Helpful, professional and never pushy

We have worked with Local IQ for some time and have always found the team helpful and professional. Brandon in particular has taken considerable time to understand our business and has provided some very useful insights and well-considered marketing advice. His approach has been friendly, knowledgeable and never pushy. Very much appreciated.

SEO Strategy

We have been working with LocaliQ on our SEO strategy for over a year, and the results have been very positive. They have helped improve the structure and performance of our website, making us significantly more discoverable online and increasing our visibility in search results.
Taruna, our account representative, is highly responsive and has worked hard to understand our priorities and ensure they are actioned effectively. The regular monthly reports and review meetings have helped us build a strong working relationship, and the team has developed a thorough understanding of our goals and objectives.
What stands out most is LocaliQ's proactive approach. They continually challenge our thinking, asking the right questions about our priorities and what we want to achieve. They benchmark our performance against the market, bringing relevant insights and recommendations that help us identify opportunities for improvement and growth. This enables them to take effective action and ensure their work is aligned with our business goals.
We value their expertise, responsiveness, and collaborative approach, and would happily recommend LocaliQ to businesses looking to improve their online visibility and SEO performance.

Great Team

We've been working with Alex and Brandon on some SEO work for several months now.

First contact was with Brandon who really took the time to understand the business and what we are trying to achieve.

Since then we've been dealing with Alex. The service we've received has been second to none. Communication is superb, regular updates and genuinely great ideas that have performed well. Despite only being a few months into the project we're starting to see results.

Great company and would recommend to others looking to improve visibility.

Impressive results

I've been working with Aaron, Brandon and the team for a number of months now and have been really impressed with both the service and the results delivered.

Communication is always prompt and professional, with regular contact and updates, creative campaign ideas and a genuine willingness to understand the business.

Most importantly, they've consistently achieved strong results and delivered high-quality media coverage that has helped raise our profile and support our wider marketing objectives.

A pleasure to work with Aaron and a service I would have no hesitation in recommending to other businesses in the professional services space.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with LocaliQ

I’ve had the pleasure of working with the LocaliQ team, especially Japinder, Angela, and Nick, on our law firm’s SEO campaign. They’ve been incredibly professional and dedicated, and I’ve been so impressed that I’m now working with them on an SEO campaign for a second business of mine. I can’t recommend Japinder and the LocaliQ team enough!

Amazing team, service and delivery

I had the pleasure of working with Chris and Brandon who have been absolutely amazing. Their expertise and individual support has been fantastic. They have made the process easy for me to understand and hopefully will have a huge impact on my business long term with what we have planned together. The onboarding process was very thorough and Brandon has been there answering all my questions. The support has been brilliant and I couldn't have asked to work with anyone better.

Shared confidential information as loose gossip AVOID 🤬

Talk talk talk and deliver nothing. I paid £30k for unprofessional service that delivered nothing. Plenty of hot air and talk from account manager Karen, but no results. Confidential information was shared as loose girly gossip. I'm gutted I ever put my trust in them.
Worst decision I ever made as a small business owner.
Plenty of other agencies in York, please don't give this one a chance.

Reply from LOCALiQ UK

We are disappointed to read this review, not least because it does not reflect the facts of our extensive correspondence with you on this matter.

Your allegation that confidential information was shared was treated seriously and investigated internally. That investigation found no evidence to support your claim, and despite requests, no evidence has been provided to substantiate it.

For that reason, we reject the suggestion that this was ignored or mishandled. We engaged with you fully and responded at length.

There is also a separate ongoing commercial matter, which it would be inappropriate to discuss in detail in a public response. Nevertheless, we do not accept the accuracy of the statements made in this review.

Should you wish to provide verifiable evidence, we will review it.

Overall a really positive experience

Overall we have had a really positive experience with LocalIQ. We had previously been approached by many companies who wanted to 'take control' of our website (for our small business) and 'optimise' it for Google searches and SEO. We were reluctant as we have a specific brand ethos and tone of voice that we convey on our website, and all of the companies that had approached us previously had wanted to start a-fresh and basically give us a 'one-size-fits-all' website that really didn't reflect who we are as a business, or allow us to stand out compared to our competitors. Our experience with LocalIQ has been completely different. Our SEO client success manager, Tasnim Goznovi, has been able to adapt our current website, and has been very sensitive and responsive to our requests to maintain our specific brand look and tone of voice, so that it still feels like us, but is now attracting more traffic and, therefore business, to our website. Tasnim's ongoing support and catch-ups with us are extremely valuable and ensure that everyone is still on the same page when it comes to the overall message we want to convey as a business. We will continue to work with LocalIQ for the foreseeable future, and will very likely be asking them to start building a brand new website for us in the next few years, since they have handled our current one so well.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review. We’re delighted that Tasnim has been able to build on your existing site in a way that respects your unique brand ethos and tone of voice, while also helping to drive more traffic and business your way. Knowing that it still feels like “you” but performs better is exactly the outcome we aim for. It’s also great to hear that the regular catch‑ups and ongoing support are helping to keep everything aligned with the message you want to convey as a business.

We really appreciate your trust in us and your kind words about the team, and we’re excited at the prospect of continuing to work together in the future—including supporting you when the time comes to explore a brand new website.

Best wishes,
Michael
