This company makes false promises. Google constantly changes their algorithm to prevent exactly that. No company can promise top listings and Google makes it very clear. Talk to a professional and save $1,200 a year.
Well after a few weeks things were looking a little better but after a few months I am happy enough to write a good review for iLocal Gurus. My business is on the map now and I'm getting more work than I have time for. Thank you ilocal gurus.
There a lot of deadbeats out there that don't understand the process of SEO based on the review I see. For me I understand that for the price these guys charge its nothing compared to what I was paying before at a starting point of $1200 a month.
Come on people know before you blow... I'm very happy with the customer service that I have received from day one! Welcome call was done the same day and they communicated with me for about a month until my first phase of my campaign was complete. Remember this is a intro to SEO at a fraction of the cost and if your pro active they will get you ranking...

I signed on with ILocal Gurus late last year and have never seen any results. Promised to be pushed to the front of the Google Maps section. Supposed to be making post for my business on the Google + page. Hasn't made any in over 6 months. Made repeated attempts to talk to Ian and others at this so called company but never get phone calls returned or they are always "IN A MEETING". Its completely ridiculous and a complete waste of time and money. *BEWARE* Never do business with I local Gurus!
They called me after 7pm once WTF. Oh well, east coast west coast time zone difference. Other than that all went well with them.
I have been extremely satisfied. I have tried marketing internet and print radio you name it never saw so much activity this fast thank you Ilocal
Most people only leave reviews when someone screws up. I just thought people should know about a company that did something right for a change. This company called me offering front page Google placement. I was a little skeptical at first cause there are so many companies promising everything under the sun. They told me that they have a 90 day guarantee to be on the first page of Google under the maps or they "will work for free until I'm on page 1" so i tried it. I FOUND MYSELF ON PAGE ONE IN 47 DAYS! They definitely put their money where their mouth is.
My reps name was Michael Tesauro and he was EXTREMELY knowledgeable and actually took the time to make sure I understood everything, and answered all the questions this Google layman had. Yeah, I use Google to search but I had no idea how to get my company's website up on the first page without spending a gazillion dollars.
Every time I've called their customer service, they have been extremely helpful and polite and have been able to make all the changes my husband and I needed.
We are a fairly new business so our company has gone from zero to hero all because of www.ilocalgurus.com. Thanks Michael Tesauro for calling us. YOU'RE A ROCKSTAR! And thanks ilocalgurus.
My husband and I recommend you to all of our friends that have a company with a website.
We'll do business again. Recommended. Excellent phone support too.
These people will die slow deaths for their telemarketer calls claiming to be google. They buy your business phone number call for you and say they'll call back again soon when you say don't call me.
This $#*!i company just rips off your money, this is a scamp, if you want to better with you mr money stay away from this company. I am desputing them because they don't do anything.
Ian solicited my business in early April 2016. I explained that it was a summer only business, and I had to be on the FRONT page of Google by June 1st. Ian assured me that it would be done and that Ilocalgurus had a money back guarantee if I was not totally satisfied.
July 20th, still not on front page, not even on second page!
I have spoken to Cherise and Ragan-both stated, when I said I wanted my money back after June 1, that it was a 90 day money back guarantee, which meant July 5th. It is now July 20th and Ian says that hey don't have a moneyback guarantee! I have to speak to the company owner. John, but he is never there.
Take my advise, don't walk away from this company. RUN AWAY!
Nice lady have called me and offer their services to have my bussness on the first page of Google. In the moment notice I have been transferred to another person. He offered me $100 of from their regular service.
I have told him that would like to do research on them to be sure and will call back.
He told me THANK YOU FOR WASTING EVERYDODY'S TIME.
SIMPLY RUDE.
IF YOU ARE OFFERING SERVICES BE NICE TO THE END.
A friend gave me their number and my business has doubled in four months.
Answer: No, do NOT give them a try! They are pushy, rude, and completely misrepresent their company. We've told them we're NOT interested SEVERAL times now, as well as telling them NOT to call us anymore, and still they persist. As if we don't have caller ID, as if we aren't on the Do Not Call List, and as if we won't report them. Which we did. These guys SUCK!
