vs AIOSEO
Switch to SEOPress for Free Migrate to SEOPress now
Nothing of ours ends up in your source code
View the source of any page running All in One SEO and you’ll find your meta tags wrapped in an HTML comment advertising the plugin and its version. There’s no setting to turn it off. Their XML sitemaps carry a credit line as well.
SEOPress adds nothing. No comment in your <head>. No mention in your sitemaps. No ads, banners or upsell popups in your admin. No account to connect. No data sent back to us, not even anonymised.
And SEOPress PRO is genuinely white label: rename the plugin, swap the logo and the admin-bar icon, point the links at your own agency, on a single site or across a whole multisite network. Your client sees your brand, because they hired you, not us.
We’re a French company, so the GDPR isn’t a feature we bolted on. It’s the law we were built under.
White Label / GDPROur free version isn’t a demo of the paid one
Install All in One SEO Lite and open a category, a tag or a product attribute. The SEO fields are there, blurred out, behind an upgrade overlay. Optimising your taxonomy pages is a paid feature.
SEOPress Free gives you titles and meta descriptions on every post type and every taxonomy.
- Unlimited target keywords in the content analysis
- XML, image and HTML sitemaps
- Open Graph and X Cards
- Google Knowledge Graph
- Canonical URLs
- Meta robots
- Post-level redirects
- Image SEO
- Google Indexing API and IndexNow
- Google Analytics 4 / Matomo / Microsoft Clarity
- A command palette
- And one-click migration from 12 SEO plugins
No blurred fields. No padlocks on things you were already using.
SEOPress Free
Your analytics are included, not a second subscription
All in One SEO doesn’t track anything. To get Google Analytics into WordPress, its admin points you at MonsterInsights, a second plugin, with a second licence to buy and renew. Matomo isn’t supported at all.
SEOPress Free ships Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, Matomo Cloud and On-Premise, and Microsoft Clarity, with a GDPR consent bar, IP anonymisation, role exclusions, download tracking, cross-domain tracking and custom dimensions. SEOPress PRO adds the Google Analytics dashboard inside WordPress and Enhanced Ecommerce for WooCommerce.
If your legal team has ever asked where your visitors’ data physically lives, that Matomo line is the whole answer.
Google AnalyticsUnlimited sites, and the price you pay is the price you renew at
AIOSEO’s largest plan stops at 100 sites, and their pricing page states it plainly: “Special introductory pricing, all renewals are at full price.” The number you see at checkout is not the number you pay next year.
SEOPress PRO is $149 a year for unlimited sites, and it renews at $149. Every year. That’s the entire pricing policy.

Need one site? $49. Five? $59. Same renewal rule.

Your AI key. Your provider. Your data.
AIOSEO’s AI runs through their servers on a credit meter, 10,000 credits on the entry plan, 200,000 on the top one. Your content goes to them to be generated, and when the credits run out, generation stops until you buy more.
SEOPress PRO lets you paste your own key from OpenAI, Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, Mistral AI or DeepSeek. The request goes straight from your site to the provider you picked. No intermediary, no markup, no per-word meter, and you can switch providers whenever the market moves.
Don’t want to manage a key? Buy SEOPress AI credits instead. The point isn’t which one you choose: it’s that you get to choose.
In the editor: an AI Assistant with chat and quick actions, /write for full drafts, and bulk generation of titles, meta descriptions, Open Graph tags, X Cards and image alt text across hundreds of posts at once.
A content analysis that reads the page Google reads
Most SEO plugins analyse what’s in the editor. That works in Gutenberg and falls apart the moment your content lives in Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Oxygen, Breakdance, a shortcode or an ACF field, the plugin sees an empty post and scores it accordingly.
SEOPress requests the rendered page and parses the real DOM, exactly like a crawler. Eighteen checks: headings and heading structure, content depth, readability, internal, outbound and nofollow links, image alt text, canonical, meta robots, social tags, schema and more. Unlimited target keywords, in the free version.
The honest trade-off: we need a saved draft, because we need a page to fetch. In exchange, your score describes what will actually be published, in any builder, in any language.
Same idea for the SEO fields themselves. Our universal metabox appears inside your builder, so you never bounce back to wp-admin to fix a meta description.
Content AnalysisImport from AIOSEO. For free. In seconds.
No need to start over. Our importer reads AIOSEO’s own database tables and options, including the legacy fields from All in One SEO Pack 3:
- Post metadata: titles, meta descriptions, Open Graph and X Card titles, descriptions and images, canonical URLs, meta robots
- Term metadata: categories, tags and custom taxonomies
- Global settings, including AIOSEO Pro and dynamic settings
- Redirects, from an AIOSEO JSON export
Running a mixed portfolio? SEOPress also imports from Yoast, Rank Math, The SEO Framework, Squirrly, SEO Ultimate, WP Meta SEO, Premium SEO Pack, SiteSEO, Slim SEO, SmartCrawl and SureRank, plus any CSV you can produce.
Migrate from All In One SEO (AIOSEO)Built for AI search, the plumbing, not just the file
AIOSEO generates an llms.txt and ships an MCP server. We’re not going to pretend they don’t.
Where SEOPress goes further is everything around that file. One Agent Readiness toggle publishes: Link response headers advertising a Markdown alternate for every post; real Markdown content negotiation, so an agent sending Accept: text/markdown gets clean Markdown instead of your theme; Cloudflare’s Content-Signal directive in robots.txt, so you can say yes to search and no to model training; and four discovery endpoints under /.well-known/ — mcp.json, agent-card.json, agent-skills and api-catalog.
Plus WordPress Abilities API support on WordPress 7+, and multilingual llms.txt.

I switched from RankMath to SEOPress and am loving it so far. It is amazing. The “Pro” version makes it even better, as I can fully utilise its features and SEOPress is lighter compared to my previous SEO Plugin.
The last ±10 years I used Yoast SEO (free version) for all the websites I manage (±200). Yoast is still good, but for now SEOPress is a much better solution:
- More (free) features
- It doesn’t slow down your WP Dashboard
- The Premium version is very affordable (if you need to use it)
Benjamin you did a great job the during last years, keep on the good work!
For years, we believed that Yoast was the premier option for SEO. But also, for years, we suffered with Yoast’s licensing structure, where you couldn’t easily deploy Yoast Premium on Development and Test servers without constantly switching license authorizations – or paying more for the privilege. That difficulty was what prompted us to investigate SEO Press – and we’ve found it has exceeded Yoast’s capabilities by a considerable margin. We’ve also found the SEO Press team to be extremely responsive to our questions throughout the onboarding process. Great plugin – wish we had discovered it years earlier.
I used to use other SEO plugins but the amount of popups and nagging notifications left me wanting more. As an agency, it’s important that we can have a consistent experience for all of our customers. SEO Press makes that easy.
