Squirrly SEO Reviews

I’ve been using the free version of Squirrly SEO for a while, and I must say, the premium version is absolutely worth it. After years of relying on RankMath – which is a fantastic and user-friendly SEO tool – I decided to switch to Squirrly SEO. Why? Because I believe it’s just as good as RankMath, if not significantly better in certain SEO aspects. The features it offers are exceptional and have already made a noticeable impact on my sites.

That said, there are a couple of areas where Squirrly SEO could improve:

1️⃣ While the design and UX aren’t bad, they aren’t top-notch either. If so many users are pointing out the need for UX improvements, I think the team should seriously consider investing time and resources into enhancing it. The tool is already fantastic, but imagine how incredible it could be with an extraordinary user experience.

2️⃣ On Tier 3, which I purchased, the limit of 10 focus pages per site feels quite restrictive. I believe it should be increased to 30 for Tier 3, 40 for Tier 4, and so on. While I understand focus pages can be changed, the process isn’t the most convenient.

On a final note, I want to say I’m the number one fan of Hide My WP Ghost, created by the same team. It’s my go-to tool for WordPress protection and security, and it has kept my sites safe for years without a single incident. The company behind these plugins has consistently proven how committed they are to delivering outstanding products that genuinely help users. They’re always improving their tools and listening to feedback, which shows they care deeply about creating the best possible experience.

Highly recommended!

Sigh... Let’s get this straight. Going into Squirrly, I was expecting an intuitive, polished interface that played nice with Oxygen Builder. I thought I’d be greeted by a smart AI assistant that would take me by the hand and guide me through SEO optimization. Something that would clearly tell me what keywords to target, give me an honest assessment of my content, and hand over a prioritized, actionable task list that I could implement without headaches.

Instead, I got a clunky, disorganized mess. The interface is chaotic, features feel slapped together without any rhyme or reason, and after slogging through five painful hours trying to make sense of it, I couldn’t stomach it anymore. Navigating this thing feels like being stuck in quicksand—every action requires clicking through at least three different menus to find what you’re looking for. It’s maddeningly slow, frustrating, and frankly not worth the time.

And let’s not ignore the English on this platform—if you can even call it that. “Do a research”? Seriously? Who thought that was acceptable? The broken language only adds to the confusion and makes an already terrible experience even worse. It’s clear this wasn’t crafted by a native speaker, and it shows.

I’m honestly baffled at how Squirrly has so many positive reviews. Are we using the same product? Or is this just some marketing smoke-and-mirrors act? Whatever it is, I’m out.

Refund requested.
Best of luck to them—they’re gonna need it.

Slow. Confusing. Over wrote my meta tags, made a mess of things because it didn't play well with RankMath or Yoast. Support was like . . . hello. Hello. HELLO!

These guys have been around for a long time and it seems like they haven't updated their UX in a looooooong time, either. Like. Oh you install the program in 2024 and it doesn't think to check for Rank Math or Yoast and then say to the users, ummmm. Let's decide what to do. Do you want Squirrly to do the Rank Math stuff or just the Keyword SEO stuff????

Would have liked to have liked this program but it wasn't to be. It tries to to be too many things and then doesn't step back. I've invested a lot of time and effort into RankMath.

While the tool itself its good and have all that a SEO tool needs, its way wayyyyy to confusing in the layout that I had to sell it. Too bad since its nice. Currently using SEO Press that is miles ahead in terms of UX and UI.

Don't buy it; it's terrible! It's been more than a year, and it's worthless. The features are poor and not worth using.
