Yoast SEO ‑ SEO for stores

I don't usually take the time out to leave reviews unless a product/service is like no other. I have been using Shopify for my e-commerce store since 2017 and have tried and tested a few SEO apps over the years. There has not been one like Yoast SEO and now can confirm that this is the ultimate SEO app in the market. What I particularly like about this app is its ease of use and their customer service; their response time is quick and efficient. The Yoast SEO team truly go above and beyond in answering your questions and provide a bespoke solution to your store. Having said that, I have learnt world class holistic SEO practices from their SEO courses available at Yoast Academy. I was so invested and convinced by their resources as it provided me with results that I could have never imagined of. For example, a lot of my products were listed on Google's 1st page and were also listed on Google's Shopping tab, within a matter of few weeks of after implementing their app and following teachings from their courses. As a result, I upgraded to their premium plan without hesitation. The courses are thorough and will teach you the core basics you need to know of SEO. I had no knowledge of SEO when I first started and always felt overwhelmed when I tried to learn from other apps and resources I tried. Taking their courses was the best decision I ever made for it taught me valuable skills of SEO best practices that I can apply in any case or scenario. It broke down each pillar of SEO; on page SEO, technical SEO and off page SEO and how to use them all together for quick and reliable SEO success. If there is any app you want to install for your online success or invest in to learn SEO; make it Yoast SEO because you will be killing two birds with one stone. My only complaint is that I wish they had launched Yoast SEO on Shopify sooner as it would have saved me a lot of time, effort and money that I had wasted trialing other apps trying to achieve what I achieved with Yoast SEO within a few months of being committed and dedicated to the app. Definitely recommend!

This App is worth every penny (cent, dollar). I have been using it for some time now after finding other SEO providers fell short. This is an in-depth app from a well-known, trusted and respected provider. I was delighted when I saw there was a Shopify version. I'll be honest, you have to work on your site, but it becomes easier. I now have increased sales, know my site much better than I did, and put in the time to learn the 'new language' wrapped around SEO work. There is plenty of support and help from Yoast in explainers and how-to-type guides. You can also monitor the progress you are making at nearly every keystroke! Recently I came across a problem (and new words and explainers) highlighted by Google, which I wasn't able to figure out. I reached out to Yoast and have had the best service. I wouldn't have believed it. Prompt, professional, and genuinely wanting to help. My hero has been Sid, very helpful and patient. In short, I would highly recommend this app. I am still learning and getting better results and sales as I do. Highly recommended.

Update: 9-26-2023: I appreciate you announcing that the issue that you never told your users about until we contacted you. It is a very important part of the SEO scoring process on your app. Your user can easily place too many keywords in a description which will effect our search engine results. I have lost trust because you should have notified your users in the app or by email when it first happened.

UPDATE 9-23-2023: Very disappointed in my response from support that one of the important components in this app are not working. Said it was a known bug with no ETA on a fix. I have a hard time thinking all of the calculations with keywords in my content may not off.

UPDATE: I will give it another try and see what we can accomplish with SEO between now and Christmas Shopping time.

I have used this app for nearly 7 months ago and it was easy to use and I trusted it would help. If anything we have lost rankings more than.

All I can say is WOW! I have been emailing back and forth with Yoast for a few days now for help. Every time they emailed me back it was more than help; it was over-the-top help. They take pride in customer service and make sure you don't struggle with anything. Thank you Yoast and thank you for all your help, it sure helped. Sid, Michael, and Pie Thank You!

The app definitely teaches you a lot about SEO. You still need to enter everything yourself, it's not going to do it for you- as it shouldn't, but it's very helpful with letting you know when you're doing something right- or wrong.
I had a few questions, and "Sid" of the support team got back to me in great detail, with screenshots etc. I like it when support is that thorough, and not just with a few sentences.
