How we compare

Choosing a white-label local SEO and AEO partner is hard to undo once your clients are on it. These are the questions we would ask any provider, including us, with our own answers. Every answer below is something we publish on this site and stand behind.

1. Are the prices published?

Ours are. $549 a month for one location in a normal market. $949 a month for busy markets, or for a business with up to four locations. More than four, we price it with you. See Pricing.

2. Is there a setup fee, a long-term commitment or a minimum?

No setup fee, no long-term commitment and no minimum number of clients. Every campaign is month-to-month. Cancel at the end of any month and that month's report still goes out. See our cancellation policy.

3. Is AI search included, or sold as an add-on?

Included in every plan. Every month we ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Google's AI Mode and Claude the questions your client's customers ask, and check whether they name your client. See AI search.

4. How is ranking measured?

Ask whether a provider checks rankings from one spot or across the whole service area. We run map grid scans across the service area, plus keyword rank checks, with our own tools every month, so a win in one corner of town cannot hide a loss everywhere else.

5. What decides the work each month?

We audit every client from scratch every month, on live data, and the audit sets next month's task list. See the monthly audit.

6. Is there a fixed order of work?

Every client goes through the same ten steps in the same order: measure first, stop the leaks, convert, then bring more people in. We do not send more visitors to a website that is not ready to turn them into calls. See our process.

7. How much work do I get each month?

Ask for a number, not "ongoing optimization." Our Standard plan is 840 credits of work a month, and Competitive is 1,680. A credit is our unit of work, priced at the time a skilled person would need to do each job by hand. See What is a credit?

8. Will my client ever hear the provider's name?

Not ours. Everything we produce carries your brand. We never contact your clients, and we never approach them to work with us directly.

9. Can I see the work before I sign?

Yes. Send us one business and you get a free white-label sales audit within 3 business days. See Free sales audit.

10. Does the provider promise rankings?

Be careful with any that do. Nobody controls Google's rankings or what an AI tool says. We do not guarantee rankings. We commit to doing the work for your plan, tracking it, and reporting on it honestly every month.
