Best Moz Local Alternatives (2026): Listings Tools Compared, Plus One for Google Rankings

Moz Local does one job well: it pushes your business name, address and phone number to data aggregators and directories, keeps them consistent, and helps clean up duplicates. Most people searching for a Moz Local alternative fall into one of two groups:

1. They want another listings tool, usually for price, directory coverage, or agency features.
2. They realize their real problem is visibility on Google, not directory accuracy, and want a tool that works on their Google Business Profile and map rankings.

This guide covers both.

Moz Local at a glance (as of 2026)

• Plans: Lite, Preferred and Elite, sold per location. Third-party reviews widely report about $199, $299 and $399 per location per year on annual billing. Check moz.com for current rates.
• Strengths: affordable listings distribution, duplicate detection, part of the Moz SEO ecosystem.
• Gaps: no grid-based map rank tracking, no AI review replies or AI posts.

For pricing detail, how duplicate suppression works, and how cancellation affects your listings, see our Moz Local comparison page.

Before you cancel Moz Local

When a Moz Local subscription ends, Moz tells its partners the listing is no longer under management. Listings are not deleted, but enhanced content can drop off and some duplicates may come back over time. Before switching:

• Export your listings report so you know where you are listed.
• Claim your profiles directly on the major sites: Google, Bing Places, Apple Business Connect, Facebook and Yelp.
• Note the duplicates Moz suppressed so you can check them later.

Listings alternatives

Yext

The largest listings network, built for enterprise brands. Priced per location per year under annual contracts, and noticeably more expensive than Moz Local. Strong if you have many locations and a marketing team. MyAds.Guru vs Yext and our Yext alternatives guide.

BrightLocal

Citation building as a paid service, plus audits, rank tracking and white-label reporting for agencies. Better than Moz Local if you want citations built manually on industry and local sites, not just pushed through aggregators. MyAds.Guru vs BrightLocal.

Whitespark

Known for hand-built citations and its Citation Finder. A good choice if you want specific niche directories, not only the big networks. MyAds.Guru vs Whitespark.

Semrush Local

Listing distribution to 150+ directories on its Pro plan (about $60 per location per month as of 2026), plus reviews and a Map Rank Tracker. Best if you already use Semrush. MyAds.Guru vs Semrush Local.

Synup

Agency-oriented listings, reviews and social, priced by location count: $49/month for one location up to $899/month for 50, as of 2026. MyAds.Guru vs Synup and our Synup alternatives guide.

If your real goal is ranking on Google: MyAds.Guru

Consistent citations support local SEO, but for most local businesses the bigger levers are the Google Business Profile itself: categories, regular posts, review volume and replies, and knowing where you rank across your service area.

MyAds.Guru works on exactly that: AI-written Google posts, AI review replies, Q&A, profile health checks, and GeoGrid rank tracking that shows where you rank block by block. Google Ads and GA4 reporting sit in the same dashboard.

To be clear about the trade-off: MyAds.Guru is not a listings-sync tool. If you need directories handled too, our team offers done-for-you citation building as a separate managed service.

Pricing: a 7-day free trial with no card, then plans from $29/month.
