Seppi turned pro in 2000 playing exclusively on the ATP Futures and ATP Challenger Series circuit for three season. He won his first Futures event in 2003, Munich, Germany defeating Lars Übel in addition he qualified for his first two ATP events in Kitzbühel and Bucharest where he was defeated by Olivier Mutis and José Acasuso respectively.

2004 Seppi made his Davis Cup debut against Georgia losing to Irakli Labadze in 5 sets. In Kitzbühel Seppi failed to convert 10 match points against Rainer Schüttler in a second round loss, then a few weeks later Seppi was able to gain revenge for this loss. In his Grand Slam debut as a qualifer he defeated Schüttler from 2 sets to 0 down.[2] Seppi finished the 2005 season in the top 100 for the first time. He qualified for four ATP Masters Series events with his best performance in Hamburg where he reached the quarter finals. In Davis Cup Seppi came back from 2 sets to 0 down and defeated Juan Carlos Ferrero 5-7 3-6 6-0 6-3 6-2, before losing to Rafael Nadal in the reverse singles. After this performance, he reached his first ATP Tour semi final in Palermo where he defeated defending champion Tomáš Berdych, before falling to Igor Andreev.

In 2006 Seppi made semi finals on the hardcourts in Sydney and the grass in Nottingham showing that he was able to perform well on other surfaces besides clay. Seppi ended the streak of 4 consecutive Sydney titles for Lleyton Hewitt and in the process saved 2 match points. Seppi lost against Andre Agassi in his last tournament appearance at Wimbledon.

At the 2007 Australian Open Seppi defeated American Bobby Reynolds in 5 sets after saving a match point. The match was scheduled for the afternoon, but was put back due to the heat rule where play could not commence if the temperature was over 39 degrees Celsius.[3] This match finished at 3.34am which was at the time the latest time for a match to be completed until it was surpassed by the Lleyton Hewitt and Marcos Baghdatis match at the 2008 Australian Open.

Seppi made the final of the Sunrise Challenger defeating Gustavo Kuerten, Juan Martín del Potro, and Nicolás Massú losing to Gaël Monfils. After Sunrise Seppi had been struggling with poor form with his ranking outside of the top 100, he surprisingly made his ATP Tour final in Gstaad where he defeated Stefan Koubek and Igor Andreev both in 3rd set tiebreakers and it was his first victory over Andreev. Seppi lead 5-3 in the 3rd set and had the opportunity to serve for the championship but failed to do so losing to Paul-Henri Mathieu Seppi made his first semi final indoors in Vienna defeating two time defending champion Ivan Ljubičić along the way to complete the feat of at least making the semi finals of events played on clay, hardcourt, grass and indoors, eventually finishing in the top 80 for the third consecutive year.
