InLinks vs WordLift (2026): which should you pick?

Pick InLinks if

• Fits if you want internal links added without editing your CMS templates
• Works for SEOs adding schema markup across many pages at once

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you're staying free, at 2 optimizations a month and 25 pages
• Watch out: unused credits are lost each month, and pages, audits and briefs share one pool
• Skip it if you can't add its JavaScript to your site, as links and schema then go in by hand
• Pricey if you need the API or unlimited users, which start at $196 a month

Pick WordLift if

• Fits if you want an outside SEO team to build and run your structured data
• Works for publishers on WordPress who want entities tagged as posts are written

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you're one person or a small business, at $879 a month even on yearly billing
• Not for you if you want to try it first, as there's no free trial and buying starts with a discovery call
• Watch out: Smart Credits expire each month, or each year on yearly billing, and extra ones come through your account manager
• Tight if your site has more than 2,500 URLs, which moves you to a custom Enterprise quote
• Skip it if you need the full open API, which comes only with Enterprise

InLinks

• Credits renew monthly and unused ones are lost; the page cap equals the monthly credits, and audits and briefs draw on the same pool.
• Links and schema update live only with the InLinks JavaScript on the site; without it, links are added by hand.
• API access and unlimited users start at Level 4, $196 a month; sales tax is added at the local rate.
• The free plan stops at two optimizations a month and 25 pages.

WordLift

• The cheapest published plan is Business+ at $879 a month billed yearly, bought after a discovery session; no free trial is offered on the pricing page.
• AI features use Smart Credits that expire at the end of each month, or each year on yearly billing; extra credits are bought from your account manager.
• Business+ covers 2,500 URLs; larger or more complex sites are quoted as Enterprise.
• The open API in full comes with Enterprise; the Resolve API is a separate beta product.
