The UK Agency Awards celebrate the impact that agencies of all shapes, sizes and specialisms are making across the country.

The 2024 awards took place at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London, where LOCALiQ was awarded Large SEO Agency of the Year.

LOCALiQ’s achievements include a significant increase in SEO revenues, growth in the SEO team headcount, success in driving increases in organic keywords year-on-year across all active clients, and hosting an SEO masterclass webinar series that attracted more than 300 participants.

Judges commended LOCALiQ for setting ambitious goals in a competitive market, adding: “We especially appreciate LOCALiQ’s approach to sharing knowledge.

“Rather than fearing that sharing SEO insights would lose clients, they have proven it strengthens their relationship.

“Their growth as a company is evident in both their internal team and their revenue.”

Nick Ashwood, LOCALiQ’s managing director, said: “We’re delighted to be recognised by the UK Agency Awards for the work we do to support SMEs on their digital marketing journey.

“Having a strong SEO strategy is foundational for any business, and we have assembled an incredibly skilled and dedicated team of experts who continue to expand and develop our offering.

“We are fortunate to be able to drive incredible results and outcomes for our customers, and our team does a fantastic job of communicating the complexities of the SEO world to our SME customers.”

LOCALiQ was also nominated for Best Integrated Campaign, Best Local Campaign, and Integrated Search Agency of the Year.
