Moz Pro true cost: the 36-month total
Moz Pro costs $1,764 over 36 months on Starter at 1 account, billed annually, before 3 cost lines that sit outside the plan price.
What Moz Pro costs over 36 months
Every figure below is Moz Pro's own published rate, annualised and multiplied out over 36 months at 1 account. Where Moz Pro publishes no rate, the row says so instead of guessing.
Renewal sensitivity: three scenarios, not a forecast
Nobody knows what Moz Pro charges in 2029. The table below is arithmetic on a rate you choose, not a prediction: it compounds the year-one total forward at 0%, 5% and 10% so you can see how much of the 36-month figure is exposed to a renewal you have not negotiated yet.
Scenario arithmetic on Moz Pro's own published year-one figure. Uplift rates are illustrative inputs, not observed or predicted rates.
What sits outside the Moz Pro list price
3 lines, sorted by when in the contract lifecycle they land. Lines marked as derived are arithmetic on Moz Pro's own tier table rather than vendor prose.
Each line, what triggers it, and how to avoid it
Paid add-on or module
Stated on the pricing page: Additional AI Visibility Dashboards billed at USD 20 each
What triggers it. A separately-priced module. It stacks on top of the plan rate for as long as you keep it, and on a per-unit add-on it also scales with the 1 account basis.
How to avoid it. Bundle the add-ons into the initial negotiation. They are discounted far more readily at first signature than when added in year two as a mid-term upsell.
Paid add-on or module
Stated on the pricing page: Extra AI prompt tracking at USD 50 per 100 prompts
What triggers it. Triggered by needing the capability, and then charged every cycle afterwards. Add-ons attach to the Starter subscription permanently, so this is a recurring line the $1,764 figure does not contain.
How to avoid it. Build the shortlist at like-for-like scope. Price Moz Pro with the add-ons you actually need against rivals with theirs, or the $1,764 comparison is measuring different products.
Feature gated to a higher tier
Stated on the pricing page: Higher tracked-site limits require Premium/custom enterprise quotes
What triggers it. Triggered by needing one feature, not by growing. This is the mechanism that moves teams off Starter: a single requirement that only exists further up the ladder, at a rate that applies to every unit you buy.
How to avoid it. Ask whether the capability can be bought as an add-on to Starter. Vendors frequently unbundle when the alternative is losing the deal.
How that compares across seo platforms and content optimization
The median seo platforms and content optimization tool we track charges $49 a month at its cheapest paid tier. Re-expressed on the same basis as the figure above, 1 account for 36 months, that median works out at $1,764.
Moz Pro lands $0 below that figure, 0.0%, measured across 23 tracked tools. A gap either way is a question, not a verdict: cheaper often means fewer included seats or a thinner support tier, and the fee lines below are where that difference usually reappears.
What changes at enterprise scale
Everything above prices the self-serve ladder. Enterprise sits off that ladder, which means the $1,764 figure is a floor for a large deployment rather than an estimate of one.
Moz Premium and Moz Enterprise are custom-quoted with higher keyword and site limits, dedicated support, and SSO.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Moz Pro cost over three years?
$1,764 on Starter at 1 account, billed annually, which is $49 a month held flat for 36 months. That figure covers the subscription only.
Does paying Moz Pro annually save money?
Moz Pro publishes the same effective rate either way on Starter, so there is no prepay discount to capture. Keep the monthly option unless the vendor offers something for the commitment.
What does Moz Pro charge for outside the plan price?
3 lines: paid add-on or module, paid add-on or module, feature gated to a higher tier. Each one is broken down above with what triggers it and how to avoid it.
Could Moz Pro cost more at renewal?
Possibly, and nothing on this page predicts it. If the rate held flat the three-year total would be $1,764; at a hypothetical 10% a year it would be $1,946.28. Cap the uplift in the contract and the question stops mattering.
