Step by step

From WordPress.org to your first combined audit

  1. 1

    Install Aetos SEO Lite

    In WordPress, open Plugins → Add New, search for “Aetos SEO”, and install the official free plugin from WordPress.org. Activate it. Lite is the required core plugin and stays active after you add Pro.

  2. 2

    Upload the Pro add-on

    After purchase, download the Aetos SEO Pro ZIP from your order email. In wp-admin go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, choose the Pro ZIP, then Install Now and Activate.

  3. 3

    Activate your license

    Keep both Aetos SEO and Aetos SEO Pro active. Open Aetos SEO → Pro Status, paste your license key, and choose Activate License. Pro adds its modules and reports to the same Aetos interface.

  4. 4

    Run your first audit

    Open Aetos SEO → Dashboard and start a crawl. Then open Findings to see every issue ranked by priority. Scan time varies with site size, hosting, and the depth you select.

Install FAQ

Does Aetos replace Yoast or Rank Math? +

No. Aetos runs alongside them. They write your titles, meta, and schema; Aetos audits everything — including the AI-readiness layer they don't score. Keep both.

Will it slow my site down? +

The audit runs in the background on a schedule (WP-Cron) and on demand. It is admin-only tooling — it adds nothing to your public pages and ships no front-end assets to visitors.

One license, how many sites? +

Pro is one domain. The Agency tier covers 5 domains with white-label PDF reports. The key is checked per domain, so a staging-to-production move just needs a quick re-activation.

How do updates work? +

Lite updates from WordPress.org. The separate Pro add-on updates inside WordPress through the licensed, signature-verified Pro updater. Both remain installed and active.
