Yext Fixes Your Listings for Good?

from Smoke & Receipts

The pitch says pay for Yext and your listings are fixed for good. Marcus brings the price per location, what happens to the listings when you stop paying, and the cheaper ways to build citations you keep. 43% of businesses have a wrong phone, address or name somewhere online. Yext pushes the right info to 70+ directories and locks it. The lock is rented. Self-serve Yext runs about $199 to $999 a year, per location. Ten years on the top plan is almost $10,000 for one shop. When the payments stop, the lock comes off. One Whitespark audit of 60 Yext listings found 15 gone and 21 back to wrong info after the subscription ended. Cheaper routes: claim them yourself for free with the Citations module on learn.clickflame.com, pay once for a citation builder like BrightLocal at about $3.20 a site, or use Semrush Local Pro at $60 a month per location if you want a dashboard. Yext still fits 10+ locations, franchises and regulated industries. Clickflame is a certified Yext partner and runs a free directory scan.
