Merchants describe this as a very easy, beginner‑friendly SEO tool that saves time on bulk tasks like image optimization and ALT tags, with some reporting faster store speeds and better search visibility. They like that it can audit and fix issues automatically in the background. The free plan is seen as genuinely useful, and long‑term merchants remain satisfied. Support is praised as fast, knowledgeable, and highly responsive via live chat.

Well I enjoyed the app up until I actually ran it. Lost HUNDREDS of pictures for my items. Some pictures got duplicated, some go rearranged. Support was quick initially but once I had a real issue it was straight to the "email ticketing" system. Meanwhile my website looks horrible with missing pictures. On top of that, my website is connected to ebay so now all of my ebay pictures are also missing....
I will update this if they come through with a quick fix, but otherwise BEWARE!!!
Hi Gold Spartan,
Darrel here from Booster SEO.
I've read your recent review of our app, and I am so sorry to hear that it caused issues with your images.
Our app is not supposed to modify or delete anything on your site's front end since we only inject our app's SEO improvements directly into your site's source code.
Having said that, if our app indeed deleted your images, we sincerely apologize, and if you will give our app another chance we will be more than happy to investigate and get to the bottom of this issue.
We will thoroughly investigate this issue and get back to you as soon as possible.
We appreciate your patience and if you have any other questions, please respond to the email we sent you.
Best regards,
Darrel
A strange review for me I only had it installed for like 5 mins. I wanted to test it to see if I could use it. The free version lets you automatically update Image Alt tags. I was testing this when I got a popup asking to verify the store. I said yes. The person asked me to clarify the store name then asked me to wait "while he made changes". I asked him what changes and are they to my store. Remember at this stage I'd already given the app edit permissions.
He said not to worry they are only "coding changes". I said wait can you clarify you are making NO changes to my store excluding Alt tags on images". This is where I started to get a weird feeling about it. He said "Yes I'm making no changes directly to the frontend of your store" ????
I didn't like the ambiguous answer as that is far from a definitive YES so I uninstalled.
To be honest it could be great I didn't wait around long enough to see but the way direct questions were answered left me doubting them so I left.
Hi there,
Lester here from Booster SEO Tier 2 Support, I've just read your recent review of our app and I truly apologize for any confusion or concern caused during your brief interaction with our support team.
I completely understand how the situation may have felt unclear, and I appreciate the opportunity to clarify. The free plan of our app indeed focuses solely on optimizing image alt texts - nothing beyond that. The store verification process you encountered is simply a security measure to confirm that the store is legitimate (not a bot), which allows us to whitelist the store for our app’s optimizations (image alt text, in your case).
I understand that the terms used by our chat support team may have caused confusion, and I sincerely apologize for the poor choice of words. We’ll ensure our team communicates more clearly moving forward.
That said, we’d love the chance to start over and show you the true value of Booster SEO, so I sent you an email so we can discuss this further and find a way to make things right for you.
Looking forward to your reply!
Best regards,
Lester
Free plan broke all of my internal links, 636. Wont be purchasing paid plan. SEM rush certification recommended this, but I do not, at least the free plan. Reverted to my backup and immediately resolved.
Darrell, there's no IF, it did. Why would anyone give you a second chance when the first chance through the free option already created problems with website health. 90%-80%. It seems you could have a strategy to harm internal links by making the case that's only the free plan to motivate to upgrade. Not a good look and the negative reviews out there explain many more problems that tell me to avoid this tool.
Hi Tractor Part Direct,
Darrel here, from Booster SEO Support.
I've read your recent review of our app, and I am so sorry to hear that it caused issues with your internal links.
The free plan of our app is limited to one feature only, optimizing image alt tags (bits of image-related code) so that your product images are ranked higher on Google Images. It is not supposed to touch anything else on your store, unless, you are on one of our paid plans.
However, if our app did affect your internal links, we sincerely apologize, and if you will give our app another chance we will be more than happy to investigate and get to the bottom of this issue.
Should you decide to give our app another go, just respond to the email we've sent you.
Regards,
Darrel
The Booster SEO & Image Optimizer is an incredibly user-friendly app. With the auto-pilot feature enabled, it's very easy to use. I had a great interaction with Yaci from customer service, who provided me with a wealth of information about the app. Yaci was friendly and helpful throughout our conversation. I highly recommend this app to any Shopify store owner!
Fantastic! We're so pleased that you find our app user-friendly and that our customer service was able to help. Your recommendation means a lot to us. If you ever have more questions or need further assistance, we're just a message away! 😊

WORSE APP EVER!!!!
I could not do any SEO audits when I first installed this app, so I waited the next day. Still, there are tons of bugs while I am trying to improve SEO performance.
So I decided to uninstall the APP.
THEY DELETED ALL META TITLE AND DESCRIPTIONS FOR ALL OF MY PAGES.
I have to restore a theme to an aged backup and start implementing the updates all over again.
STAY AWAP! USE OTHER APP!
Hi Pengpeng,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and I deeply apologize for any frustration caused. We aim to provide seamless support and regret that your experience fell short of expectations.
I’d like to address your concerns regarding the meta titles and descriptions. Our app is designed to optimize SEO elements but does not inherently delete meta titles or descriptions from your store’s pages upon uninstallation. Such changes are often related to how theme integrations handle data or interactions with other third-party apps.
To assist you further, we’ve sent you an email outlining a resolution and next steps to help restore and improve your store’s SEO setup.
Please don’t hesitate to reply if you have any questions or require additional support—we’re here to help.
Thank you for your feedback. It helps us improve and better support merchants like you moving forward.
Best regards,
Pat

Really impressed with the app so far. Super easy to use and also gives simple actionable steps to help improve your site further. I recently asked a question to their customer service department, and Rain was fantastic. Not only did Rain help with my query quickly, but also proactively gave some small tips for my store, so I left learning a lot more than I had initially thought and feeling super happy!
We're thrilled you're enjoying the app and finding it easy to use! Glad our team could help and share valuable tips for your store. Thanks for the kind words—reach out anytime you need assistance!

This app broke my H1 and description tags, I reached out to support over 3 weeks ago, without a resolution.
I also used the app for a second time and was charged £60 for using it for under 24 hours. I was promised a refund that has still not materialized.
overly expensive, damaging to my website, and unsatisfactory support.
I don't recommend
Hi Drew,
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. We strive to provide the best support possible, and we regret that your experience didn’t meet your expectations.
Regarding the H1 tags, I’d like to clarify that our app does not have the capability to add or remove H1 tags or modify description tags within your store’s theme files. These elements are typically managed by your Shopify theme or other third-party apps.
To address this, we’ve sent you an email with a detailed resolution and next steps to assist you further. Please don’t hesitate to reply if you have any additional questions or concerns—we’d love the opportunity to make things right.
Thank you for your understanding, and we’re committed to improving your experience moving forward.
Best regards,
Pat

Dangerous. The variants on my site stopped working and the support says wait 24hrs for the problem to be escalated. Avoid the Autopilot. When something is too good to be true, it usually is!
Hi Charlie,
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you encountered. We take these matters seriously, and I regret that we weren’t able to investigate and resolve your issue in time.
Our standard process involves a 24-hour turnaround to request collaborator access, review your theme files, check the app's integration, and identify any conflicts. However, as the app was uninstalled the same day the issue was raised, we couldn’t proceed with our investigation.
To address this, we’ve sent you an email with a detailed resolution and a goodwill offer to regain your trust. Please don’t hesitate to reply if you have further questions or concerns—we’d love the opportunity to assist you again.
Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to improve your experience moving forward.
Best regards,
Pat

The app did not work, nothing would load and then it would kick me out only to make me add my domain back into to re-enter the app, even though it is connected to my Shopify admin. The only pages I could access were to choose a plan or the settings page. All of the others pages would not load. customer support was unable to help so they escalated it to tier 2. Was told they would contact me by email. It was taking too long so I just deleted the app. If this is a sign as to what I can expect for this app, no thanks. I installed it because of the great reviews from so many people so I have to say it is a let down to not have the same experience.
Hi Jeremy,
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I sincerely apologize for the challenges you experienced. We take such concerns very seriously, and our engineering team is actively working on resolving this issue as we speak.
Our standard turnaround time for escalations is 24–48 hours, and my colleague’s request for collaborator access was made to thoroughly check your theme files, the app's integration, and resolve the issue effectively.
We’ve also sent you an email with more details regarding this matter. Please feel free to reply to the email if you have any additional questions or concerns.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we’re committed to ensuring a better experience for you moving forward.
Best regards,

Incredibly easy to use, the app was fixing meta tags and broken links instantly, before the site was even launched. User friendly, incredibly fair pricing plans and a wonderful support team. Alex was very friendly and accommodating, I was super lucky to be able to speak with her, 10/10. I love this app!!

We're over the moon to hear how much you love the app and our support! Thanks for the fantastic review and for the perfect rating! 😊
