Rank Math puts titles, meta tags, schema, sitemaps, redirects and on-page checks right inside the WordPress editor, and the free plugin does most of it. PRO is €8.99 a month at renewal, billed yearly, and adds rank tracking from Search Console. It's WordPress only, though, and it won't help with keyword research or backlinks. - **Value for money: A.** Graded against its alternatives. PRO is €8.99 a month at renewal (€7.99 in the first year), billed yearly before VAT, for unlimited sites you own and 500 tracked keywords. That's under 60% of this category's cheaper quarter, even after converting from euros. - **Free plan and trial: A.** The free plugin from WordPress.org does the core job with no cap a normal site will reach: on-page checks, 16+ schema types, sitemaps, redirects, a 404 monitor and Search Console data every 7 days. - **Features: C.** On-page scores against 30+ tests, schema, sitemaps, redirects and rank tracking fed by Search Console. It does its job fully, but that job is on-page SEO for WordPress, with no keyword research, backlinks or competitor data. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. Inside WordPress it feels familiar, but you need a self-hosted WordPress site or WordPress.com's Business plan first, then the setup and the Google connections. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Runs inside WordPress in the browser and connects to Search Console, Analytics, Google Trends, WooCommerce, Elementor, Divi, WP Rocket and WPML. Nothing for sites that aren't on WordPress. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from Rank Math's own pages on 17 October 2026.
