The story

ReachLocal was founded in 2003 by Zorik Gordon, Nathan Hanks, Michael Kline, Robert Wright, John Mazur, and Robert "Rick" Spitz.

ReachLocal's first product was a search engine advertising service called ReachSearch. This technology places businesses’ advertisements on multiple search engines, including Google, Yahoo! and Bing. ReachLocal has since introduced a range of digital marketing products, including ReachEdge, its lead conversion software.

In 2010, ReachLocal launched its initial public offering (IPO). Before the company's IPO, ReachLocal was venture-backed by VantagePoint Venture Partners, Rho Ventures and Galleon Special Opportunities Partners Fund LP.

In February 2011, ReachLocal acquired DealOn, a local deals company for approximately $10 million.

In April 2014, ReachLocal appointed Sharon Rowlands as chief executive officer and member of its board of directors, replacing interim CEO David Carlick.

In June 2016, the company was acquired by Gannett for about $156 million.

In January 2019, Gannett named Kevin Gentzel, who became the media company's first chief revenue officer in 2015, as president of USA TODAY Network Marketing Solutions, when Sharon Rowlands was appointed the CEO of Web.com.

In February 2023, ReachLocal became LocaliQ in the United States and Canada.
