Working with this team has been a consistently positive and professional experience. From the start, they have been responsive, organized, and attentive to the specific needs of my website and business. Most recently, they completed several important updates, including adding a clearly visible insurance announcement banner, updating the FAQ section both on the website and on my Google Business Profile, and offering expert guidance on blog and SEO best practices. Their communication is excellent—they always provide clear instructions and explain the reasoning behind their suggestions, which makes implementation much easier on my end. They don’t just complete tasks—they educate and empower, which has helped me better understand how to maintain and grow my online presence effectively.

My experience with Local Hero was nothing short of excellent. They provided key services, including building a YouTube channel and running ads to grow his brand on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Devin was impressed by the company's technical expertise and thorough understanding of social media growth strategies. The work was delivered efficiently, and the team, especially Shawn, demonstrated deep knowledge in digital marketing. Devin felt this experience was much better compared to other companies he has worked with over the years.

My experience has been amazing. They have helped me with google ads, website rebranding and transition to wordpress, seo optimization, and local seo. They are very responsive to questions I have and new things I want to try. They take time to explain things to me and take my feedback seriously. I feel like they value of what I get is way above the price point they charge.

Really great company, especially because they do some hand-holding when it comes to things you don't understand. Sean, the owner, is amazing and responsive to emails. They are great with SEO and managing Google ads. Also good with providing content roadmaps for what should be optimized and produced down the road. Great agency overall! Sidenote - they work with a lot of therapists and health care companies, and excel at that. I really appreciate that they know some start-ups have a smaller budget, and are willing to help maximize that. Love them!

I was wanting to leave my agency job and build my private practice but I had zero idea on how to do it. ILocal Hero built me a website which was optimized with SEO. This allowed me to leave my agency job within 6 months. I went from working with 4 clients before them to having over 26 a week within 6 months. I continue to work with them for on going content marketing which at this point is SEO work and blogs. They are incredible.
