Locafy Limited, a globally recognized software-as-a-service technology company specializing in local search engine marketing, announced that it was included as a finalist in the international cloud computing program, The Cloud Awards.

Locafy was named with four other companies as finalists in the Best Software as a Service (Outside USA) category, specifically for its Proximity Network and Proximity Booster technologies. The Cloud Awards program includes more than 30 software categories that recognize excellence in the cloud across industry verticals. The full finalist list includes companies spanning the Americas, Australia, Europe and the Middle East, and can be found here. Winners will be announced on February 7, 2023.

Proximity Network and Proximity Booster increase local business prominence in search for relevant keywords in specific areas. Proximity Network generates a series of fast-loading landing pages that mirror original websites and are optimized to specific locations, while Proximity Boost impacts and expands the reach for a business’s Google Business Profile so the business appears in map pack results. Combined, these technologies provide businesses with speed and range in their webpages and increased prominence in local search results, crucial for businesses hoping to locate new customers in their neighborhoods.
