Link Detox vs. UpCity

The go-to link risk management tool

For our purposes, UpCity is well suited to our small business clients that are looking to improve their SEO. We have had a good partnership with UpCity to provide consulting and copywriting services for local search, social media and reputation management for our clients, and their software and reporting helps us show ROI to our clients.

• Customized marketing checklist is incredible!
• The way UpCity verifies items in your marketing checklist (like whether you have social accounts, you're on Google, etc,) helps my business, and others, save precious time having to manually verify them yourself.
• I love the impact scores and estimated time shown on each task to give us a feel of how much we are doing each month and what value that time spent is.
• The "about" and "how to" section on tasks makes it very clear how to accomplish each task.

• None that I can think of.

• Unwillingness to help dissatisfied customers
• Unwillingness to address issues
• False advertising regarding the number of click throughs and leads
• Rude customer service reps that don’t help with your issues
• Expensive service
• Little value for money

Usability is mediocre: They have a dashboard to track things but they have some antiquated system of ranking companies and don’t tell you what the logic is behind it. You also have no way to combat negative ratings or respond and try to correct them.

I received little help from customer service rep, Sarah. She told me I should speak to a manager to “reset my expectations”. Apparently, all the sales promises of more traffic and increase SEO were an issue with my expectations, and not the company failing to deliver.

Link Detox has no alternatives

We selected UpCity primarily because of the ongoing services they provide. The UpCity software is a simple platform that enables us to easily show progress and ROI to our clients.

• It helped me remove manual penalties which makes a huge impact on rankings
• Keeping the websites safe for future penalty reviews and updates
• Having the websites rank good and protect them from penalties is a big ROI

• UpCity was costly for us because we were small. If we were a 10 person agency, the price would be right in line with what we need.
• UpCity has taught us many processes we needed to continue helping our clients be successful.
