I REMOVED YOUR APP WHY DID YOU STILL CHARGE ME? I WANT THE 55.00 REFUNDED ASAP. I read in another review "To cancel your trial period, you just need to simply uninstall the app in your Shopify admin before your trial runs out. Uninstalling the app from your store will effectively cancel your subscription." THAT IS UNTRUE. I uninstalled the app and it charged me 55.00 anyway.
Hi Expressive DeZien, Darrel here from Booster SEO. I've read your recent app store review and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. Sorry for any confusion here. The reason you were charged is that you uninstalled the app after your monthly subscription began or renewed which was on May 5, 2024, you uninstalled the app on May 13, 2024. No worries though, we will be happy to get this sorted for you. We have gone ahead and sent you an email to resolve this issue. We look forward to your response to our email and hope you are open to clearing this up. Cheers, Darrel

This app comes with a free trial. There was no indication of how to successfully cancel the membership before the trial period ended. We spent over 30 minutes looking for how to communicate our wishes and how to change our subscription to no avail. Misleading to consumer and actually a waste of our time.
Hi SW Coast Refills, Darrel here from Booster SEO, thanks for getting in touch! I've read your recent app store review and I sincerely apologize if you didn't manage to find how to cancel the app's paid plan or trial period. To cancel your trial period, you just need to simply uninstall the app in your Shopify admin before your trial runs out. Uninstalling the app from your store will effectively cancel your subscription. Here is our guide on how to uninstall the app - https://help.boosterseo.com/en/articles/8771541-how-to-cancel-a-paid-subscription We really hope to improve your experience with our app so we sent you an email with more details. Please let us know if you have other concerns. Cheers, Darrel

I tried this app with the free trial. A few days later I downgraded back to the basic (free) plan and guess what? At the end of the month I was still charged. I have uninstalled the app and I'm never using it again. Give me a refund, thanks.
Hi there, Darrel here from Booster SEO. I've read your recent app store review and I'm very sorry to hear that you got charged. I am very sorry for the confusion. Please note that the reason you were charged was because the app was uninstalled after the Trial Period. The app was installed and the Premium plan's 7-day trial period started on March 2, 2024, but the app was uninstalled on March 28, 2024. To avoid being charged, the plan should have been downgraded to the Free plan or the app should have been uninstalled before March 9, 2024. However, as a courtesy and since you haven't used the app for the full billing period, we proceeded and reversed the charge yesterday. We also sent you an email for more information. I hope this clears up any confusion and we wish you and your business all the success! If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out or respond to the email we sent you. Regards, Darrel

Have been using this app for this last 18 months and not found it helpful. We have been paying for the premium service while doing some SEO work ourselves. I couldn't any evidence that we were getting any benefit for our fee and so in December I tried running the automatic updates on the app. Since then our impressions and clicks have plummeted. I contacted their customer service and asked why this was and for any evidence that their app was improving our SEO. They were not able to provide any evidence and all they could suggest was undoing their auto-updates and contacting Google to ask them why our clicks/impressions had dropped so drastically.
Hi Hayley, Darrel here from Booster SEO. I hope this message finds you well. I recently came across your feedback regarding your experience with our app, and I want to sincerely apologize for any frustration or inconvenience you may have encountered.

I understand your concerns about the effectiveness of our app and the impact on your website's performance. We take your feedback seriously, and I want to assure you that we are committed to addressing and resolving these issues promptly. Upon reviewing your case, it appears that there may be a misunderstanding regarding the expected timeline for seeing significant SEO improvements. While our app primarily focuses on On-Page SEO enhancements, it is crucial to note that the overall impact can vary based on various factors, including your website's current state, industry competitiveness, and the effectiveness of both On-Page and Off-Page SEO strategies. That being said, we acknowledge your desire for tangible evidence of the benefits our app provides. To address your concerns, we have gone ahead and sent you an email so that we can resolve them. We look forward to your response to the email we sent you. Best regards, Darrel

READ THE REVIEW BELOW LEFT BY "Love My Animal Life"---THIS APP DOES NOT DO WHAT IT CLAIMS!!!! Adding insult to injury, after uninstalling the app it ruined my theme code and metadata!!! "Super expensive and doesn’t do what it says. Look at your ‘Alt text’ after running the optimization prompt – nothing. The report will tell you that it did a great bulk edit and completed it successfully, but very wrong! It did rename all the photos properly – actually very well (5 stars there, but that’s the end of the 5 stars for me). Look at Meta Data/Descriptions after it says it “optimized” it for you – Nothing! No changes! My images were already optimized (somewhat) at under 400k for size, but out of 2400 photos it only dropped the amount by 76mb. I encourage users to ‘actually’ look to see if this app is making substantial changes to your site in a positive way. The funny part is, I did all the recommended optimization through their app AND then I went into the ‘SEO Audits section – Select a Product’ then looked – no alt text was ever added, matter of fact, they are telling you to add it manually to improve your product SEO. So! I didn’t stop there, I tried again and nothing, again – so I installed Hextom: Bulk Image Edit & SEO (simultaneously with this app), then I ran their Alt Text on a few of my listings. Guess what “this” Booster SEO app said on those listings when I refreshed the page? ….. Great Job! You added Alt Text and my score went up. WTF! I signed up for the $69.99/mo plan!!! That is a ridiculous amount of money – ESPECIALLY when it’s not doing what it says it’s going to do and I had to install another app to help show me all this! Btw, that app is so far amazing! Everything you tell it to do, you can go look and it actually does it – for a fraction of the price! Guess where my business went? Another thing the Meta Data & Descriptions – no change, whatsoever…. So, I contacted customer support and they said our app can’t and doesn’t change text. Which I can sort of understand (you don’t want apps messing with your own words) Well, it doesn’t even add or do anything to optimize. ALL THIS DOES is give you a nice report (when clicking into every listing you have) how to try and optimize it yourself. So, for some maybe that knowledge is enough to pay that kind of money, but you can find that on google for free, just look up how to optimize your website for SEO, or better yet YouTube is packed with info! Sorry for the rant, but I don’t care how many 5 stars this has, look for yourself…. It’s not doing what it portrays to do when you read about it when purchasing and the reason for this big review is I am a HARD worker, along with others, I’m sure. It’s not fair that they are wasting their money every month (an extreme amount!) for something that is not doing what they think it is. Again, just run the test folks, look for yourself! For all you small business owners trying to succeed, I wish you the best! You can do this!"

App randomly deletes uploaded images both for products and blog posts.
Hi Grand Goldman and Co, James here with the Booster SEO team. Yikes. I am so sorry to hear this happened. That should _never_ happen. I've got our Tier 2 team looking into this right now. In fact it's not possible for the app to do this, so I'm thinking this could be a clue to something else. In any case we'll look into it now and reach out over email shortly. I also reached out over email to help make things right. If you have any questions please touch base with our support manager, [email protected]. Cheers, James

After uninstalling the App, i lost my Meta title and meta description codes from my theme. please be careful with this app and they never backed to me to fix the issue.

These people pretty much stole money from me. I was under the impression that I could try this app out under a free trial and if it wasn't working out for what I had in mind I could just contact customer service and they would refund my money. I haven't used this app since the first three days and they still took my money. I sent emails and was never contacted or responded to. Horrible!!!
Hey Ne! James here from the Booster SEO team. I'm so sorry about your experience with our support. We did receive 1 email from you on July 27th that requested a refund back and our team asked for some more information about the charge, because it wasn't showing on the Shopify invoice yet for us to refund it. That should have been explained and we should have followed up with you after that. I'm sorry. I went ahead and issued you a full refund for the month you were charged and have reached out to help make things right. Cheers, James

Mediocre and expensive. I am glad I rid of it. Moreover, even uninstalled for more than a month it CHAREGED me $69!!!! Use TinyIMG instead - it is MUCH MORE efficient and cost a fraction of that one.

I loved this app at the start, but then problems came from out of nowhere... I have been paying for this app since late 2021 & now all of a sudden I checked back on it & my pro plan was removed without me stopping the subscription, while still being charged every month... Their support team is all over the place, people asking me the same questions without looking back at the previous chats & they said I cancelled my subscription on the 8th July, even though on my upcoming bill the app is still being charged... I didn't cancel the app, I got in touch with them because I noticed I was being charged but getting told I'm on the free plan.
Hi there, Darrel here from Booster SEO. I've read your app store review and I sincerely apologize for the mishap.

Please respond to the email we sent you. We are committed to providing you with the best service possible and will do everything in our power to ensure that you have a positive experience with our app moving forward. Once again, please accept our sincere apologies for the disruption and inconvenience caused. Sincerely, Darrel

free version...nothing is free. Even if you manage to do some changes manually, they go away once you uninstall.
Hi TheHolyArt, I've read your recent feedback about our app and apologize for the confusion. Our app's Free version is limited to one feature only: optimizing image alt tags or alt-text(bits of image-related code) so that your product images are ranked higher on Google Images. Also, I want to clarify that uninstalling the app doesn't remove the alt-text/tags added by our app's free version, those will be permanent since our app has access to your image alt tags/text on your Shopify admin. To further explain this, we have gone ahead and sent you an email. Sincerely, Darrel

I used Booster SEO over the last few months, before ultimately deciding to stop using it over the last few weeks as I transitioned to doing technical SEO work more manually. The app is easy to install and automatically works on technical SEO work for you, which is nice. However, the main issue with this app is that it is quite vindictive if you ever stop using it and try to uninstall it. Using Ahrefs Site Audit as a reference, before installing Booster SEO and working on technical SEO my site audit score was an 89. Partly with Booster's help, as well as with manual technical SEO work (fixing broken links, adding manual 301 redirects, removing unnecessary webpages, etc.) that I did with my internal team we got this score up to a 99. However, after removing Booster SEO the score dropped to a 66 since Booster SEO removed my title tags on the way out, as well as undid the fixes that they made. They are transparent on undoing changes they made if you uninstall, but it looks like they will go even further than that and change things that they did not fix in the first place. So I would think long and hard about starting to use this app, and would recommend taking the time and effort to work on technical SEO manually which I think will pay off in the long run. The other issue with Booster is that the 301 redirects for broken links that Booster sets up are not very smart. All 301 redirects that Booster sets up automatically go to the homepage, which is not a great experience both from a user experience as well as apparently (according to my SEO agency) in Google's eyes. It would be a lot more valuable if Booster tried to guess what the most relevant page was to redirect to, and then the user could approve/disapprove these proposed 301 redirects.
Hi Kevin, Pat here from Booster Apps Support. We apologize for any inconvenience caused during the uninstallation process. When uninstalling Booster SEO, only the app's meta tags are removed, while the default meta tags from your theme remain intact. It is common for SEO apps to leave the theme's page title and meta description commented out for technical reasons. Additionally, our app creates a backup copy of your theme.liquid folder, allowing you to revert your theme back to its original state. Regarding the redirection of broken links, our Autopilot feature enables bulk editing of redirect destinations. This gives you the ability to specify the desired destination URL for each broken link, directing visitors to the most relevant pages on your website instead of the homepage. However, we'd be happy to look further into this for you. I have followed up with an email to you personally, in which we would be happy to hear from you and get to turn around your all-over experience using our app. Again, we sincerely apologize for this inconvenience. Regards, Pat

Upon deleting the app, my product page Tabs are set to "Facebook" for some reason. All my product pages, the tab says "Facebook". All my Meta data was gone upon deleting the app. For the homepage, it just displays the link on the tab. Before it the name of the store. This was NOT the case before installing this app. There are MANY other reviews who share the same experience. STAY AWAY! -- EDIT -- I was told the app doesn't "add any code" to my HTML and upon checking it DID! They literally LIED. Upon removing this code, my tab titles went back to normal. Still checking the other META DATA. Horrible app.
Hi TheMillenniumBride, Darrel here from Booster Apps. So sorry to hear that the meta title of your site changed to Facebook after uninstalling our app. Uninstalling our app should automatically re-enable your meta title from Shopify, however, looks like that is not the case here with your site's theme. We'd be happy to look further into this. In order to do that we'll need collaborator access to your shop so that we can check your theme's code, we've sent a collaborator request to your Shopify admin. Once you accept that request, please reply to the email we sent you so that we can fix this as soon as possible. Again, we sincerely apologize for this inconvenience. Regards, Darrel *Update May 2023:* Darrel here, Support Manager at Booster SEO! I just wanted to personally follow up with you and let you know our SEO Support team sent you an update email to help make things right and resolve this, but we haven’t heard back from you yet. Let us know if there’s anything we can help with – and you can reach us anytime at [email protected]

I'm sure the app works for many people but for me I didn't like the changes it made to my URL's. But the worst part was when I uninstalled the app it removed MOST of my ALT-Text from images which existed before the app was installed. I contacted support and there was nothing they could do other than apologise. It's not fair to offer an app that when the subscription is cancelled, it removes hours of hard work which was put in BEFORE the app was installed. I have about 300 images I need to go and add image text to now.
Hi Aaron Bryan here from Booster Apps Support. I read your recent app store review and we're so sorry to hear that you encountered issues whilst using our app to improve your SEO. Something I'd like to clarify is that our app does not remove your ALT text once uninstalled, the ALT text will remain if the app is uninstalled. However, we would like to investigate this and get to the bottom of what happened. I have followed up with an email to you personally, in which we would be happy to hear from you and get to turn around your all-over experience using our app. Looking forward to hearing from you. Regards, Bryan. *Update July 2023:* Darrel here, Support Manager at Booster SEO!

app installiert .nach einem tag war mein traffic weg.....so ein müll werde ich nie wieder installieren
Hi Jack, I'm sorry to hear that your traffic has dropped recently after installing our app. The purpose of our app is to improve your SEO (and therefore your traffic and sales) over time. However, I checked and noticed you had activated the paid features that have our SEO improvements about a week ago. Something to note is that any changes due to our app cannot have had any effect on your traffic or sales at this point. SEO improvement is a gradual, long-term process because of how Google and other search engines work. It takes Google up to several weeks to update its listings of your pages, so changes from the app do not immediately appear in Google results. It takes even longer for SEO to start making an impact on your site traffic and sales: 4 to 6 months on average, because of how search engines track SEO. So any changes due to our app cannot have had any effect on your traffic or sales at this point. We would like to help you in your SEO journey using our app and turn around your overall experience. I have followed up with an email to you personally and we are looking forward to hearing from you. Regards, Darrel *Update May 2023:* Darrel here, Support Manager at Booster SEO! I just wanted to personally follow up with you and let you know our SEO Support team sent you an update email to help make things right and resolve this, but we haven’t heard back from you yet.

We first ran in to issues when compressing out store images (it got stuck at about half way) - this was resolved by the dev team within a few days. Unfortunately we then ran in to a similar issue when renaming the alt tags of our images, it wasn't clear which images had been renamed and which hadn't andthe ap seemed to get stuck in a constant loop. We reached out to support who were particuarly unhelpful this time, however they did say we could have a refund. We've since emailed the support team requesting a refund, we haven't had a reply, wouldn't recommend.
Hi WiDEYE, Darrel here Support Manager from Booster Apps. I am so sorry that you encountered issues with our app. We did manage to fix the image compression issue but we didn't manage to get a chance to look into your image alt text issue, if you could reinstall the app we can definitely look into it. We will contact you on the existing support ticket that you have with us. Regarding the refund, I am afraid we can only issue refunds if it was already paid, however, since the charge is still unpaid, only Shopify can reverse this charge. We have gone ahead and sent a request to Shopify to reverse the charge, we will provide you an update as soon as we receive one from them. We want to turn around your experience with our app which is why we will look forward to your response to the email we will send you. *Update May 2023:* Darrel here, Support Manager at Booster SEO!

As a 14-year SEO, I've used many utilities for my own personal sites as well as for my clients. I had done in-depth research prior to suggesting this application to my client, this seemed to have been the best. However, I've experienced a series of failures on behalf of the team of Booster. Image compression only gets done one day out of the week, and as of now, my client has yet to get image compression done, even after many, many emails back and forth with the company. Many promises were made, but none were kept. My client depends on my work and my suggestions, and when a company I put faith in drops the ball, my agency's reputation is on the line. I've done my best to work with them on a number of related issues, but none have worked out. All these glam reviews you see are mostly from someone's "chat experience", and not the experience from the utility itself. I have had to work many hours each week to compensate for the lackluster utility, will be removing it the moment I get my client's site perfect again, within days. Lastly, do not use the URL optimization tool. This will create all new URLs and redirects. I never touched it, nor will I ever. If you do not keep the utility, you will have a nightmare of 404s to manage. Review from ZINC Digital of Miami- Kirk Musick, MS, MBA

Hi Waterkids Kids Surfboards & Paddle Boards, I read your recent app store review and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused. 😔 Regarding the payment for the app's plan, our app operates on a subscription basis. The reason your improvements do not "stick" when you uninstall the app is that the data cannot be stored by Shopify, but we must store them on our servers. The monthly subscription covers that and other costs associated with the app's ongoing functionality, such as monitoring your store for new and updated products, keeping your SEO code up to date, and funding support and development work on the app. Also when you uninstalled the app, it will only remove the meta tags created by the app and default meta tags from your theme will stay. There are cases when most SEO apps are uninstalled, the app can't auto-remove its code snippet because it no longer has access to your theme files. All SEO apps on the app store also leave the theme's page title and meta description commented out, for the same reason. Our app actually creates a backup copy of your theme.liquid folder, so that you can use it to revert your theme back to its state before you installed our app. I'm sorry if this was not more clear in our app's documentation. In case you need assistance in cleaning up these codes our support team is always available 24/7 to assist you on live chat and email. Moving forward, we'd really like to turn your negative experience around - we believe wholeheartedly in this app, and as the most-reviewed/used SEO app on the Shopify app store, people agree. SEO is definitely a long game, and although it's hard for stores to see instant results, it's something that takes time to work at over time. We hope to hear from you soon and get another chance to make a good impression Josh. Sincerely, Aroll

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP. It will destroy your store. It changed all the links for my products and caused broken links. When i contacted them about it i was told the app should not of done that and someone will contact me.right away. 2 days later they emailed me and said there is nothing they can do. So many better apps out there. Don’t risk your store.
Hi Honeypiekids, Thank you for your feedback. I read your recent app store review and we sincerely apologize if we didn't manage to resolve the issue sooner. 😔 Our app actually has the "Revert all" button that can revert all the changes it made with your product URLs. Please note that URL Optimization is a technique/process under which we optimize the URL structure of a website page in order to make the web page more understandable for search engine crawlers. Our URL optimization feature will change the URL of a product based on its product title. Because it changes the URL, if you have customers that have saved the previous URL and tried to access it, then it will lead to a 404 page or broken link. When a URL appears in Broken Links, it does not necessarily come from a broken link on your site. It just means that someone tried to visit that URL on your site, but there is no page for that URL - this is kinda expected if we will optimize a URL or change it, which is what URL Optimization does. Often the old links/URLs are on an entirely different site, which is the case if you used them for backlinks, which will also lead to 404 pages if you changed the URL. Whatever the cause of a broken link, no harm is done to your SEO as long as the nonexistent page has a redirect to an existing page on your site—and our app takes care of that automatically with our broken links redirect feature. 👍 Again, I am very sorry for the inconvenience this has caused. If you want to install the app again and give it another try, we will be more than happy to assist you with any of your concerns. We will be waiting for your response to the email we sent you.
