ADEL SEO helps local businesses get more enquiries from Google, Google Maps and AI search, with websites, SEO and Google Ads. Founded in Adelaide in 2014 by Wilson Tiong, who has been doing SEO since 2007.

How it starts
How people search for a handyman
- Odd jobs: "handyman near me". Quick decisions, often on reviews.
- Specific jobs: "gutter cleaning", "flat pack assembly", "door repairs".
- Landlords and property managers: regular work across many homes.
Google shows the local pack for most of these: the map and three businesses Google shows above the normal results for local searches.
