SEOKEY: the SEO Plugin That Provides Users With Real SEO advices
We all know major WordPress SEO plugins: Yoast, All In One SEO, and Rankmath. In reality, there are dozens of other tools.
So how do you choose the right plugin that will finally give you real visibility on Google?
SEOKEY is a plugin with a completely different approach: it audits and optimizes your content.
In this article, we will check SEOKEY’s strengths and explain how it differs from existing SEO plugins.
Let’s get started.
TL;DR
- SEOKEY is the only SEO plugin for WordPress that helps you answer an essential question: what is the next SEO action I need to take?

Cons about WP Umbrella

Do You Need an SEO Plugin?
Yes, everyone needs one. Regardless of our activity, we all want visibility in search engines. Unfortunately, WordPress has serious shortcomings in this area as it lacks essential features:
- Management of tags (Title tag, meta description, etc.) and noindex
- Redirect manager
- Crawl and indexing optimization
- And more.
You must install an SEO plugin if you want visibility.
But Do You Know How to Use an SEO Plugin?
That’s the main issue with traditional SEO plugins: they offer a lot of features but they don’t guide the user. Yet, guidance is the key to success.
You need to be able to answer these questions:
- Should I update this content?
- Which posts are the most problematic?
- Do I have content that is too similar to each other?
- What are the next actions to implement?
This is where SEOKEY – with a different approach – comes in!
SEOKEY Features
Global Audit
SEOKEY’s main strength is its global audit module. With a single click, SEOKEY audits 100% of your content (not just your website’s homepage).
Click “Start Audit,” grab a coffee, and SEOKEY takes care of the rest.
The plugin will then display all the issues encountered, such as redirection problems, improper use of targeted keywords, content length issues, poorly chosen keywords, or technical issues with your HTTPS or domain.
The plugin offers a view by issue as well as a view by content. This way, you can focus on URLs with the most issues or on optimizing a specific aspect of your website.
SEO Advice
But an SEO audit is useless if real results are not taken into account. Other plugins still give you advice to apply to content already in Google first position (and risk losing natural ranking).
With SEOKEY PRO, the plugin adapts its main advice based on the content visibility for a specific keyword. The plugin tells you whether to continue optimizations, wait a few days, or choose another keyword to target.
Automatic SEO Optimizations
To improve SEO, you need to focus on the most important actions. SEOKEY provides many automatic SEO optimizations without any necessary action from the user:
- Automatic addition of Schema.org markup (Breadcrumbs, Website, Local Business, Person, etc.)
- Automatic redirects of date archives and attachment pages
- Removal of unnecessary RSS feeds
- Cleaning of unnecessary HTML code in the HTML <head>
- Automatic optimization of XML Sitemap and robots.txt files
- And much more.
But there is huge differences with other plugins :
- No need to dig through dozens of menus to configure each optimization: SEOKEY takes care of everything.
- Some optimizations are unique, such as sending 410 headers on your old cache files that no longer exist, or XML Sitemaps that load 10 to 30 times faster for Google.
You can find these SEO optimizations here.
Basic SEO Features
Of course, SEOKEY manages all the basic SEO features you need, including:
- Title tag
- Meta description tag
- Sitemap files
- Noindex
- Optimization of Canonical tags
XML Sitemaps
SEOKEY also generates XML Sitemap files. These files are useful for search engines to know all your content. But SEOKEY stands out with three powerful elements:
- With the PRO version, they are automatically submitted to Google Search Console for better indexing.
- They are physically created on your server, making them 10 to 30 times faster to display for Google compared to sitemaps from other plugins.
- They automatically include all the information about your images.
In other words, SEOKEY provides powerful Sitemap files for better visibility!
Redirects and 404 Errors
Sooner or later in SEO, we all need to add 301 redirects for content that no longer exists. SEOKEY provides a 301 redirection module to redirect any URL on your site with a single click.
With the PRO version, SEOKEY goes further by displaying all 404 errors detected by Google so you can fix them with a single click.
SEOKEY PRO is also the only plugin that displays automatically triggered redirects by your WordPress site, allowing you to correct them if they are incorrect or validate them for faster execution (Google will thank you).
Intuitive ALT Text Editor
Another very interesting feature is their alternative text editor.
If you forgot to fill all information about your images, you must manually modify each one in the media library and then in your content. It’s finally over: SEOKEY provides a unique menu to quickly edit all your alt texts.
Differences Between Free and Pro Versions
SEOKEY was created by SEO experts with a simple goal: to help you gain visibility.
The free version contains all the necessary features to improve your SEO without missing anything: meta tags, XML Sitemaps, redirects, automatic SEO optimizations. For example, no competing plugin provides 301 redirects in their free version, yet it is an essential feature!
The PRO version goes much further with:
- A much more powerful audit (free version provides a limited audit)
- Connection to Google Search Console to automatically submit your Sitemap files
- More precise personalized advice based on your Search Console data
- Tracking 404 errors and automatic WordPress redirects
- Premium support
SEOKEY Final Thoughts
SEOKEY is an interesting new comer in word of WordPress SEO plugin with a different approach. The focus is based on content-optimization advice based on audits.
All you have to do is apply the advices step by step, and your visibility should increase!
