We signed up with SemLocal to get more visibility on Google because they came highly recommended, and their pricing was realistic. So far, we're really happy with the results. Our Business Profile and website content are much better optimised, and we're continuing to receive more calls from local customers. The team has been great to work with from day one.

I was struggling to get my business visible on Google Maps until I contacted with GBP manager. They optimized my listing perfectly and now I get regular customer inquiries directly from Google! Excellent service and communication throughout.

lack of correspondence. Im not really one for leaving negative reviews, but will just leave the facts and you can decide. Made contact with Geoff, everything was positive I explained that I have tried SEO many times but they never delved on there words. I decided to take a chance on Semlocal, however after almost 8 weeks I have canceled the arrangement. The main reason for this is a almost no contact with them, no updates, no emails or phone calls informing me what they are doing in the background, unless i contacted them, and even then they didn't really have much to update. Let me be clear my reason for cancelling is a total lack of correspondence.

Since using the text-to-missed-call system, we’ve seen more customer trust and higher conversion rates. It’s a vital tool for any small business focused on Google optimisation.

SemLocal was recommended to us by another local business owner, and we're really glad we got in touch. They've been looking after our local SEO for the past few months and always keep us updated on what's being done. Communication has been straightforward, and working with them has been a great experience.
