## **🧭 Overview**

If you want personalised guidance beyond self-service resources, Search Atlas offers access to certified implementors — independent professionals who provide hands-on, 1-on-1 training and setup services tailored to your goals. This article explains what implementor services are, what they cover, and how to connect with one.

## **🤝 What Is an Implementor?**

An implementor is a certified Search Atlas expert — typically a consultant, agency, or freelancer — who has been trained specifically on the platform. They offer paid, personalised services to help you get up and running quickly, use the platform strategically, and maximise your return on investment.

Implementors are independent professionals, not Search Atlas employees. They set their own rates, availability, and service packages.

## **✅ What Implementor Services Typically Cover**

While every implementor tailors their offering to your needs, common services include:

- **1-on-1 onboarding and platform walkthroughs** — personalised sessions covering the tools most relevant to your workflow
- **SEO strategy setup** — configuring Rank Tracker, Keyword Magic, and Keyword Gap under Left sidebar → Keywords to match your campaigns
- **Local SEO configuration** — setting up and optimising your GBP Projects tools, including GBP projects, Posts, Reviews, and Local Citations via Left sidebar → Local (GBP Projects)
- **Content and workflow training** — hands-on guidance for building and executing content plans inside Search Atlas
- **Ongoing coaching** — regular check-ins to review performance and refine your strategy over time

## **👤 Who Should Use an Implementor?**

Implementor services are a strong fit if you:

- Are new to Search Atlas and want to learn the platform quickly with expert guidance
- Have a specific SEO goal — such as local ranking, content scaling, or competitive research — and want a structured plan to achieve it
- Prefer learning by doing in live, interactive sessions rather than reading documentation
- Are migrating from another SEO tool and need help recreating your existing workflows
- Manage a team and want training sessions delivered to multiple people at once

## **💰 How Much Does It Cost?**

Implementor pricing is set independently by each professional and varies based on their experience, the scope of services, and session length. Common pricing models include:

- **Hourly rates** — ideal for focused, single-topic sessions
- **Project-based packages** — covering full onboarding or a defined deliverable
- **Retainer engagements** — ongoing monthly coaching or support

Because implementors are independent, there is no fixed rate set by Search Atlas. You can discuss scope and pricing directly with your chosen implementor before committing.
