SEO & Local SEO

How much time does SEO take in Kanchipuram?

Google Business Profile and Maps improvements often show early movement within 30 to 60 days. Ranking for competitive keywords and building steady organic traffic usually takes 3 to 6 months.

What is the difference between SEO and local SEO?

SEO improves how your website ranks on Google in general. Local SEO focuses on searches with local intent, such as 'physiotherapy near me' or 'silk saree shop in Kanchipuram', and on Google Maps results.

Do I need a website for local SEO?

A Google Business Profile alone can bring calls, but a fast website with clear service and location pages ranks better and converts more visitors.

Can you guarantee first position on Google?

No honest agency can guarantee rankings, because Google decides them. We guarantee the work: proven methods, clear reporting and steady improvement.

What is the difference between SEO and local SEO?

SEO improves your ranking in normal Google search results. Local SEO focuses on searches with a location in them, such as 'near me' or a town name, and on the Google Maps results. Most local businesses need both.

Can you guarantee the first position on Google?

No honest agency can guarantee a position, because Google decides rankings. We work on everything Google lists as ranking factors and report the real numbers every month.

Do I need a website for local SEO?

You can rank on Google Maps with only a Business Profile, but a website with a page for each service makes it much easier to rank for more searches and to turn visitors into enquiries.

Social Media Marketing

How many posts per month do you create?

Most local businesses do well with 12 to 16 posts and 4 to 8 Reels per month. We set the number in your plan based on your goals and budget.

Do you manage YouTube too?

Yes. We can repurpose Reels as YouTube Shorts and plan longer videos when they suit your business.

Will social media bring sales directly?

Social media builds awareness and trust. Paired with a WhatsApp button and occasional ads, it brings direct enquiries.

Google & Meta Ads

What budget do I need for ads?

For most local businesses we recommend starting with ₹5,000 to ₹10,000 per month in ad spend, paid directly to Google or Meta. The management fee is separate.

Yes. We can edit your phone footage and add captions and branding.

WhatsApp allows business messages to people who have opted in, using approved templates through the WhatsApp Business Platform. Unsolicited bulk messages can get a number banned, so we only message opted-in contacts.

Which is better, WhatsApp or email?

For local customers in Tamil Nadu, WhatsApp usually gets read faster. Email works better for longer content, B2B buyers and invoices. Many businesses use both.

Can you add a WhatsApp button to my ads?

Yes. Click-to-WhatsApp ads on Facebook and Instagram open a chat with your business directly.

Do I need my customers' permission?
