SEOPress is now my main SEO Tool
I have been using a number of other SEO tools (free and paid) which have worked fine, but I was looking for something that did more with ease of use and really useful tools. After researching and testing, SEOPress is now my main SEO tool that I have moved to on all of the websites we own or manager. If you have used other SEO tools, SEOPress can import your data from them so you do not have to start from fresh. It is sleek, covers all required tools and more, especially if you get the Pro version which I have. The Pro version price is a fraction of the cost of many other SEO tools. It is well worth it as it will save you time working with SEO on your website. AI abilities using your preferred AI tool is simple to set up and is of great help for suggestions or to generate titles and metadata. Social sites are integrated into the tool for SEO as well. It can be a little bit difficult adding integrated tools, such as Google Search Console, but their step-by-step instructions are very helpful. Support is brilliant with a personal touch email replies that specifically cover your questions. I highly recommend this SEO tool over the others, you will be very happy, especially if you get the low cost Pro version.

Our goto SEO Plugin
We use SEOPress Pro on every site now. It's just far superior to Yoast. The AI features in SEOPress Pro are outstanding and are a real time saver on large sites. Would 100% Recommend! Oh and the support is excellent and Rémi spent 11 years at Automattic on the WooCommerce team so he knows his stuff

Very buggy
Seopress pro is a fine plugin. I'm happy with it. Seopress insights though is unusable. Completely buggy. 100% does not work. So 4.5 to 5 out of 5 for Seopress proa STRONG 1 out of 5 for seopress insight. avoid at all costs.

Best SEO plugin for WP, with excellent support
I've used WP SEOPress for many years, and this plugin is hands down the best for SEO optimization. The few times I've needed support, it's been lightning fast and excellent.

Super extension française avec un très bon support
Je laisse très peu d'avis mais le plugin français SEOPress mérite largement ces 5 étoiles. Tout d'abord, c'est un point important, vous n'êtes pas seul ! Le support est à, présent, et il fait de son mieux pour vous aider. Le support de SEOPress est vraiment top (surtout si on le compare à d'autres supports qui ne sont pas formidables). Ensuite SEOPress fait plein de choses en SEO, donc il est inutile d'ajouter (ou d'acheter) d'autres petites extensions. Sa palette est vraiment vaste. Concernant son usage, je le trouve plus facile d'accès qu'un autre très célèbre plugin SEO. J'utilise SEOPress depuis plusieurs années et je renouvelle à chaque fois mon abonnement car cette extension est un très bon investissement pour le SEO quotidien de mes sites internet. Excellent !
