Docs SEO NEO Version 1.x Free vs PRO

Free vs PRO

Free SEO NEO ships the full SEO output engine. PRO adds editor tooling, frontend inspection, redirects, sitemaps, and field-mapping visualisers.

SEO NEO comes in two tiers. Free is the SEO output layer: everything your site needs in the <head>. PRO is a growing set of companion modules for editors and site managers who need to verify, debug, redirect, and scale beyond basic metadata.

SEO NEO Free

The free module is not a trial or a stripped-down edition. It is the complete SEO engine: native ProcessWire fields, auto-injection, multilingual support, and the full template API. Most sites can run on Free indefinitely.

Start with the Quickstart if you have not installed it yet.

SEO NEO Pro

Pro modules install on top of Free. They share the same resolved values, so there is no duplicate configuration for titles, canonicals, or noindex rules.

See SEO NEO Pro for an overview of each companion module, or visit the product page for licensing.

Running both together

Install free SEO NEO first, then add whichever Pro modules your licence includes. You can enable Pro modules individually: a site that only needs redirects does not have to install the preview bar or sitemaps module.

Some Pro modules extend each other rather than replacing each other. The preview bar is useful alone; pairing it with Field Mapping or Redirects unlocks additional panel behaviour documented on the SEO Preview Bar page. Sitemaps is independent of the bar.
