Schema Generator Better Than Yoast — 90+ Types on Any Website

Yoast is the most recognised name in WordPress SEO. For basic schema markup on a WordPress blog it is adequate. For a local business that needs complete LocalBusiness schema with Maps wiring, GBP links, 20 social profiles, AEO fields and a built-in debugger — it is simply not the right tool. Here is the honest comparison.

What Yoast does with schema markup

Yoast automatically adds Organisation and WebSite schema to WordPress sites. The free version includes basic schema for articles and web pages. Advanced schema types — LocalBusiness, Product, Recipe, Event and others — require Yoast Premium at £99+ per year per site.

Even on Premium, Yoast generates schema through form-based input. You select the type and fill in every field manually. It does not read your page content and auto-detect your business type. It does not wire your Google Business Profile URL, Google Maps link or UK directory sameAs links automatically. It does not have a built-in schema debugger.

And it is WordPress only. If your site is on Wix, Squarespace, Shopify or a custom build, Yoast does not exist for you.

How we compare to Yoast

90+ schema types versus roughly 15 on Yoast Premium. Auto-detection from your live page versus manual form filling. Any website versus WordPress only. Full Maps, GBP and social profile wiring versus basic LocalBusiness. Built-in debugger scoring 0-100 versus no debugger. AEO fields for AI search engines versus no AEO section. From 8p per run versus £99+ per year per site.

The pricing difference alone is significant. If you generate and update your schema twice a year, you pay 16p with us. With Yoast Premium you pay £99 whether you use the schema feature once or a hundred times.

When Yoast is the right choice

Yoast is a reasonable choice if you are on WordPress and want all your SEO settings (meta titles, sitemaps, breadcrumbs, social sharing) managed in one plugin with a familiar interface. As a WordPress SEO plugin it is solid.

For schema generation specifically — particularly for local businesses, any non-WordPress site, or anyone who needs LocalBusiness depth beyond the basics — it is not the right tool.
