Where RankAutomatic is different
We run your local SEO. Nothing ships without your OK.
RankAutomatic covers the website too: a full SEO crawl, structured data, and AI-written service pages and blog posts, not only the GBP.
Citation Builder is one build of 300+ listings per location, submitted by hand, with every login handed to you and checks at delivery, 30 and 90 days. Never an automated citation blast.
You see each post, reply and page before it goes live, and you choose which channels run on autopilot.
