"I saw a massive increase in rank for my client's local SEO. From position 15-20 to position 3-5."

"BrightLocal customized their tools based on our needs. They came up with a rank checker for AdWords ads which is something I have never been able to find anywhere else."

“BrightLocal help us show our clients success; the Local Rank Tracker helps us keep track of where our clients rank online, whist the Google My Business Audit is amazing at helping you see what your competitors are doing, and which rankings you are lacking. We were using a different company to track local rankings for Google My Business listings but the results were extremely inaccurate. With BrightLocal, however, we see much more accurate results.”

“BrightLocal’s awesome tools have allowed me to streamline my business processes. The Local Rank Tracker was instrumental in showing my clients how their local listings were performing. By having strong tools that are easy to use and to train employees on, we have been able to increase our productivity substantially. My favorite BrightLocal tool is the Google My Business Audit, which is unmatched in the industry. By being able to get a snapshot of my progress vs. top competitors, I am able to make tactical decisions easily.”

"BrightLocal's detailed, white-label reports are fantastic."

"The Agency Lead Generator widget saves us a lot of time, as we would normally have to manually generate and send these types of SEO reports ourselves. We’re saving around 30 mins per lead. That’s a saving of $500 per month on 25 leads."

"BrightLocal has helped us gain top local search positions for our clients. We actually started to see results before the Free Trial was even up."

“We are a Digital Agency based in Bristol, UK and have a large portfolio of local internet marketing clients. BrightLocal has enabled us to manage local search campaigns and achieve good results. Initially it helped us analyze the competition in order to manage client expectations. The Google My Business Audit takes the hard work out of optimizing a search listing and the Citation Tracker helps us to identify new opportunities. Product support has been great (but rarely needed) and the pricing is very cost-effective. As a Digital Marketing Consultant, I highly recommend it to other agencies as the only local listings tool you will need!”

"What is most impressive is the constant improvements that are being made. It seems like once a week I see a new option or new feature that improves on something that is already very, very good."

“BrightLocal provides a comprehensive tool set which has replaced several standalone tools we used to use, and also automates many manual reports. I really like all of the tools, but the Local Rank Tracker is the one I rely on most. This tool lets us “emulate” a source search location, providing very accurate results for us to measure our clients’ progress. BrightLocal has an easy-to-use, cost-effective portfolio of tools that are part of the cornerstone of our business – and with their 14 day Free Trial, there is no risk to try it out.”

"The team at BrightLocal has been extremely professional and helped customize their application for our specific needs. They made the setup nearly effortless! I would recommend BrightLocal, just not to our competitors!"

“We were in need of a tool to help us review client rankings in major search engines and local listings. BrightLocal met all our needs and was reasonably priced. Reports are generated in the cloud and didn’t shut down our internet access like another product we tried. We really like BrightLocal because of their reliability and the consistency. We can ‘set and forget’ reports’, knowing they’ll be ready to review when we need them.”

"BrightLocal have been a pleasure to work with. Our needs are unique and they have put forth their best efforts into getting our accounts imported and set up as soon as possible."

“Working in the franchise space means we need to determine ranking trends at a local level across a vast network of locations. BrightLocal’s aggregated roll-up report is therefore invaluable. We have used other rank reporting tools, but none of them offered the local expertise of BrightLocal. I would highly recommend them; the tools are well built, very functional and the support that the team have given us to get our reporting needs up and running has been second to none. When we had to make a large change to the reports, their team put extra hours in that went beyond the call of duty. We couldn’t be happier with their services and support.”
