Yoast SEO has a paid version called Premium, and a set of artificial-intelligence features sold as AI+. They are products of Yoast, the Dutch company that makes the plugin, and they are bought directly from them, on their own site.

We do not sell Yoast. We are not resellers, we do not issue licences, we have no access to your account there and we cannot recover or transfer a licence for you. Anything to do with the purchase, the invoice, the renewal and the support of the paid product is handled with Yoast. What stays with us is the hospedagem the WordPress site runs on.

What the paid version usually adds
| Area |
What changes against the free version |
| Redirects |
When you change or delete an address, the plugin offers to create the redirect. In the free version that is manual work |
| Key phrases |
Lets you work more than one phrase per page, and related forms of the same word |
| Internal links |
Suggests, as you write, other pages on the site to link to |
| Social preview |
Shows how the page will look when shared, before you publish it |
| AI features |
Generated title and description suggestions, and other writing help, sold in the AI+ package |
| Support and adverts |
Entitles you to Yoast support and removes the promotional notices from the dashboard |
|
Do not decide on one feature without confirming it today. Yoast moves features between the free and paid versions, and between packages, several times a year. What is written here is the general picture; the list that counts is on the official product page, on the day you buy. We do not publish prices either: Yoast sets those.

How to buy it and how to install it
| 1 |
You buy it on the Yoast site, with an account there. Payment goes to them, by whatever means they accept.
|
|
| 2 |
Download the plugin file from your Yoast account. It comes as a compressed file.
|
|
| 3 |
In WordPress, open Plugins and Add New, choose Upload Plugin and send the file. If the upload fails with no clear error, it is the upload ceiling: the PHP limits.
|
|
| 4 |
Activate it and enter the licence key on the screen the plugin opens.
|
|
| 5 |
Do not uninstall the free version. The paid one runs on top of it, and both stay installed together. This is not the same as running two SEO plugins.
|
|
| 6 |
Check how many sites the licence covers. Yoast licences are counted per site, and the number depends on the plan you choose. It is stated on the purchase page.
|
|
Is it worth it?
For a small site, with few pages and stable addresses, the free version is more than enough. The paid one starts to pay off when a lot of content moves around, when several people write on the site, or when a shop reorganises its categories often and old addresses get left behind.
And the obvious is worth saying: what decides whether you appear in Google is the content, the speed and time. No paid version of any plugin replaces those. Read the best SEO plugins and how to choose one before spending money.
