Since 2008, we have been improving our SEO expertise for all types of websites: B2C or B2B, for small websites or large international corporations. When it comes to WordPress, we made a straightforward observation: current SEO plugins are too complex, they don’t guide users in their next actions, and the have a number of technical SEO weaknesses.

Our SEO plugin contains everything you need to manage your SEO: meta tags, redirects, alt editor, and much more. With the SEOKEY PRO plugin, go even further with an enhanced audit, Google bot monitoring, and Search Console connection.

SEOKEY is the all-in-one plugin to rank higher in search engine, audit your content, and determine the NEXT action you should take.

Why SEOKEY is different?

• A complete SEO toolbox (redirections, image ALT editor, etc.)

WordPress SEO audit

Global SEO audit for WordPress

There is no point in getting tips on a single content if you don’t have the whole picture. With SEOKEY, you can audit all your content in one go to improve your visibility in Google and other Search Engines!

You can then easily consult all your SEO issues, or see at a glance which content is causing the most problems.

Advice with real SEO data in SEOKEY PRO

With PRO version, we go even further with a more detailed analysis of 100% of your content: we give you a main directive based on real traffic data: optimize, change the keyword to target, do nothing, wait, etc.

SEOKEY PRO is the only SEO plugin providing a global SEO audit based on real trafic data!

Individual SEO audit an content analysis for each content

When you edit a specific content in WordPress, we also provide you with a full SEO content analysis.

With PRO version, we also display your SEO data for each content: clics, impressions, visible keywords count

Automatic SEO technical optimizations

In WordPress, many SEO optimizations should be active by default. This is our belief as SEO experts since 2008. So why would we force you to check and fill in some options when they should always be active?

That’s why SEOKEY automatically deploys SEO improvements without any clicks: we clean your , we disable date archives, we redirect attachment pages, we convert 404 erros on old cache files to 410, and so on.
