Winning the award for Best Large Integrated Search Agency at the 2022 APAC Search Awards has felt like a testament to the tireless work that we at Local Digital have been putting in since our conception.

A team of digital strategists and conversion specialists with a “nerd-first” approach at our core, Local Digital is on a mission to change the status quo for digital marketing agencies and the like. The team offers Search Engine Optimisation, Google Ads management, social media advertising, and more, with a focus on the metrics that matter – leads generated, the cost per lead, and lifetime value.

There is an inexplicable feeling that comes after winning an award such as Best Large Integrated Search Agency. You know that deep down, this win doesn’t come from one notable company achievement – it comes from everyone as a whole. Everything that we at Local Digital stand for, everything we strive to achieve – this award reflects that. On a high after receiving the news, it’s safe to say that our spirits are nothing short of elation.

The APAC Search Award judges noting our custom software Natch.ai and The Brain was extremely important to us. Moving forward, we are committed to making software a focus in order to transform Local Digital into a “tech-enabled” agency. Allocating resources such as an in-house full stack developer and UI/UX designer has helped propel our name in the digital marketing sphere.

We’re also proud of our commitment to educating businesses and helping everyone be the best SEO-heroes they can be. Throughout 2021, we invested in our own podcast studio, and have put out The SEO Show. It has garnered a listenership of thousands across the world already, and we are so excited to see where it goes from here. Entering 2022, we are excited to announce our recent hiring of a Creative Producer & Videographer, helping us in our mission to put together high-quality video content to help educate our community.

With the Local Digital team passionate about what we do and what we stand for, and a Best Large Integrated Search Agency win driving us, 2022 is looking bigger and better than ever. We are so excited to see where this year takes us, with a focus on building our client base, educating businesses around us, and the development of our software – all of which culminate in helping Local Digital succeed not only for ourselves, but for those who utilise our services.
