Google Maps SEO Pricing
The major factor when it comes to investing in software for your business is price. We understand this and our pricing reflects this sentiment.
Yext has different packages starting from $199 to $999 per year. The package that provides the highest number of features is the $999 package. Our offering that surpasses this package is offered at a fixed rate of only $75 per month.
If your business has multiple locations we can handle that too. We offer additional locations at $50 per month saving you even more. The biggest caveat to our service is that it is a month to month contract versus having to lay out $999 at one time which can be cost prohibitive to a small business owner.
