## Ways to pay less

- **Save 20% to 26% with a yearly commitment** (Annual discount): Project is $29 a month on a yearly commitment instead of $39 month to month, Growth $99 instead of $129, and Business $199 instead of $249. Source: https://www.seo4ajax.com/pricing/

## Key features

- **Dynamic rendering for bots:** Pages are captured with a current version of Chrome and the cached snapshots are served to search engines such as Google and Bing and to social networks.
- **Server snippets and middleware:** The console gives configuration snippets for Apache, Nginx and IIS, and there are middlewares for Express, Django, Rails and Java plus guides for Cloudflare and CloudFront.
- **Dedicated capture browsers:** Each plan has dedicated browsers that capture pages in parallel; one browser averages about 200,000 captures a month, enough to refresh a Project site every 3 days.
- **Console metrics:** Shows bot activity, cache freshness, duplicate pages and broken links for each site, with metadata exports to CSV.
- **Capture hooks and rewrite rules:** Control how pages are captured and return HTTP errors or redirects to bots, page by page or by URL pattern.
- **SEO reports:** Premium plans add reports on technical issues that can hurt indexing, such as broken links, duplicates and invalid hreflang tags.

## Good for

- Single-page apps that search engines and social bots cannot read
- Developers who want rendering added through server config rather than code changes
- Small JavaScript sites that fit in 1,000 cached pages for free

## Worth knowing

- A yearly commitment is still charged monthly, and cancelling it early costs the lesser of three months of fees or half of what remains.
- Pages beyond the allowance cost $1.50 per 1,000 on Project, $1.00 on Growth and $0.50 on Business.
- SEO reports need the Premium version of each plan, which costs $10 to $66 a month more on a yearly commitment.
- Plans cap the number of websites at 3, 5 or 10, and a 99.9% uptime SLA is an extra $39 or $79 a month on Growth and Business.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. SEO4Ajax crawls a JavaScript site with Chrome and serves cached snapshots to search and social bots, with a free plan for 1,000 pages a month. Every plan needs server configuration, SEO reports cost extra on the Premium versions, and leaving a yearly commitment early costs up to three months of fees.

- **Value for money: C.** Project is $29 a month on a yearly commitment ($39 monthly) for 20,000 pages and 3 sites, between this category's cheaper quarter and its middle. The Premium version with SEO reports is $39, and a 99.9% uptime SLA is extra on Growth and Business.
- **Free plan and trial: B.** The Developer plan is free for good with no card: 1,000 pages and 2,500 snapshots a month with community support, which covers a small JavaScript site.
- **Features: C.** Chrome snapshots served to search and social bots, capture hooks and rewrite rules, and a console showing bot activity, cache freshness, duplicates and broken links. It does dynamic rendering fully, but that's a smaller job, and SEO reports are Premium only.
- **Ease of use: D.** No rating on record. You add its snippet to Apache, Nginx or IIS, or a middleware for Express, Django, Rails or Java, before bots see anything.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, with server snippets and middlewares for Apache, Nginx, IIS, Express, Django and Rails, plus Cloudflare and CloudFront guides. No desktop or phone app.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** Nothing SEO4Ajax does is plain enough to make in a weekend. The 2 things listed below take a company. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 43 of the 83 other technical SEO tools grade higher. It costs $348 a year.

- You could not: A crawler that checks every page of a site.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Apache, Nginx and IIS among them, and has an API.
