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 SerpWorx if

  • Fits if you size up the pages ranking for a keyword before writing for it
  • Works for comparing Majestic, Moz and Semrush figures in one place

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you're one person, at $29.95 a month where most extensions here cost nothing
  • Tight if you want to try it properly, as the free trial lasts 3 days
  • Watch out: its own pricing page couldn't be read, so usage limits and any team plans are unconfirmed
  • Skip it if you don't pay for Ahrefs, since the Ahrefs metrics need your own account
  • Not for you if you're not on Chrome, as no Firefox version was found

How we grade them

3.0GPADetailed SEO ExtensionVery good1.6GPASerpWorxWeak
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.
D$29.95 a month, per its Chrome Web Store listing, which is where this category's dearest tenth starts. 19 of the 22 tools here are free outright, and the Ahrefs figures still need a separate Ahrefs account.
Free plan and trial
AEvery feature is free, with no account, no plan to upgrade to and nothing held back.
DNo free plan. The trial needs no card but lasts 3 days, under a week, and then it's $29.95 a month.
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.
CMajestic Trust Flow, Moz Domain Authority and Spam Score, Semrush traffic, Ahrefs ratings, word and heading counts, keyword frequency, broken links and a mobile check. No title, meta or schema checks are on record, and the Ahrefs part needs your own account.
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. It's a subscription to sign up for, and the Ahrefs figures only appear if you have your own Ahrefs account.
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.
CChrome only, so computers only, with no Firefox add-on found under its name. It pulls figures from Majestic, Moz, Ahrefs, Semrush and the Wayback Machine.

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.
