We post to your Google profile
This is the “content” line on your agency invoice. We write posts in your voice about your services and offers, then publish them for you — or wait for your okay. Every week, without the meeting.

The math on the retainer
Where your retainer
actually goes.
$24k
a year for a typical agency
That's $2,000 a month for a year — before the setup fee and the listing add-ons. Aaptly does the same work for $1,188 a year.
15:1
clients per account manager
Your account manager has fourteen other businesses to keep happy. Aaptly works on yours every day, and the work is visible in the dashboard.
5 min
to get started with Aaptly
No kickoff call, no six-week onboarding. Connect your Google account once and the weekly work starts the same day.
What you're actually paying for
The work an agency bills $2,000 for. Done for $99.
No kickoff call. No monthly PDF. No hour-long strategy meeting. We just do the work — and we only work on your business.
We reply to your reviews
Every review, not just the five-star ones. A warm thank-you for the good ones, a calm reply for the rough ones — all in your voice. You read it, you tap send.
We track where you rank
No monthly PDF. You get a live dashboard showing where you show up on Google for each search, who's above you, and what changed this week.
We fix your listings everywhere
Most agencies charge $300 to $500 a month extra for this. Here it's included. Your name, address, and phone stay identical everywhere Google checks, so nothing quietly drags you down.
We keep an eye on your competitors
We flag new competitors and show who Google's AI is quoting instead of you — the picture an agency saves for a slide deck, except you can open it any time.
We catch your missed calls
Your SEO agency never did this. When a call goes unanswered, we text the caller right back and capture what they need. (On the Pro plan.)

They cancelled the retainer. The rankings stayed.
Different businesses, same story: the agency work kept moving — without the invoice.
$2,400 → $99
Monthly SEO spend
We paid an agency $2,400 a month for a PDF and a quarterly call. Switched to Aaptly, kept the rankings, and put the difference back into the business. I should've done it a year ago.

Rank held
Top 3 after leaving the agency
I was scared the rankings would drop the second we cancelled. They didn't move. Turns out most of what the agency billed for was stuff Aaptly just does, automatically, every week.
Diego · Barbershop owner
Fired our agency
Month 2 on Aaptly
The agency worked on their schedule, not ours. Aaptly does the posts, the review replies, the listings — on our profile only, not split across fourteen other clients. Same work, none of the retainer.
Nadia · Med spa owner
No more PDFs
Live dashboard instead
Instead of waiting on a monthly report, I open the dashboard and see where I rank, my competitors, and what changed this week. First time the SEO actually felt like mine.

What owners ask
Before they fire their agency.
How can $99/mo replace a $2,000/mo agency?
An agency's real cost is people. You're mostly paying a junior account manager who's split across fifteen clients. The actual work — posting, listing sync, review replies, rank tracking — is repeatable growth work. Aaptly runs it for one business at a time, so the price drops about 95%.
What if my agency already does all this?
Compare the actual weekly work: posts, review replies, listing updates, rank tracking, and reporting. If your agency is genuinely great, keep them. We built this for everyone else who's paying retainer prices for junior-level work.
I'm not technical. Will I get stuck without an agency?
You'll be fine. Setup is a one-click Google connect and Aaptly takes it from there. Every plan comes with email and live chat support from real people if you get stuck. We built this for owners who'd rather run their business than stare at a dashboard.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No contract. You pay month to month and cancel whenever you want — the opposite of the usual 6-to-12-month agency lock-in. Start a 7-day free trial. We collect your card at the end of setup, but you won't be charged until day 8 — cancel anytime before then and you pay nothing.
What about results? Agencies promise rankings.
We do too, but here's the honest version. Cleaning up your profile and listings usually helps within days. Posting regularly and growing your reviews builds over a few weeks. The difference is you watch it happen on a live dashboard instead of waiting for a monthly PDF.
Will it work for more than one location?
Yes. Multiple locations are on the Growth plan ($349/mo). Each one gets its own feed and rank tracking, with all the reporting in one place — still a fraction of what an agency charges for the same thing.
No retainer. No long contract. No agency markup.
Drop the retainer.
Keep the rankings.
Posts, review replies, listing sync, and rank tracking — all the work an agency bills for, for $99 a month.
