27local vs Moz Local

Moz Local is a listings utility. It syncs your name, address, and phone to a directory network. 27local is what you open after the listing is correct: the site, the grid, the inbox, and the posts.

What 27local offers that Moz Local does not

  • More than a listing sync

    Moz Local’s job is distribution. 27local’s job is growth: website, reviews, rank grid, keywords, Google posts, and AI visibility.

  • A rank grid you can act on

    Moz Local does not replace a neighbourhood grid. 27local shows where you rank, then unlocks badges when the average qualifies.

  • Reviews as a workflow

    Moz Local can watch listings. 27local drafts the reply and keeps the inbox off your Saturday.

  • One price for three businesses

    Moz Local is per location. Growth Pack is $49 a month for up to three businesses, including the site.

27local vs Moz Local: feature by feature

Moz Local is a clean listings add-on. It is not a local growth OS. That is the whole comparison.

Why local businesses pick 27local over Moz Local

  • A listing is not a plan.

    Correct NAP is table stakes. Customers still pick the business with the site, the photos, the replies, and the Maps rank.

  • Moz Pro does not come in the Local box.

    Keyword and site tools live on Moz Pro, another bill. 27local puts keywords, technical health, and the grid next to the profile.

  • Three businesses, one Growth Pack.

    A second location on Moz Local is another line. On 27local it is still $49 a month, up to three.

27local vs Moz Local: what you actually pay

Moz Local can be cheap per pin if listings are the only job. The moment you need a site and an inbox, the stack costs more than Growth Pack.

Frequently asked questions

Is 27local a Moz Local alternative?

Yes if you want more than listing sync. Moz Local is still a reasonable listings-only utility.

Does 27local replace Moz Pro?

Not for national SEO research. For a local shop, 27local covers keywords, technical issues, and competitors without a second Moz seat.

How does pricing compare?

Growth Pack is $49 a month or $490 a year for up to three businesses. Moz Local is commonly listed from about $16 to $33 per location per month.

There are two of us at the restaurant, so nobody here had time to learn SEO. 27local told us in plain words what was missing on our Google profile, rebuilt our page, and now we come up first when someone searches for a restaurant in our street. Saturdays are fully booked again.
