# YTCount vs YouSEO

The clearest difference is review sentiment: YouSEO at 82% against YTCount's 31%. YouSEO also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). YTCount's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (3.8K vs 53). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. YTCount sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and YouSEO sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

YouSEO holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: YTCount has 3.8K ratings behind it against 53, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 31% of YTCount's written reviews are positive against 82% of YouSEO's.

YTCount ships an update every 2 months, YouSEO fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
