Which one is for you
Pick 4SEO if
- Fits if your Joomla site wants one extension instead of several SEO add-ons
- Works for site owners who plan content from Search Console data
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if your site isn't on Joomla, as that's all it runs on
- Not for you if you want to try it first, since there's no free edition or stated trial
- Pricey if you run more than 3 sites, as unlimited sites need PRO at $249 a year
- Watch out: it keeps working after a year, but downloads and helpdesk access stop until you renew
Pick SEO Pro if
- Fits if you build sites on Statamic and want SEO from Statamic itself
- Works for agencies that want editors to see search previews before publishing
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if your site isn't on Statamic; the listing shows compatibility with Statamic 6
- Pricey if you run many sites, since each production site needs its own $75 license
- Watch out: multi-site and GraphQL use need Statamic Pro, Statamic's paid edition

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
