Our take

When 2,000 small businesses filled out a survey regarding their online presence, 76% of them said they were struggling to appear in search results, with 46% saying that Google favoured big brands. At the same time, there is an increasing trend from people wanting to shop locally and support businesses in their community.

UENI is tackling this by helping small businesses boost their online presence and increase their credibility. The services the company offers range from helping you set up your social media to making sure your website works on different devices and helping with your SEO.

UENI has worked with over 600,000+ businesses in 10 countries. Catering to over 1,000 small businesses categories and with eCommerce increasingly moving online, it will be important for small businesses to make sure they can be found, giving UENI a big opportunity.
