Local 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/year to $999/year. The package that provides the highest number of features is the $999/year package. Our offering that surpasses this package is offered at a fixed rate of only $75/month.

If your business has multiple locations we can handle that too. We offer additional locations at $50/mo saving you even more. The biggest caveat to our service is that its a month to month contract versus having to lay out $999 at one time which can be cost prohibitive to a small business owner.

Local SEO Benefits

Full Contact’s Local Optimization Tool was created with the intention of making local marketing easier for business owners. Focus more on running your business by letting us focus on expanding your digital presence.

Our cancellation policy is truly advantageous for you in this regard. We do not revert any of your listings back to the old information when you cancel our services. The listings stay as is. That’s our promise. However, Yext doesn’t promise you this.

And the major benefit is that you can save thousands with Full Contact over Yext in the long run. This money can be utilized for any other arm of your business process, expansion or marketing.
