How Add-on Services work.

Add-on Services is where you can have work done for you rather than doing it yourself: directory listings, Business Profile work, links, and placements on the pages AI assistants cite. Your audits and recommendations stay part of your plan whether or not you ever use a service.

Some services are live and can be ordered today. The rest are listed so you can tell us which ones you want, and that decides what gets built next.

Finding it

Add-on Services is in the sidebar, just above Scheduled Tasks. The page is titled Services and has four sections:

Each card describes the service and why it matters. Pricing, where it's set, is shown on each card on the Services page.

What the badges mean

Active. Live now. The button takes you into the real flow, such as Check my listings for Directory Citations.

Available. Live, but set up by our team rather than ordered from this page.

Coming soon. Not built yet. The button is I want this.

You want this. You've registered interest in it for this site.

Site Software

WordPress Plugin: Author Bio Pro renders your Brand Hub authors on your live site: bylines, a "Reviewed by" credit and full author pages. Depending on your plan, the card shows it as included with your plan or lets you add it, and the licence lives under Settings → Plan & Usage. Authors, bylines and Author Bio Pro has the details.

Links and AI Citations

Both services here are Coming soon.

Backlinks. Links from relevant sites with real readers, to build your authority on Google. Each link is an original article with a single followed link, pointed at the page on your site it helps most. Every site is vetted for traffic, topic fit and link-farm signs before it's used, and you can veto any of them. The work is sold in monthly packages.

AI Citation Placements. Outreach to get your business mentioned, with a link, on the pages AI assistants already cite for your prompts: the lists, guides and comparisons in your Opportunity matrix on the AI Visibility Sources tab. You approve the targets, we do the outreach, and your AI Visibility tracking shows any mentions that appear.

You can also vote for placements from the Sources tab itself. The Want this done for you? strip there records the same vote as the card, so it only counts once.

Local Presence

These are priced per location, because each location has its own profile and its own listings.

Directory Citations is Active. It submits your business to data aggregators and established directories, each one a live listing with your name, address, phone and a link to your site, and you get a report of every listing that goes live. It's $500 per location, paid once. Check my listings opens the order flow, which includes a free check of where you're already listed. Local SEO and Directory Citations covers the full order flow, including payment and withdrawing an order.

Business Profile Optimization is Coming soon: a one-time rebuild of your Google Business Profile against the punch list from your local audit, covering categories, services, description, attributes and photos.

Business Profile Management is Coming soon: ongoing profile posts, responses to genuine reviews, Q&A and monthly reporting. We'd draft it and you'd approve it before anything is published, the same as your articles.

Growth

All four are Coming soon, and the page says plainly that they're listed so you know where this is heading, not to sell you anything today:

• Speed to Lead: an instant text and email when a new lead arrives, plus missed-call text-back
• Review Management: review requests to real customers after real work, monitoring on Google and Facebook, and drafted responses
• AI Voice Receptionist: answers, qualifies and books calls around the clock
• Custom Software Solutions: we look at a task your team repeats and build something that does it, then maintain it

How "I want this" works

Click I want this on any Coming soon card. The badge changes to You want this, and the Verand team is told straight away.

Add a note first if there's something that would make the service useful to you, such as how many locations you have or what you'd want covered. Your note shows on the card once you've voted.

It's a vote, not an order. Nothing is charged, it doesn't reserve a place in a queue, and it isn't a promise the service will ship. It tells us what to build next, and services with more interest move up the list.

Votes are per site. If you manage several sites, vote on each one that needs the service.

Changed your mind? Click Remove my interest. Withdrawing is as quick as voting.
