Free vs. Premium vs. AI+: Which Should You Choose?
Yoast SEO offers three tiers — Free, Premium, and the new AI+ plan — each designed for different levels of SEO needs. Free is good for beginners, providing essential tools to get started.

AI+ takes SEO to the next level with intelligent automation and AI-driven insights, including brand perception analysis and smart recommendations to refine your strategy faster and more effectively.

- Yoast SEO Premium expands on the free tools with a range of advanced features. You’ll get internal linking suggestions to strengthen your site structure, a redirect manager to handle broken links, social previews to see how your content will appear on platforms like Facebook and X, and guided content clean‑ups to keep your site fresh. Premium also lets you optimize for multiple keyphrases per page and includes priority support whenever you need help.
- Yoast SEO AI+ is the latest plan designed to take optimization into the era of intelligent automation. It provides AI-powered Brand Insights to help you understand and improve how your brand is perceived online. Yoast AI Brand Insights highlights brand mentions, compares your visibility to competitors, and reveals gaps in coverage, helping you take action to strengthen your presence and stay top-of-mind in AI search results.
