Frequently Asked Questions

No. RankForge runs month-to-month. Cancel anytime. No long-term commitment, no early-termination fees.

Both plans include the same weekly analysis and plain-English report. On Managed, RankForge implements every fix for you: meta tags, content updates, directory corrections, all of it. On Self-Serve, you get the same report with clear, step-by-step instructions, and your team makes the changes.

Only for the Managed plan, and only what's needed to make approved updates. On Self-Serve, no access is required. You're handling implementation.

Those are dashboards you have to log into, interpret, and act on yourself. RankForge does the watching and the interpreting for you, and delivers a plain-English report to your inbox every week. No dashboard, no login, no learning curve.

AI search means how your business shows up in tools like ChatGPT, Google's AI Overviews, and Perplexity, not just traditional Google results. More customers are starting their search there instead of a search bar, and most small businesses have no idea whether they're visible in those results at all. RankForge tracks and optimizes for both traditional and AI search, so you're not blind to where a growing share of your customers are actually looking.

SEO and AI search visibility improve over weeks, not days. Most clients see meaningful movement within 60–90 days. You'll get a plain-English weekly report showing exactly what's changing and why, so you're never left wondering if anything is happening.
