    Moz is just as good as Yext, the only major difference is the size of the network.

    Moz Local is a great alternative as well as a compliment to Yext. The service has a smaller network but is just as powerful. The dashboard is super easy to load your location information into and allows the product to do the work by distributing the data across platforms. Issues are easily identifiable and can easily be corrected. Depending on your service level package, you also can have access to reviews and be able to monitor those as you see fit. I would strongly recommend this service to anyone who has a local business they are looking to get seen across the web. For a larger business, I'd consider a larger company with a bigger network.

    Yoast Wordpress SEO Plugins is really great for any application - home pages, blogs, etc. It saves a lot of time researching keywords, but it is time-consuming crafting content, which I think is a necessary evil. I wasn't really seeing the immediate results I had hoped for, but there could be a variety of reasons for that (cookies, caches, etc.). Overall, if you have the time to dedicate and utilize the tool, it's awesome!

    Cons

    • Expansion of network.
    • Needs to be easier to access, too many clicks within Moz suite.
    • Generally speaking, they are solid.

    • Density: Because even the free, basic Yoast SEO tool has SO MANY FEATURES, if you're brand new to SEO as a concept/practice, you might feel a little overwhelmed at first. Just go watch the training videos!
    • Bulk Title Editing: I'm sure this tool can be useful, but I've never found it to be particularly intuitive or helpful.
    • Limitations: I'm grasping at straws here, but it would be nice if some of the premium (paid) features- specifically the social media previews- were available in the free version. Like I said, grasping.

    It's super easy to use. Really, it requires little-to-know tutorials or walkthroughs at all — it explains everything you need to know in the description and tooltips built straight into the tool. I've never had to google a how-to or tutorial to use Yoast — it just works, and it works well

    There are plenty of amazing articles published on their site, however, I don't rate their actual support team as being particularly helpful. I made multiple points of contact regarding the internal link counter not working and even though they began troubleshooting I think when it became too hard it was just forgotten about and so is still unresolved.

    This is my go-to plugin for SEO. It is easy, and I trust Yoast will give me solid results. In a short time period, our website has seen measurable results in organic search traffic. Our previous website didn't use page level SEO tools to this extent. We are systematically updating each page using the Yoast WordPress SEO Plugin. We are pleased with the results

    • Yoast Wordpress SEO Plugin along with other SEO investments we have made with our new website has extremely paid off on new business opportunity creation. Since August 2018 we have added over $100K of new business opps solely sourced from SEO searches on pages and posts that Yoast has helped us optimize.
    • Yoast Wordpress SEO Plugin saves our marketing team a lot of time. Since the plugin lives in WordPress and provides live tips we can make to the page or post, our team doesn't have to guess on what keyword, or meta-tag, or how many internal and external links a page or post should have using an additional platform. It is just conveniently there for us to use regularly.
    • Yoast Wordpress SEO Plugin cannot be the only piece of software your website relies on to obtain SEO optimization with search engines. It is a piece of the puzzle, and you can only maximize its' value by making sure your website is scam free, the code under the hood is healthy, and the load time and page weight is light.

    Moz Local Screenshots

    Screenshot of GeoRank, which offers a precise view of how a business and competitors rank in Google’s local search results across different neighborhoods. Because search results change based on a person’s location, traditional rank tracking doesn’t show the full picture. With GeoRank, you can set grids around your service area, track keyword rankings at multiple points, and visualize performance on interactive maps. See where you’re winning, where competitors outrank you, and how your visibility changes over time. GeoRank helps uncover opportunities to strengthen local SEO and expand a brand's reach.Screenshot of Insights in Moz Local, which connect directly with a Google Business Profile to show how customers are finding and engaging with a business. Track key actions like website clicks, direction requests, and phone calls to understand how listing drives leads over time. See which search keywords bring people to a profile, spot trends, and uncover opportunities to improve visibility. Insights offer a deeper look at customer behavior.Screenshot of Listings AI, which helps to keep a business's listings optimized as markets, competitors, and customer behaviors change. By analyzing reviews, engagement signals, keywords, and competitor data, it generates tailored recommendations that follow SEO best practices and align with local search trends. You’ll see suggestions for categories, services, and attributes—each with clear impact metrics—so you know which updates will boost visibility. It is available with Elite plans (or as an add-on for Lite and Preferred).Screenshot of Locations in Moz Local, where users manage and update business details to keep listings accurate and consistent across the web. From one dashboard, you can edit core information like name, address, hours, services, categories, and attributes, as well as upload images and add custom fields. Auto-sync ensures changes are pushed to directories automatically, saving you time and preventing errors. You can also view edit history, set warnings to avoid duplicate content, and group locations for easier management.Screenshot of Networks in Moz Local. which offers a centralized view of all the directories, social platforms, and review sites a business can connect to. From here, you can see which locations are linked, ready to link, or need updates, and quickly manage connections across platforms like Google, Facebook, and Yelp. The Networks table shows linking status and highlights any missing data or issues.Screenshot of Reviews Sentiment in Moz Local, which helps understand how customers feel about a business by analyzing the language used in their reviews. Track sentiment trends over time, see top keywords driving positive or negative feedback, and explore interactive word clouds to quickly spot themes. With color-coded insights and keyword-level detail, you can identify what customers love, uncover areas for improvement, and take action to strengthen your reputation.
