Our Google Business Profile was half-finished and we had no idea it was costing us work. SemLocal took it over — categories, services, photos, posts and reviews — and showed us where we ranked on the map compared with competitors. We now appear in the local results across Birmingham and get regular calls and direction requests straight from Google. Best value marketing we've spent money on.

I had no idea how to get my website to rank on Google. SemLocal explained everything clearly and within a few months I was on page one. Absolutely brilliant service.

We began noticing several callers mentioning they'd 'asked ChatGPT' before reaching out. SemLocal walked us through how AI platforms choose which companies to recommend—covering on-site content, business directories, citations, online mentions, and reviews—and optimized every single area. Now we show up whenever people query AI tools for double glazing in Nottingham, which our local competitors haven't tapped into yet. Truly feels like we're way ahead of the curveeeee.
