How do I pick the safest SEO & Content Tools product?
Sort by Risk Score — lower is better.

For annual commitments, also check the lawsuits page — it shows whether the vendor has a pattern of not honouring refunds.
What to watch for in SEO & Content Tools
Categories like this one tend to attract the same recurring complaints — aggressive subscription billing, refunds that take weeks of escalation, marketing claims that don't survive contact with reality. Our scanner flags those patterns the moment they show up in BBB filings or in forum threads, so you can see what current customers are quietly furious about before you commit.
