About Us

OptiLocal was established in November of 2011. The company specializes in Local Search Engine Optimization for small and mid-size businesses of any niche. Our core mission has always been to offer a comprehensive, one-stop, quality service to clients who want to dominate their local presence.

OptiLocal is transparent. Transparency is a guiding principle that we live by, hence we heavily emphasize on comprehensive quotes containing a detailed strategy of how we are going to get the job done and heavy reporting. We always encourage prospective clients to ask about our previous work!

OptiLocal is young and determined. Our team is made up of young specialists who all want to develop in the field that they are in. While already quite some time has passed since we launched our service and we've learned a lot, we feel that there is a tone more to learn.

We like to play darts in our office, carpool or bike to work together and enjoy some company outings together (teaming up against the managers in Paintball is totally not cool). We hate the swear jar despite all the junk food that it bought us.

Hi everyone, my name is Pavel Kukushev. I am soon to graduate the university but I have been involved with computer-related work since high school - mostly building websites and a little bit of programming, too. I was excited to join OptiLocal as I was curious in the field of Local SEO. Since I joined, I've been involved with Citation Building and Link Prospecting. Outside of work, I am a well-balanced person, very hard to make angry and maybe just a bit of a pessimist. I have graduated the high school of Mathematics in Varna, Bulgaria and am now studying Computer Science in Varna Technical University.
