Sochely – An SEO-first platform for creating and discovering local events

Sochely is an SEO-focused platform designed for creating and discovering local events, aiming to improve event visibility in search results.

Background

Sochely is a new event-discovery and creation platform that prioritises search-engine optimisation (SEO) — meaning events posted on it are designed to rank highly in Google and other search results, rather than relying solely on an in-app feed. The service aims to compete with established event tools like Eventbrite, Meetup, and Facebook Events, which often bury local listings behind logins or algorithmic feeds. Sochely's pitch is that by making each event page crawlable and optimised for search queries (e.g. "tech meetups Berlin March 2025"), it helps organisers attract attendees who are actively searching rather than passively scrolling. The site is currently live and accepting event submissions.
