5.0 / 5 · 302 totalI have been very happy with the service provided by First Place SEO. The team has been professional, responsive, and always willing to help. A special thank you to Paul and George, who has been excellent throughout.

I would highly recommend First Place SEO to anyone looking for a reliable and professional SEO company. Thank you for all your support!
I'm naturally particular about how my business shows up online with regard to reputation and search visibility, and Paul clearly knows his stuff. He's got a strong grasp of modern SEO, Answer Engine Optimisation, and Google Business Profile strategy, and it shows in how he approaches things. He takes the time to explain why something matters, how Google actually judges a business, and what's genuinely going to move the needle over time. His advice on local search, reviews, citations and building authority has always felt considered and strategic, not just a checklist. What stands out is how responsive and honest he is. He treats your business like it matters to him personally and you can tell he's focused on real results rather than quick wins that fade. If you want to grow your visibility properly, First Place SEO is well worth having on your side.
We had a great experience with First Place SEO. Their team is professional, responsive, and delivers real results. Transparent communication throughout—highly recommended.
Fantastic service from start to finish. Communication was clear, everything was completed exactly as promised, and the whole process was smooth and professional. It’s refreshing to deal with someone who genuinely cares about their customers. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable service.
I’ve been very happy with Paul and the team. They have built custom plugins to capture AI traffic and optimise for my target customers very well and I get a lot of enquiries from people who found me from Google and Chat GPT. Needless to say I whole heartedly recommend their services.
I had an excellent experience working with Paul at First Place SEO. From the beginning, Paul was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping improve our online presence. He explained everything clearly, kept us updated throughout, and delivered exactly what was promised. What really stood out was his honesty, attention to detail, and dedication to getting real results rather than making unrealistic promises. Communication was always quick and helpful, and it’s clear he takes pride in his work and his clients’ success. I would highly recommend Paul and the team at First Place SEO to anyone looking for reliable and professional SEO and digital marketing services. Thank you again for the fantastic support and service
I know people use ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude these days to find companies more and more, and I’ve heard that leads that come recommended from AI convert better, so I needed to take action and am glad that I did, as the investment in my AI SEO has helped and definitely been worth it.
