Show the number, including the bad one
A report that only contains good news is marketing, not measurement. If a position dropped, it appears in the report at the same size as the wins.
Built by Cyticx, for businesses that answer their own phone.
RankSteer exists because the work that keeps a local business findable is real work, it never ends, and almost nobody running a business has time for it.
What it is
One plan that owns local visibility.
Most local businesses end up with four half-solutions: someone for the website, a listing nobody maintains, posts that stopped in March, and reviews going unanswered. Each of those is a real job, and none of them is a full-time one.
RankSteer runs all four on one plan, with one report a month written for an owner. The work is ordinary; doing it every month without being chased is the part that is hard to buy.
The company
RankSteer is a Cyticx product. Cyticx builds and runs marketing systems for local service businesses: websites, advertising, call tracking and now local visibility.
A person here is accountable for what the system does in your name. That is the point of saying who built it.
Before anything else
The short version.
Three refusals, stated once, so nobody has to go looking for them in a terms page.
On rankings
Never promised. Google and the AI platforms decide what appears, not us.
On an angry review
Never answered by a machine. Low ratings are skipped and left to you, always.
On what locks you in
Nothing. Month to month, no setup fee, no contract to sign.
How we work
Six things we decided early.
Never promise a ranking
Google and the AI platforms decide what appears. We are responsible for the work and the honesty, and we say so out loud rather than in a footnote.
Your voice stays yours
Anything published in your name can be read, edited or switched off by you. Automation is for the routine part, not for the relationship.
No lock-in
Month to month. A product that has to trap you is telling you something about the product.
Real screens, real reports
The product images on this website are screenshots of the real thing. Where a number is small or unflattering, it stays small and unflattering.
One price, published
The price is on the pricing page. You should not have to book a call to find out what something costs.
Boring, on purpose.That is the design goal.
A product that needs a sales call to explain its price, or a contract to keep you signed up, is telling you something about itself. Ours does neither.
In plain terms
What we do, and what we will not.
What we do
The routine work of staying visible, done every month without you chasing it.
- Check your listing, your site and your rank, and show you the number even when it is bad.
- Write posts and review replies built from your own services and area, not a category.
- Track whether ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity name your business.
- Let you read, edit or switch off anything we publish in your name.
What we will not do
Three refusals that do not change no matter what a competitor is offering.
- Promise a ranking or a position by a date. Nobody can sell you that honestly.
- Answer an unhappy review automatically. Those stay yours to answer.
- Publish a claim, an award or an offer nobody at your business authorised.
Ownership
What stays yours if you ever leave.
A small software product should never be able to hold your visibility hostage. Here is what that means in practice.
-
1
Your business data
Your data stays yours. We hold only the licence needed to run the service and to publish what you have approved.
-
2
Your reports
Ask after you cancel and we will give you a copy of your reports.
-
3
Your voice
Anything published in your name can be read, edited or switched off by you before it goes out.
-
4
Your exit
Month to month, no contract. Cancel and the plan simply runs to the end of the month you already paid for.
On pricing
The price is deliberately boring.
Two plans, both published on the pricing page before you ever have to ask. No setup fee, no contract, and no call required to find out what something costs.
Why boring is the point
A price you have to ask for is a price built to be negotiated.
Ours is the same published number for everyone on the same plan, whether you call, read the site, or never speak to a person at all.
Why the name.
Rank is the thing every local business is chasing. Steer is the part everybody forgets: it is not a one-off push, it is a hand on the wheel, month after month, making small corrections. The fox is there because the work rewards being quick and a bit clever rather than loud.
Fit
Who this is for, and who it is not.
We would rather lose a sale than take on a business we cannot help. So, plainly:
- It fits a local business that serves a real area and gets work from people searching nearby: trades, clinics, salons, repair, legal, home services.
- It fits an owner who does not want a weekly marketing meeting and would rather read one honest page a month.
- It fits a business with one to a handful of locations. Each location is its own plan because each one is its own listing.
It does not fit
- A national ecommerce store with no local footprint. Local search is not your problem.
- Anyone who needs a ranking guaranteed by a date. Nobody can give you that, and we will not pretend to.
- A business that wants reviews written or bought. We will not do it, and it is the fastest way to lose a listing.
- Someone who wants to approve nothing and also control everything. Pick one and we will build around it.
Run your business.
Let RankSteer handle the visibility.
