What do we do each month on the Authority Plan?
- Everything in the Growth Plan, which includes the Foundation Plan
- Four new optimized pages or posts instead of two
- Local link building and digital PR outreach — the signal that separates page one from page two once on-page work is done
- Full technical and schema SEO: crawl issues, site speed, structured data across the whole site
- A monthly strategy call, not just a report
How does the Authority Plan work?
- Market review: we look at who ranks for your key terms and what they have that you do not.
- Technical fixes: crawl issues, speed and structured data are cleaned up site-wide first, so new content starts from a sound base.
- Content and links: four new pages or posts a month, plus local link and PR outreach to earn outside signals.
- Strategy call and report: each month we walk through what moved, what did not and what we change next.

Do you need the Authority Plan?
Most businesses do not, at least not at first. If nobody in your category is doing serious SEO locally, Growth at $720 will get you there and Authority is money spent early. Start with the free AI Visibility Report and we will tell you honestly which tier your market calls for.
What does the Authority Plan not promise?
No one can guarantee a ranking, a number of links or a mention in an AI answer, and we do not buy links or use link schemes. We promise the work above, done every month, and honest reporting on what it produced. Search engines typically take 60 to 90 days to react.
How is the Authority Plan billed?
Month to month, no contract. This checkout covers your first month; following months are invoiced by email until you cancel.
Frequently asked questions
What does the Authority Plan cost and what is included?
The Authority Plan is $1,200 a month, month to month with no contract. It includes everything in the Growth Plan, plus four new optimized pages or posts a month instead of two, local link building and digital PR outreach, full technical and schema SEO across the whole site, and a monthly strategy call rather than only a report.
Who actually needs the Authority Plan instead of Growth?
Businesses fighting for terms where several established competitors already rank, such as Naples aesthetics, Fort Myers contractors or any category with a corporate chain in the results. Most businesses do not need it at first. If nobody in your category is doing serious local SEO, the $720 Growth Plan will usually get you there and Authority would be money spent early.
What is local link building and digital PR?
It means earning links and mentions for your website from real local sources, such as community organizations, local publications, suppliers and partner businesses. Once on-page work is done, these outside signals are often what separates page one from page two in competitive markets. We do outreach for you and report on what was earned; we do not buy links or use link schemes.
How long does the Authority Plan take to show results?
Competitive markets move slowly. Expect about 60 to 90 days before the first movement and several months for link and content work to compound. We report every month and use the strategy call to adjust the plan based on what the data shows. No one can promise a specific ranking, and we will not.
How do I know which plan to start with?
Start with the free AI Visibility Report. It shows where you stand across Google and AI assistants, and we will tell you honestly which tier your market calls for. Many businesses start on Foundation at $360 or Growth at $720 and move to Authority only if competitors are heavily invested. All plans are month to month.
