Are Claude SEO skills free?

By GEO Search Console Published

Many Claude SEO skills are free, and both of ours are: the organization schema skill and the Common Crawl check skill download as ZIP files with no sign-up, no account and no API key.

What can cost money is the data a skill calls, not the skill file itself. This page is part of our free Claude SEO skills guide.

What our free Claude SEO skills cost

Our free Claude SEO skills cost nothing at any step: the download, the install and every run after that.

The organization schema skill builds the markup from your answers, and it reads your site only when you give it the address. Its free twin in the browser is our organization schema generator, which runs the same checks.

The Common Crawl check reads Common Crawl's index and archive, which are free to anyone. Common Crawl is a nonprofit, and it gives its crawl data away. Neither skill asks for a key, a login or a card.

Where Claude SEO skills can cost money

Claude SEO skills can cost money in two places: the plan you run them on, and any paid data service a skill's script calls.

  • The assistant. Skills work on Claude's Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans, according to Claude's Help Center, so you can try ours without paying for Claude.
  • Paid data. SE Ranking's SEO skills need an SE Ranking account with API access, and each call spends API credits.
  • Free packs. Hawk Academy's Claude SEO skills are free single files with no email asked. Claude SEO by Agrici Daniel and Marketing Skills by Corey Haines are on GitHub under the MIT license.

A skill that only gives Claude instructions costs nothing extra. A skill whose script calls a paid service costs whatever that service charges.

How to check if a Claude SEO skill is free

To check if a Claude SEO skill is free, read its SKILL.md and its scripts before you install it.

Look for an API key it asks for, an account it needs, or the address of a paid service in the script.

Ours are easy to read: each ZIP holds one folder with a SKILL.md, a few reference notes and one Python script.
