## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. Moz Local sends your business details to more than 90 directories, keeps them synced and maps your map pack rankings on a grid, from $16 a location a month on yearly billing. There's no free plan or trial, each location is its own subscription, and listings only work for businesses in the US, UK and Canada.

- **Value for money: B.** Lite is $16 a location a month on yearly billing ($199 a year), $20 monthly, right at this category's cheaper quarter ($16). It's per location, though, so three shops are three subscriptions, and review replies need Preferred at $24.
- **Free plan and trial: F.** Nothing free. Moz Local has no free plan, and the pricing page shows no trial for it; the trial Moz advertises is for Moz Pro.
- **Features: C.** Listings on 90+ directories, a Local Grid of map pack rankings, review monitoring and data health reports. The gaps are in the listing: rankings come only from the grid, listings work in just three countries, and Lite can't reply to reviews.
- **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. You enter each location's details and connect Google and Facebook before listings and reviews start flowing in.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, with no desktop or phone app. It connects to Google Business Profile, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and TikTok for listings, reviews and posting.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Moz Local you would be making listings sent to dozens of directories and map apps, which takes an agreement with each. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 34 of the 61 other local SEO tools grade higher. It costs $192 a year.

- You could make: Review collection and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: Listings sent to dozens of directories and map apps, which takes an agreement with each.
- You could not: Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Google Business Profile, Facebook and Instagram among them.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
