SiteSeed vs. AutoSEO

SiteSeed vs. AutoSEO: which fits the work?

SiteSeed and AutoSEO both study your site, plan a month of articles and publish one a day for businesses with no SEO hire. SiteSeed removes a sentence that states a figure, a source or a name neither its research nor the product's own page could confirm, refreshes its own articles that slip, checks every week whether Perplexity cites you, and starts free. AutoSEO adds backlinks from its other customers on every plan and hosts a blog for you if your site has none.

Best for

SiteSeed starts free and then costs $29/month for 30 researched articles on one site, where AutoSEO is $149/month for 30, or $99/month billed yearly. AutoSEO suits a small business that wants backlinks from its customer network in the plan, or has no blog yet and wants one hosted.

Pricing context

SiteSeed starts free, Starter is $29/month for 30 articles on one site, and Pro is $79/month for 90 articles across 3 sites. AutoSEO sells the same features on two terms: Monthly at $149/month for 30 articles, and Annual at $99/month, billed $1,188 a year, both with backlinks from its other customers. A trial is 3 days for $1, with a 7-day money-back guarantee on Monthly and 30 days on Annual. Its page shows $149 beside a struck-through $400 and says the price rises to $199 for new customers soon. Each site needs its own plan.

After publishing

Reads Google Search Console every week and proposes a refresh for its own articles that slip or sit just off page one, or plans it by itself once you switch that on. Same address, with the last 3 versions kept to restore.

Monitors the backlinks it builds and replaces one that drops, with reporting on links, content and rankings. No refresh of published articles is listed.

How the workflows differ

SiteSeed starts from your website: paste it, review the brief it drafts, let the calendar run on Autopilot or plan it by hand, and open a report showing what published and whether AI assistants cited it. After that it reads Search Console each week, adds the searches you have no article for, and refreshes the articles that slip. AutoSEO studies your site, competitors and Search Console, lays out a month of articles, publishes one a day, and places links to your site on its other customers' sites.

Frequently asked questions

Which is cheaper for one website?
SiteSeed has a free plan with 3 articles a month, and Starter is $29/month for 30 articles on one site. AutoSEO is $149/month for 30 articles, or $99/month billed $1,188 a year, after a 3-day trial for $1. Its plans include backlinks, which SiteSeed does not offer.
Which is cheaper for more than one site?
SiteSeed Pro covers 3 sites and 90 articles for $79/month. AutoSEO puts each site on its own plan, at $149/month per site. SiteSeed's plans stop at three sites; beyond that it quotes a custom plan.
What happens after an article is published?
AutoSEO keeps building backlinks to your site, monitors them and replaces one that drops; its site lists no refresh of published articles. SiteSeed reads Search Console every week: searches your site shows up for with no article go into the keyword backlog, and its own articles that slip or sit just off page one get a refresh on the calendar, at the same address, with the last 3 versions kept. SiteSeed refreshes on its own only after you switch that on.
Why doesn't SiteSeed include backlinks?
SiteSeed does not run link exchanges on your site or your clients' sites. Google's spam policies count excessive link exchanges as link spam, so SiteSeed keeps to on-site work (research, writing, publishing and citation checks) and leaves link building to your own judgment. AutoSEO's backlinks come from its other customers' sites.
What if I don't have a blog yet?
AutoSEO will host a blog for you for free and handle the setup. SiteSeed does not host sites: it publishes to a site you already run, through WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, Ghost, Wix, HubSpot, Notion or a webhook, or you copy the finished article.
