Gotchas
The price is annual, not one-time: $49 a year buys a 365-day listing, so the link disappears if you stop paying.
The Featured tier requires a phone or video call to verify the business, which is a real scheduling cost on top of the $89.
They advertise DR30+; Ahrefs has the domain at 27. The dofollow links are real, the authority is rounded up.
