FAQ
What makes a good alternatives page?
It should explain why the buyer is switching, which replacement fits that reason and when not to switch.
Should free and cheap alternatives be separate?
Yes. Free means zero-budget workflow. Cheap means paid but lower-cost. Mixing them weakens intent match.
Why are some old synonym pages consolidated?
Thin synonym pages waste crawl attention and can split intent. Better alternatives pages should be stronger canonical pillars.
