SEO tools
Some of you crafty fellows are presumably knowledgeable on this.
Lots of tools exist to do a static analysis on what's good/bad like Google's PageSpeed.
The SEO analysis flavoured tools seem quite expensive though. e.g. ahrefs 99 USD pm.
Bit heavy for someone getting started. How do others approach this? I'm guess I'm not the only one interested but not ready to spend 1k+ a year on this

Nowadays, one designs a website for either of two audience.
You either design for bots or humans.
You don't design a website for both because, if a site is good at #2, #1 follows.

There is 1 SEO tool that works beyond any other, and I mean like magnitudes better and that is quality and varied evolving genuine content.
There are some platforms that are more friendly than others.

they always identify themselves correctly and they give you an option to opt out/present you a list of IPs to block, also they won't crawl your server at ludicrous speeds. There's way worse.
That's usually true and I'm such old school to believe it to be true, yet (especially for sites not structured as forums, blogs and the like) one has to at least choose their words carefully since there won't be a constant flux of content. Some tools may help in this venture, even if I generally agree that rem tene, verba sequentur
Some tools also let you give a peep at competitors and trends in your area. I've seen objective results for a quite large firm (I don't do SEO myself) which was indeed penalised from a previous management even if they were dropping 800€/mo for a simple "premium" listing via an exclusive yext partner (no ads)+ a simple B2B CRM (a tool that identified businesses looking at their page even if they bounced, so they had a chance to consider to cold-call them). Problem was that nobody curated jack shit about the actual text on their listing, not to mention their social profiles.
Some people like to continuously sign up for demos indefinitely in order to get the demo price... You'd be better imho to
That's why professional figures like "SEO specialist" or "Social media manager" thrive: it's a time-consuming activity
Some analytics (self-hosted or not, professional or not) may give you some deeper insight; yet too much data you don't have a use for could be a waste of time
I've tried the monetization first, content 2nd route. Unsurprisingly that went nowhere.
So looking at doing it right this time - content first. But doing it right extends to SEO optimised too. I'd like it if people actually see the content
Plus I opted for something a bit more hardcore than WP - wagtail - so the usual training wheels aren't there. I could use a tool to look at that...but spending 10x as much on the SEO tool vs everything else also doesn't make sense.
Might do that once. But repeatedly rolling demo doesn't sit right with me personal ethics wise.
There are many group buy tool options available. You can get ahref @ ~10 USD per month I guess....
