At the moment I use tree extensions that are SEO related: - Fix 404 error links by Web357. I use this extension for redirection pages and an error 404 page- Easy Frontend SEO by Victo Vogel. In use to control relevant metadata in the frontend- OSMeta by Joomlashack. In use to control page titles, meta descriptions and URLs for all my articles
With the upgrade to Joomla 4 I want to replace these extensions by one extension, but I'm not sure which one of your extensions will be the best in my situation: 4SEO or sh404sef. Which one would you advise me?
Short break for holiday season
The holiday season is with us and we'll be off from December 25, 2025 and back on January 5nd, 2026.
Don't forget to look up the documentation, including the videos, your answer may already be there! Likewise, be sure to check the Development versions area, in case your problem may already have been solved.
In case of emergency (ie your site is down with a fatal error directly linked to one of our extensions), please contact us by email (see contact icon at the bottom of all pages of this site).
All the best to your and your family! See you around in 2026!

I red that only 4SEO is available for J4 (for hudge price).What I miss in the documentation of 4SEO is the 404 error page that was part of sh404sef. Is that also avalilable in 4SEO?

Hi
but I'm not sure which one of your extensions will be the best in my situation: 4SEO or sh404sef. Which one would you advise me?
sh404SEF will not be ported to Joomla 4. Instead if will be replaced with another extension, called 4SEF. 4SEF will only do SEF URLs. All the SEO features in sh404SEF are now taken over - and vastly improved - by 4SEO, including front-end meta data management which did not exist in sh404SEF.
Please read our blog post on our extensions and Joomla 4 here for all details.
I red that only 4SEO is available for J4
This is incorrect, 4SEO works exactly the same on Joomla 3 and Joomla 4. Where did you read this??
(for hudge price)
Huge price? quite the contrary, I specifically made 4SEO to have a very low price. 4SEO subscription is $95/year. On a typical SEO-oriented site, it replaces: JSItemap Pro (about $60), Google Structured Data By Tassos (about $70), ReReplacer by RegularLabs (about $50) and alsso multiple features from sh404SEF ($44, OpenGraph, redirections, meta data management,...)
.What I miss in the documentation of 4SEO is the 404 error page that was part of sh404sef. Is that also avalilable in 4SEO?
It's not currently but will be in version 1.5 to be released on November 4. I am working on this feature as we speak:
It's already working on Joomla 3&4 and will be ready in a few days (development versions are always available to subscribers). It is also an improved version, easier to use and much more flexible than that in sh404SEF.

Thank you very much for you reply! I think 4SEO and 4SEF are very useful extensions! As soon as I have upgraded to Joomla 4 I will purchase these extensions!
