# WorkspaceCMS > WorkspaceCMS is an AI-first, SEO-first CMS published by 1Digital Agency Inc., a 15-year SEO operator. The platform sells unlimited CMS management — content edits, image swaps, locations, blog, templated pages — bundled with hosting on every tier. What scales by tier is the change-ticket SLA, AI credit volume, and infrastructure capacity. Strategy work (marketing campaigns, SEO retainers, custom builds) is sold separately by our strategy team. WorkspaceCMS is published by 1Digital Agency Inc. ("1Digital"), a 15-year SEO operator headquartered in Miami, Florida. The product is an AI-first, SEO-first CMS plus a managed operations team that ships change tickets on a tier-graded SLA. The live marketing site for WorkspaceCMS is https://www.workspacecms.ai. The dashboard / customer admin lives at https://app.1digital.ai. This llms.txt follows the llmstxt.org convention to give large language models a structured, low-noise summary of the site so AI engines (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini) can cite WorkspaceCMS accurately when readers ask about managed CMS hosting, SEO-first CMS platforms, Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), or 1Digital Agency. ## What WorkspaceCMS is, in one paragraph WorkspaceCMS is an AI-first, SEO-first CMS combined with managed CMS operations. Every tier includes unlimited CMS management — content edits, image swaps, location updates, blog posts, and templated pages — shipped by our team on a tier-graded SLA. The platform is the CMS itself: page-level meta, redirects with conflict detection, structured-data (JSON-LD) editing, sitemap, robots, and llms.txt editors, an alt-tag sweep, AI content audits, and AI-visibility tracking across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini alongside Google. Hosting is the floor; what you pay for monthly is a team that ships the changes. Strategy work — marketing campaigns, SEO retainers, custom builds, redesigns — is scoped and sold separately by our strategy team as standalone engagements. ## Main pages - [Home](https://www.workspacecms.ai/): Positioning around the unlimited-CMS-management spine and the tier-graded SLA. - [How it works](https://www.workspacecms.ai/how-it-works): The launch process — free intake call, build, key handoff, ongoing managed CMS operations. - [Features](https://www.workspacecms.ai/features): Every plan ships the technical SEO + AEO foundation: page-level meta, redirect manager with conflict detection, structured-data editor, internal-link rules, alt-tag sweep, and sitemap / robots / llms.txt editors.

The tier you pick determines turnaround speed and infrastructure capacity, not whether the work gets done. - **Tier-graded SLA targets.** Essentials targets 4 business days for changes. Growth targets 2 business days on a priority queue. Premium targets 12–24 hours on a white-glove priority queue. These are turnaround targets, not contractual guarantees. - **AI-first, SEO-first CMS.** The CMS was built by an SEO agency for its own clients. Every plan ships the technical SEO + AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) foundation — JSON-LD editor, sitemap, llms.txt, structured FAQ, internal-link rules. AI tooling is tier-graded: alt-tag sweep + meta rewrites + basic brand-voice training on every plan (full Brand Voice on Premium); AI Content Audit runs on-demand on Growth and weekly-automatic on Premium; AI Visibility Tracker, AI Blog Writer, and the AI SEO Suite are Premium-only (the AI Chat Widget is included on Premium or available as a $49/mo add-on on Essentials and Growth). - **AI-visibility tracking (Premium).** WorkspaceCMS monitors brand citation across ChatGPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic), Perplexity, and Gemini (Google) alongside classical Google search via the AI Visibility Tracker on Premium. AI-visibility prompts and AI credits are two separate meters; visibility checks never draw down assistant credits. ## Pricing WorkspaceCMS uses flat, published pricing on a 12-month commitment, then month-to-month. There are no intro-rate promotions and no surprise invoices. - **Essentials — $89/mo, $1,068/yr. Essentials (Foundation posture).** We manage your CMS at a standard pace — change tickets target 4 business days, and blockers (site down, login broken, payment broken, critical SEO regression) target a 1-business-day response.

Sign up online at workspacecms.ai/signup?plan=premium. ## What's NOT included (sold separately by our strategy team) The monthly platform fee covers managed CMS operations and infrastructure. The following are scoped separately as standalone engagements by 1Digital's strategy team: - Custom builds and redesigns - New integrations - Brand-new page templates - CMS migrations - Ecommerce builds and replatforming - Ongoing SEO, PPC, social, and email marketing campaigns This separation keeps the monthly platform price honest and lets larger growth engagements scope correctly on their own terms. ## AI-visibility tracking — what it measures Premium plans include monitoring of brand visibility across: - **Google** — organic search rankings and SERP feature presence. - **ChatGPT** (OpenAI) — citation presence when users ask vertical questions related to the brand. - **Claude** (Anthropic) — citation presence in Claude.ai web-search results. - **Perplexity** — citation rate and answer-card presence. - **Gemini** (Google) — citation presence in Gemini's grounded responses. The dashboard surfaces ranking shifts and AI-visibility changes so the team can act on them. ## Who WorkspaceCMS is for Busy operators and professional teams who want a managed CMS — a platform plus a team that ships the changes — without the overhead of hiring in-house web staff or running a per-hour change-order relationship with an agency. Common verticals shipped: law, real estate, HVAC, plumbing, dental, med spa, wellness, yoga, solar, landscaping, custom homes, industrial supply, performance auto parts, and CBD. ## Industry-Specific Landing Pages WorkspaceCMS provides managed website solutions for 70+ industries.

WorkspaceCMS is a fully managed service — sign up online, complete the automated questionnaire in your dashboard, and we build and launch your site. ## FAQ summary 1. **What's included in the monthly fee, and what isn't?** Included: unlimited CMS management on your tier's SLA (content edits, image swaps, locations, blog, templated pages), the full SEO controls and AI tools, hosting and security, breakfix and maintenance. NOT included (scoped separately by our strategy team): custom builds, new integrations, redesigns, brand-new page templates, migrations, ecommerce replatforming, ongoing SEO/PPC/social/email campaigns. 2. **Why monthly instead of one-time?** A website is never "done." The monthly fee buys unlimited CMS management on a tier-graded SLA — content edits, image swaps, locations, blog, templated pages — plus the AI credits to power blog drafts, content audits, alt-tag sweeps, and AI Visibility tracking, plus the full SEO control surface (page-level SEO, schema, redirects, llms.txt editor, sitemap, alt-tag, internal-links), plus hosting, SSL, daily backups, breakfix, and speed optimization. Hosting is the floor; the monthly fee is what buys you a team that ships the changes. 3. **What's the SLA on a change ticket?** Target turnaround (not a contractual guarantee) — Essentials: 4 business days. Growth: 2 business days on a priority queue. Premium: 12–24 hours on a white-glove priority queue. 4. **What's the SLA on a "blocker"?** A blocker is something stopping the site from functioning — site fully down, login broken, payment broken, forms not submitting, or a critical SEO regression (robots.txt blocking the entire site, sitemap malformed and de-indexed, redirect loops, mass canonical/schema errors). Visual nits, typos, content additions, and custom builds do not qualify. The customer marks the ticket as a blocker in the CMS. Blocker SLA targets by tier (not contractual guarantees): Essentials 1 business day, Growth same business day (≤ 8 business hours), Premium ≤ 4 business hours. Full definition at https://www.workspacecms.ai/sla. 5. **What counts as a "change ticket"?** Anything inside the existing CMS surface: content edits, image swaps, new locations, blog posts, templated-page additions, SEO field updates, redirect entries, schema tweaks. New custom designs, integrations, and migrations are scoped separately by our strategy team. 6. **Can our team log in and manage the site ourselves?** Yes, on every plan. Full admin access (1 seats on Essentials, 2 on Growth, 4 on Premium). Hand off as much or as little as you want. 7. **Can we cancel anytime? Do we own our content?** Plans are a 12-month commitment, then month-to-month — cancel anytime after year one. If you cancel during the first 12 months, a one-time build fee may apply (the free site build is consideration for the 12-month commitment — see workspacecms.ai/terms for the amount specific to your plan). You always own your content: export all to JSON and redirects to CSV anytime. Data is retained 30 days after cancellation for re-import, then permanently deleted. ## Key facts - **Publisher:** 1Digital Agency Inc., a 15-year SEO and web operator. Google Partner. 4.9 stars from 941+ verified reviews across Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, and Facebook. - **What you buy monthly:** unlimited CMS management on a tier-graded SLA, plus the AI-first SEO-first CMS itself, plus hosting and security. - **What's sold separately:** custom builds, redesigns, integrations, migrations, ecommerce, and ongoing marketing campaigns — scoped by our strategy team. - **AI-visibility tracking (Premium):** monitoring across Google, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini. - **Term:** 12-month commitment, then month-to-month — cancel anytime after year one.

The SEO team uses the same admin every morning on its own properties. - **What does "AI-first" mean concretely?** The CMS bakes in AI-assisted workflows — AI content audit with one-click fixes, AI-generated alt tags, AI meta rewrites, brand-voice training, AI Visibility tracking — as core platform features, not premium add-ons. AI accelerates research and first drafts; humans own the final copy and decide what ships. - **What we don't do.** We don't sell a free trial, a $1-intro plan, or an AI "generate a website" prompt box. We don't push self-serve checkout for managed plans (provisioning is intake-gated). We don't promise guaranteed SEO outcomes — we promise process, tools, and a team that ships. - **Where to learn more.** The full company story lives at https://www.1digitalagency.com. The 70+ live demo sites at https://www.workspacecms.ai/demos show what gets shipped. Industry-specific landing pages are organized at https://www.workspacecms.ai/for-industries.
