UK Local Business Platform

Helping Local Businesses
Get Found & Grow

Spotlit is a UK local business directory with built-in SEO Intelligence. We help businesses build their online presence, understand their search visibility, and take action to reach more customers.

Two things, done brilliantly

Most platforms make you choose between a directory listing and SEO tools. Spotlit gives you both — designed from the ground up to work together.

Trusted Directory

A clean, city-by-sector directory where customers find verified local businesses. Your profile showcases photos, services, opening hours, menus, and reviews — everything a customer needs to choose you.

  • Professional business profiles with photos & services
  • City and sector browsing (London, Manchester, Leeds…)
  • Online booking and digital menus
  • Google review integration and QR code tools
  • Analytics to see how customers find you

SEO Intelligence

Enterprise-grade SEO tools rebuilt for local businesses. Track your rankings, monitor competitors, audit your citations, and get AI-powered action plans — all from one dashboard, all in plain English.

  • SEO Health Score across 6 weighted categories
  • Daily keyword rank tracking (desktop, mobile, maps)
  • Local Map Visibility heatmap (5×5 grid)
  • Business listing audit across 60+ UK directories
  • AI Action Plan — plain-English tasks ranked by priority

Why Spotlit exists

Most local businesses know they need to “do SEO” but have no idea where to start. The tools that exist are built for agencies and marketing professionals — full of jargon, expensive, and overwhelming.

Meanwhile, directory listings are scattered across dozens of platforms with no consistency. A business might have the wrong phone number on Yelp, a missing postcode on Yell, and no listing at all on Bing Places. Every inconsistency chips away at their Google ranking.

Spotlit was built to solve both problems in one place. A trusted UK directory that customers actually use, combined with SEO Intelligence tools that tell you exactly what to do — in plain English, ranked by priority, with no technical knowledge required.

We believe every local business deserves the same visibility insights that large companies pay thousands for. Spotlit starts free, and grows with you.
