About SEO Rating

We built the tool we kept wishing we had.

SEO Rating is a product of TheNextSprout, a Shopify and ecommerce agency. Every feature started as work we were doing by hand for client stores.

Why it exists

The same SEO work, store after store. Then a new question.

For years our team fixed the same problems on every Shopify store we touched: missing meta descriptions, empty alt text, broken schema, slow pages. It was important work, and almost all of it was repetitive.

Then merchants started asking something new: “Why doesn’t ChatGPT mention us?” Existing SEO tools only looked at Google. So we built one that looks at both.

  1. Before

    Done by hand

    Spreadsheets of products, meta tags written one at a time, schema pasted into theme files.

  2. Then

    Internal scripts

    We automated the audits and fixes for our own client work, and kept the review step.

  3. Now

    SEO Rating

    The same toolkit, packaged as a Shopify app, with AI search built in from day one.

What we believe

Four rules the app is built on

  1. 01Practitioners, not spectators

    If a feature didn’t survive real client work, it didn’t make it into the app.

  2. 02AI drafts, you decide

    AI is fast at meta tags and alt text. It doesn’t know your brand voice, so nothing publishes without your review.

  3. 03No promises we can’t keep

    Nobody can honestly guarantee rankings or AI citations. We make your store as ready as possible to earn them.

  4. 04Transparent usage

    AI costs are metered in credits you can see before you act. No surprise invoice.

Where we’re going

Shopify today. WordPress next.

The app is Shopify-only because that’s where we work. A WordPress and WooCommerce version is planned but not available yet. The waitlist on the home page is the honest version of that timeline.
