Perth, Australia – Digital Hitmen, a local leader in digital marketing, has been honoured with the distinguished Best Local Search Marketing Initiative award at the 2024 Search Engine Land Awards, recognising their outstanding achievements in local SEO.

Digital Hitmen’s innovative and results-driven approach to local search engine optimisation has earned them a prominent reputation in the digital marketing industry. The Perth-based agency's track record of delivering high-performance SEO strategies has consistently driven remarkable business growth for their clients.

In an industry where competition is fierce and algorithms constantly evolve, Digital Hitmen's adaptability and forward-thinking methodology sets them apart from their peers.

The agency demonstrates expertise in developing targeted SEO campaigns that drive both local online visibility and high-quality, conversion-ready traffic. Their commitment to staying ahead of industry trends and applying advanced optimisation techniques tailored to local audiences, reinforces Digital Hitmen’s position as a leading force in Australia’s digital marketing landscape.

Their Director, Brad Russell speaks about their win, "This award is a reflection of the hard work and creativity our team brings to every project.

Digital Hitmen delivers Transformative Results for Local Clients

The "Best Local Search Marketing Initiative" award, awarded yearly, recognizes agencies and marketing teams that have proven their ability to improve local businesses' online visibility and customer acquisition.

The award highlights Digital Hitmen’s collaboration with Aries Car Rental, a local car rental company competing in an already saturated market. Digital Hitmen's strategy led to a 179% increase in organic bookings for Aries Car Rental, driven by improved visibility and engagement through local search.

Digital Hitmen created the campaign with a multi-faceted approach, combining an in-depth keyword strategy, revamped landing pages, and a strong content plan. The results were clear, with Aries Car Rental achieving a 68% increase in local traffic and improvements in search rankings for key local keywords. This achievement not only drove traffic but also conversions, proving the effectiveness of Digital Hitmen’s strategies.

Their commitment to improving the SEO for small businesses is more than algorithms and keywords, it’s about building genuine connections with audiences through strategic, relevant, and valuable content. Digital Hitmen's holistic approach to local SEO includes optimizing everything from on-site SEO aspects like meta tags and internal linking structures, as well to off-site components like social media and local business listings.

Digital Hitmen remain competitive by constantly updating themselves with local industry trends and innovation. Their expert team work diligently to incorporate new strategies and techniques, ensuring clients stay at the top of search engine results pages.
