Which one is for you

Pick Detailed SEO Extension if

  • Fits if you check titles, headings and schema on single pages and don't want to read the source
  • Works for checking hreflang on a multi-language site, alternate by alternate

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you want search volumes, rankings or backlinks, as it has none of its own
  • Too light for whole-site audits, since it inspects one page at a time
  • Not for you if you browse in Safari or Edge, as only Chrome and Firefox are listed
  • Watch out: the changelog's last entry is December 2024, though both stores show an update in 2026, and the interface is English only

Pick SEO Minion if

  • Fits if you already pay for Keywords Everywhere Silver or higher and want page checks in the same plan
  • Works for checking hreflang and redirect chains on international sites, one page at a time

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you only want page checks, as it means $168 a year up front where most of this category is free
  • Not for you if you want to try it first, as there's no free version and no trial
  • Watch out: Keywords Everywhere bills yearly only, with no monthly option, and Bronze doesn't include it
  • Too light for whole-site audits, since it checks one page or one search at a time
  • Skip it if you browse in Safari, as only Chrome, Firefox and Edge are listed

How we grade them

3.0GPADetailed SEO ExtensionVery good2.0GPASEO MinionFair
Value for money
AFree outright on Chrome and Firefox, and its page says there's no paid version and no upsells. Tags, headings, links, schema and hreflang all come at no cost.
BSilver, the cheapest Keywords Everywhere plan that includes it, is $14 a month billed yearly ($168) for up to 3 users, right on this category's cheaper-quarter line. One person pays the same $14, and it brings 400,000 keyword credits a year.
Free plan and trial
AEvery feature is free, with no account, no plan to upgrade to and nothing held back.
FNothing is free. The cheaper Bronze plan leaves SEO Minion out, and there's no separate free version and no trial, so the way in is $168 for a year of Silver.
Features
CTitle, meta description, meta robots and X-Robots-Tag, headings, link and image exports, schema, hreflang with return-link checks and People Also Ask extraction. The gap the listing names: no keyword volumes, rankings or backlink data of its own.
BMeta, Open Graph, canonical and robots tags, broken links by status, server, meta and JavaScript redirects, hreflang return tags, JSON-LD, RDFa and microdata, HTML against the rendered DOM and SERP previews from any location. Volumes come with the plan it needs.
Ease of use
BNo rating on record, but there's nothing to set up: install it, open a page, click the icon and the panel is there.
CNo rating on record. Before it works you buy a Keywords Everywhere plan and set it up with that plan's API key, from your subscription page.
Platforms and integrations
CChrome and Firefox extensions, so computers only, with no Safari or Edge version named. The Ahrefs, Semrush, Moz and Majestic links open those sites; no data is pulled in from them.
CAn extension for Chrome, Firefox and Edge, so computers only, with no Safari version. It connects to Keywords Everywhere and works on Google Search, and nothing else is listed.

    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.
