The short answer

Is ItNirman SEO a good Squirrly SEO alternative?

Squirrly SEO has more than 30,000 installs and a free version that already includes a live writing assistant, llms.txt, AI-crawler control, a GEO and AEO audit and IndexNow plus Google Indexing API submissions. Its cloud tools need a free Squirrly account. Paid plans are metered: PRO is $19.99 a month billed annually for 5 sites, with limits such as 25 focus pages, 50 AI keyword researches and 100 audit pages a month. Checking rankings directly in search results needs the higher Web Dev Kit or Business plans.

What it costs

What You Pay Per Year

In US dollars. Squirrly lists monthly prices; PRO is labelled billed annually, so we show about $240 a year. The page does not clearly state the billing period for the other plans.

Switching

Moving From Squirrly SEO to ItNirman SEO

  1. Test on a staging copy. Addresses ending in .local or .test never use a licence slot.
  2. Note your Squirrly settings. Write down titles, descriptions, schema, redirects and any llms.txt you edited, so you can compare afterwards.
  3. Check what can be imported. ItNirman SEO imports directly from Yoast SEO and Rank Math. For Squirrly, plan manual checking of titles, descriptions and schema.
  4. Deactivate Squirrly. A warning shows while two SEO plugins are active, to prevent duplicate tags.

Features that exist only in Squirrly, such as AI keyword research and its cloud SERP checker, will not carry over.
