they give you a coupon code and they charge you all the amount later. Also, nothing is running better in my shop with this app! NOT recommend!

Absolutely TERRIBLE!! DO NOT USE - You have been warned!
Lets start, once I'd done all the "basic steps" they tell you to they managed to slow my store down! (Opposite of speed it up!) They have lots of advertising and talk themselves up plenty by putting reviews everywhere. (I'm caused to wonder why they got those!) None of the features actually helped my site. I dropped from a 47 score to a 17 score while using these guys.
Someone else mentioned the requests to the site made and I've come across the same issue, they are sending so many requests that it slows everything down.
My advice - If you know what to do, do it yourself, otherwise use a different app!

The following will be my honest experience with the app and my review of the features and benefits provided. I have used this app daily for the past 4 weeks. My understanding was the app would provide SEO optimization and increase the response and speed of my site loading. Throughout my 4 weeks of using this app, and learning the web development aspects as I went, I have come to realize that all of the services and benefits the app proclaims to provide, it does not. Or, if it does, it does not do so to a satisfactory enough level to warrant taking up any space within my website or even the list of apps that my website utilizes. I have found a significantly larger impact on both SEO optimization and speed increase by taking a hands-on approach and learning the intricacies of both categories myself.
Now, I understand that is a huge undertaking, that is the reason I initially installed this app. However, it has done nothing but prove to be a disappointment in comparison to the benefits advertised. Therefore, wanting to be transparent in my review, it is my review of this app and my suggestion to anyone who reads this review not to install this app as it does not provide what it promises. I hope I am able to save you some time. Furthermore, I just finished reaching out to the support team concerning the commonly utilized feature of “lazy loading” for my website. Specifically referring to images “below the fold.”I had just started this journey 4 months ago and was able to deduce what “below the fold” means when used in this reference. It was alarming to me that the support personnel was unfamiliar not only with the term but also with their features in relation to this term. He is going to have his technical support team reach out to me via email. So, in short; their app does not do what they claim and their support team is unable to provide support.

I regretfully installed the Avada SEO Shopify app with the hope of boosting my store's performance. However, my experience with this app has been nothing short of frustrating and disappointing.Before installing the Avada app, my store had a commendable speed score of 75. However, the moment I added this app to my website, I noticed a significant drop in speed, which was truly disheartening. My store's speed plummeted to 60, rendering it slower than ever before.I reached out to the Avada support team immediately, and they assured me that my issue would be resolved within 48 hours. Unfortunately, those 48 hours came and went, and my problem remained unsolved. My store's speed did not improve, and I felt like I was stuck in limbo.To make matters worse, when I contacted the support team again after the initial 48-hour period, they told me it would take an additional three days to resolve the issue. This was incredibly frustrating, as my business was suffering due to the slowdown in website performance caused by this app.Ultimately, I decided to uninstall the Avada SEO app, as it not only failed to deliver on its promises but also caused harm to my store's speed and user experience. I am genuinely surprised that this app has received high ratings, as my experience with it was far from positive.In conclusion, I strongly advise against using the Avada SEO app. It proved to be a waste of time and had a detrimental impact on my store's performance. I hope others can learn from my experience and avoid the frustrations that I had to endure.

Hi,

Thank you so much for taking time to give us a constructive feedback.

Our SEO expert has contacted you and is helping improve the Store speed. Kindly keep in touch so that we can assist you better. Our analysis has revealed that the second slide show on your homepage is currently being lazy-loaded.

With our expertise, we anticipate significant improvements that can elevate your site's speed score to 75 or even beyond. We would appreciate your thoughts on our proposed solution.

We genuinely hope to hear from you soon and are eager to seize the opportunity to make a lasting positive impression. Your feedback and collaboration are invaluable to us as we work together to achieve your website's speed and performance goals.

This app is a waste of money. It doesn't work as described, it duplicated photos of products, and my website is not faster and optimised. I asked for help many many times, no solutions, no answer at all! Be aware!

Not at all helpful. Decreased the speed score & even the basic things are under pro plan which is not at all good for starting stores

Very bad experience.. After installing app when I started image optimization than it stuck after some time... After contact customer care it start ... Again after some time it stop... No technical team available to resolve issue instantly. As per customer care she said me to wait 2 to 3 days for resolving issue. Very discouraging experience...

It seemed to slow down my page speed scores but the bigger problem is now I'm having to take time to manually remove leftover code that wasn't removed by the uninstall function. Now I have to figure out how to remove this line of code: Liquid error (layout/theme line 8): Could not find asset snippets/avada-seo.liquid
