Who's behind SEOAGENT.AU — and how we test.

This site is edited from Brisbane, Australia, by someone who builds search-driven properties for a living — not a content farm rewriting press releases. Here's exactly how the comparisons are made, what's affiliate-linked, and what our evidence looks like.

Established August 2026

The editor

SEOAGENT.AU is written and maintained by Lucas, a Brisbane-based search and programmatic-SEO builder. The short version of the credential that matters here: we run the tools we recommend on live sites we own — including a 700+ page data index that AI search engines (Perplexity, Google AI Mode) already cite as a primary source in its niche. When we say a tool applies on-page fixes at scale, it's because we've watched it do it on real pages with real Search Console data, not because a vendor's landing page said so.

How we test and rank

Pricing is verified, not pasted. Every plan price on this site was checked against the vendor's live pricing page in August 2026. When pricing changes, pages are updated — the "last reviewed" date on each page is the contract.

Four ranking criteria, applied consistently: how much work the tool actually executes (vs reports), whether it's grounded in real search data (Search Console integration vs generic AI guesses), cost per site at agency scale, and time-to-impact. Our editorial scores come from these criteria — they are ours, not aggregates of other reviews.

Rankings are re-checked quarterly. The AI SEO category moves monthly; a guide that isn't re-verified decays into fiction fast.

See the method applied: the full ClickRank review — verified pricing, execution evidence and the honest limitations, all in one place.

We prioritise executors over reporters. A tool that applies the fix outranks a tool that describes the fix. This is a judgement call, disclosed as one.

Affiliate disclosure, plainly

Some outbound links (including ClickRank) are affiliate links: if you buy through them, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This never influences rankings. The practical guarantee: we rank on published criteria, we show the receipts on-page, and any tool that executed better than our current #1 would take the top spot regardless of its affiliate program — including tools with no affiliate program at all (several on our lists pay us nothing).

Vendors do not get preview, input, or approval on any content here. No sponsored placements are sold. If that ever changes, this page changes first.

What this site is not

Not an agency, not a reseller, and not for hire through this domain — nothing here is a pitch for our services. It's an independent comparison hub for the three things people mean when they type "seo agent": the AI tools, the professionals, and the profession-specific playbooks.

Corrections are welcome and published: if a price or claim here is wrong, it gets fixed with a note. That policy has already run on our other properties for years.
