 "summary": "Shopify and BigCommerce SEO app with one-click AI optimisation: bulk meta tags, image alt text and file names, URL edits, JSON-LD schema and rich snippets, 404 fixing and 301 redirects, image compression for page speed, and a built-in keyword rank tracker with a Cruise Control auto-SEO mode.",
 "best_for": "Shopify or BigCommerce merchants with a few hundred to a few thousand products who want on-page SEO cleaned up in bulk — meta tags, image alt text and file names, URLs, JSON-LD schema, 404s and redirects, image compression for page speed — and who would rather have a keyword rank tracker in the same app than pay for a second subscription",
 "skip_if": "you need keyword research, backlink data or content strategy, none of which this does; or you want daily rank checks, because the tracker runs monthly on Free and weekly above it. A small catalogue is not a reason to skip the app: if the free plan's 50 pages already cover you, the answer is to stay on Free, which the vendor says has no time limit",
 "honest_knock": "Every plan, free included, lists free SEO consultancy, and it is worth knowing what sits next to it. seokart.com sells a managed SEO service at $799, $1,299 and $1,949 a month (read 14 September 2026). That is a separate, optional service rather than a tier of the app, and a free consultation is the natural place for a conversation about it to start. The evidence base is decent rather than deep: 69 reviews on 12 September 2026, launched 4 June 2020, developer Activant Solutions Pvt Ltd in Jaipur. The 5.0 average hides the shape — 67 five-star reviews and two one-star, with nothing in between. Then the two limits that decide whether this is the right tool. The rank tracker checks monthly on Free and weekly on Pro and above, so it is a trend line, not a daily rank check, and 100 tracked keywords is what every Shopify plan card publishes, but that is not the ceiling: the vendor's own configurator at seokart.com/pricing sells 200 to 500 tracked keywords as a priced step, $10 a month per extra 100 on a 1,000-product store and $20 a step on a 10,000-product one (read 15 September 2026). And one-click AI optimisation writes meta titles and descriptions in bulk: that is the whole appeal. This review is researched rather than hands-on, so take the next line as general practice with any bulk AI writer and not as something we watched SEOKart produce -- budget a pass for reading what it wrote on your best-selling pages before you let Cruise Control run unattended. The app also needs access to products, store analytics and the Online Store, plus blog contributor data.",

  "notes": "(price read 2026-09-12, re-verified 2026-09-15 and again unchanged on 2026-10-14) Two publishers, and they do not publish the same ladder. The Shopify listing, https://apps.shopify.com/seokart, bills in USD and recurs every 30 days through Shopify, with four fixed tiers. Free covers 50 pages of one-click AI optimisation, 10 tracked keywords checked monthly, 50 image optimisations and 50 pages of bulk editing, with limited rich snippets. Pro is $20 a month or $216 a year for 1,000 products with 100 tracked keywords checked weekly, unlimited image and bulk optimisation, full rich snippets, a 404 fixer and Cruise Control auto-SEO. Plus is $30 a month or $324 a year for 5,000 products, Max $40 or $432 for 10,000, and annual billing saves 10% on all three. On those four cards the tracked-keyword line never moves off 100 and the feature lists above Pro are word for word identical.\n\nThe vendor's own page sells the same app as one configurable Pro plan and runs much further. Under the APP tab on https://seokart.com/pricing (read 15 September 2026) the card carries two dropdowns. Catalogue size, priced at the base 100 keywords: 1,000 products $20 a month, 5,000 $30, 10,000 $40, 25,000 $75, 50,000 $100, 100,000 $150, 500,000 $300, 1,000,000 $500 and 2,000,000 $800. Tracked keywords are the second dropdown and run 100, 200, 300, 400, 500. That step is charged, and it costs more the larger the catalogue: on 1,000 products the five choices are $20, $30, $40, $50 and $60 a month, and on 10,000 products they are $40, $60, $80, $100 and $120. So 500 keywords on a 10,000-product store is $120 a month, three times the $40 the Shopify card presents as the top of the range. The first three catalogue rungs match the Shopify tiers exactly; what the listing leaves out is everything above 10,000 products and the keyword dropdown altogether.\n\nThe same vendor page also sells a managed SEO service at $799, $1,299 and $1,949 a month (read 14 September 2026). That is a separate, optional service alongside the app, and it is what the free SEO consultancy in the plan table opens the door to. The app is sold for BigCommerce too: that listing, https://www.bigcommerce.com/apps/seokart/ (read 14 September 2026, last updated there 2 September 2026), publishes a $20 a month recurring fee, no upfront charge and a 10-day free trial.",

  "name": "StoreSEO",
  "why": "Both bulk-optimise a Shopify store's metadata, and the split is catalogue size against the free ceiling. StoreSEO's Free Forever covers 25 products and its first paid tier, Lite, is $14.99 a month for 100 (read 19 August 2026); SEOKart's free tier covers 50 pages of AI optimisation and its first paid tier is $20 a month for 1,000 products with 100 tracked keywords. Under a hundred products StoreSEO is the cheaper way in. Above that the comparison flips, because $20 covering a thousand products is the cheapest full-catalogue step of the two, and rank tracking is included rather than bought separately"
