I installed the Booster SEO app on my Shopify store, but my experience with their support has been frustrating.

I've been trying to get help through their 24/7 support for several days now, but the issue remains unresolved. A Tier 2 agent even requested access to my store but never logged in to address the problem.

Booster SEO provided me with a ticket number, assured me that my issue is a top priority, yet here I am still waiting with no resolution in sight.

As a Shopify user, I rely on apps like Booster SEO to function efficiently, but this lack of support is incredibly disappointing. I hope this post helps bring attention to my unresolved issue and leads to a timely resolution.

This app broke my H1 and description tags, I reached out to support over 3 weeks ago, without a resolution.

I also used the app for a second time and was charged £60 for using it for under 24 hours. I was promised a refund that has still not materialized.

overly expensive, damaging to my website, and unsatisfactory support.

I don't recommend

Hi Drew,

Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. We strive to provide the best support possible, and we regret that your experience didn’t meet your expectations.

Regarding the H1 tags, I’d like to clarify that our app does not have the capability to add or remove H1 tags or modify description tags within your store’s theme files. These elements are typically managed by your Shopify theme or other third-party apps.

To address this, we’ve sent you an email with a detailed resolution and next steps to assist you further. Please don’t hesitate to reply if you have any additional questions or concerns—we’d love the opportunity to make things right.

Thank you for your understanding, and we’re committed to improving your experience moving forward.

Not impressed at all with this. The app is extremely simplistic in reality. By "fixing alt texts" for example, all it does is duplicate your page title across all images for a product. This duplication would just get you down ranked. It would at least have been useful to add context or some kind of structure to the auto generated alt texts, but control is limited.

It also messed up my meta title and descriptions which I had written myself for every one of my 500+ products. Downgrading my plan undid some of the damage, but I still have a lot to fix now.

Support is also laughable. Very unimpressed with this simplistic and overpriced app. Not a scam, but not far off.

Hi James,

Darrel here from Booster SEO. I want to sincerely apologize for the issues you've encountered and thank you for your feedback.

I understand the frustration with the app's AutoPilot feature not automating everything. Just to clarify, what our app does is use your Product title as the Meta title and Product description as the Meta description by default or if you use the "Let the app decide" option on the AutoPilot page. The idea is that you already have the proper keyword in your Product Title and Description, the main keyword will be your Product Title(since your product title should have the best keyword that describes your product) and in the event that keyword is not in your meta description then the app will let you know that it needs to be added on your product description manually so that it'll be updated in the meta description coming from our app. Our app does do a lot automatically through its AutoPilot features, but some SEO involves keyword-optimizing the visible content of your pages (such as your product descriptions), and our app never does that automatically, for two reasons:​

- Google is quite good at detecting (and penalizing) when an app has automatically generated page content, so our app avoids it.

- As an expert in your industry, you are the best judge of what keywords are best and how they should be written into your content, so our app gives you guidance on where keywords are missing but leaves the writing up to you.

Regarding our app's alt-text feature just using the Product title, just like with the meta title and meta description, by default the app will use the Product title and your Store's name for the alt tags. It is designed this way since the best practice for alt tags is to describe the image in three to five words that include your focus keywords, and that keyword will come from your product title.

As you can see, the app relies heavily on your product title for keywords since the product title should be the keyword or contains the keyword that best describes your product. To learn about the most streamlined process for optimizing keywords in our app, and for a more in-depth introduction to keywords, see our guide How to Optimize Keywords for SEO in our Help Site which we sent to you via email.

If you don't want to use the app's default setting for alt tags, meta titles, and meta descriptions, it does provide an option to use other templates. The guide was also sent to you via email.

We would like to extend our apologies for any inconvenience caused and as mentioned above, we sent you an email to properly address your concerns with our app.

We look forward to hearing back from you.

Best regards,

Darrel

The module has messed up all the meta fields and the order of the product photos.
We have to invest hours to correct everything that was caused by the module.

Hi there,

Lester here from Booster SEO Tier 2 Support, I have read your recent review and I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration this situation has caused. I want to address your concerns thoroughly and provide some clarity on the issue you’ve mentioned.

First, I’d like to reassure you that our app does not have the capability to directly edit or rearrange meta fields or product photos in your store’s backend. Our app works by creating overrides to optimize meta tags within the source code without altering your original Shopify settings. These changes are non-intrusive and cease to apply once the app is uninstalled. The issues you’ve experienced with product photos and meta fields may have been caused by another app or an unrelated configuration or compatibility error. Unfortunately, without access to your store during the time the app was installed, we could not investigate or identify any potential conflicts or sources of the problem. To address this, we’ve sent you an email with a detailed resolution and next steps to assist you further. Please don’t hesitate to reply if you have any additional questions or concerns—we’d love the opportunity to make things right.

Thank you for your understanding, and we’re committed to improving your experience moving forward.

Best regards,
Lester

WORSE APP EVER!!!!

I could not do any SEO audits when I first installed this app, so I waited the next day. Still, there are tons of bugs while I am trying to improve SEO performance.

So I decided to uninstall the APP.

THEY DELETED ALL META TITLE AND DESCRIPTIONS FOR ALL OF MY PAGES.

I have to restore a theme to an aged backup and start implementing the updates all over again.

STAY AWAP! USE OTHER APP!

Hi Pengpeng,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and I deeply apologize for any frustration caused. We aim to provide seamless support and regret that your experience fell short of expectations.

I’d like to address your concerns regarding the meta titles and descriptions. Our app is designed to optimize SEO elements but does not inherently delete meta titles or descriptions from your store’s pages upon uninstallation. Such changes are often related to how theme integrations handle data or interactions with other third-party apps.

To assist you further, we’ve sent you an email outlining a resolution and next steps to help restore and improve your store’s SEO setup.

Please don’t hesitate to reply if you have any questions or require additional support—we’re here to help.

Thank you for your feedback. It helps us improve and better support merchants like you moving forward.

Best regards,
Pat

Dangerous. The variants on my site stopped working and the support says wait 24hrs for the problem to be escalated. Avoid the Autopilot. When something is too good to be true, it usually is!

Hi Charlie,

Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you encountered. We take these matters seriously, and I regret that we weren’t able to investigate and resolve your issue in time.

Our standard process involves a 24-hour turnaround to request collaborator access, review your theme files, check the app's integration, and identify any conflicts. However, as the app was uninstalled the same day the issue was raised, we couldn’t proceed with our investigation.

To address this, we’ve sent you an email with a detailed resolution and a goodwill offer to regain your trust. Please don’t hesitate to reply if you have further questions or concerns—we’d love the opportunity to assist you again.

Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to improve your experience moving forward.

The app did not work, nothing would load and then it would kick me out only to make me add my domain back into to re-enter the app, even though it is connected to my Shopify admin. The only pages I could access were to choose a plan or the settings page. All of the others pages would not load. customer support was unable to help so they escalated it to tier 2. Was told they would contact me by email. It was taking too long so I just deleted the app. If this is a sign as to what I can expect for this app, no thanks. I installed it because of the great reviews from so many people so I have to say it is a let down to not have the same experience.

Free plan broke all of my internal links, 636. Wont be purchasing paid plan. SEM rush certification recommended this, but I do not, at least the free plan. Reverted to my backup and immediately resolved.

Darrell, there's no IF, it did. Why would anyone give you a second chance when the first chance through the free option already created problems with website health. 90%-80%. It seems you could have a strategy to harm internal links by making the case that's only the free plan to motivate to upgrade. Not a good look and the negative reviews out there explain many more problems that tell me to avoid this tool.

Hi Tractor Part Direct,
​
Darrel here, from Booster SEO Support.
​
​I've read your recent review of our app, and I am so sorry to hear that it caused issues with your internal links.

The free plan of our app is limited to one feature only, optimizing image alt tags (bits of image-related code) so that your product images are ranked higher on Google Images. It is not supposed to touch anything else on your store, unless, you are on one of our paid plans.

However, if our app did affect your internal links, we sincerely apologize, and if you will give our app another chance we will be more than happy to investigate and get to the bottom of this issue.

Should you decide to give our app another go, just respond to the email we've sent you.

Regards,
Darrel

The fact that it could not add our store's name to the naming of the image files, something so basic, yet it could not. Also after reviewing our site, the recommendations were installing dozens of more apps to do their suggested work. Pointless waste

Hi there,

I'd like to extend our apologies about your recent experience with our app and support. I’d also like to take this opportunity to clarify and assist further.

Our app is coded to be lightweight and designed to integrate seamlessly with your store. However, certain factors outside of the app such as your store’s theme, leftover codes, other installed apps, or Shopify’s API status can occasionally affect its performance. I’d be happy to investigate and work with you to identify and resolve any issues should you decide to reinstall the app.

Regarding your mention of our support, I assure you that our chat support is entirely handled by humans, committed to providing personalized assistance. If there’s anything we could have done better, I’d love to hear your thoughts so we can continue improving.

I have sent you an email so we can hopefully continue this conversation and work towards a resolution as soon as possible.

Thank you for your understanding, and I hope to hear from you soon.

Best regards,
Lester
