The site ranks for your name, not your work
Someone who already knows you can find you. A procurement team who does not, cannot — because the pages say “services” and “about us” instead of the words they search.
Search engine optimisation for facility-management companies is the work of being the result a procurement team clicks — for the exact problem, product or service they typed, in the place they typed it from. It is slower than advertising and it keeps working after the budget stops. Most facility-management companies have a site that ranks for their own name and nothing else.
Where it usually goes wrong
Someone who already knows you can find you. A procurement team who does not, cannot — because the pages say “services” and “about us” instead of the words they search.
Under a few hundred visits a month, no amount of page editing helps. This has to be fixed before the website, the forms or the follow-up can be judged.
Slow on a phone, pages Google cannot read, duplicate titles — the site looks fine to you and is losing rankings quietly. A crawl finds it in an hour.
What we would do
Take these in order, because search rewards patience and punishes a wrong guess slowly: the phrases a procurement team actually types have to be settled before a word is written, since a page aimed at the wrong search takes three months to prove it was the wrong search.
The terms a procurement team actually uses, checked against what you can win — not a list of 200 keywords nobody searches.
A page for each thing you do, written to answer the question, with the technical faults fixed underneath it.
For facility-management companies selling to a catchment, the three businesses on the map get most of the calls. Being one of them is the job.
Plain articles for the questions a procurement team types before they enquire — the pages that keep bringing enquiries years later.
Nine times in ten the site ranks for the business’s own name and nothing else, because the thing you actually sell has no page of its own — it is a line on a list. Giving your two best-selling services a page each, with the place you serve in the heading, costs nothing and is usually the whole of the first month’s gain. We do not publish a price; we scope the work in the free audit and put the fee in writing, split into our time, your media spend and production, before anything begins.
A baseline is recorded first, so a report can say what changed rather than describe activity. If something is not earning, we say so and stop it.
We are a small team in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. Clients include Chord Road Hospital, SB Engineering, NewCom Logistics, Kerur Pain Clinic and Natural Gases, across healthcare, manufacturing, logistics and services.

Enquiries this month, at a cost per lead you can see, switched off when it stops earning.
A weekly look at live deals with someone who has closed them — the habit that keeps a team improving.
On a sound site in an uncrowded market, something worth reporting by month six to nine. On a broken site, the first months are repair. Anyone giving you a date is guessing at an algorithm they do not control.
Ads if you need enquiries this quarter, SEO if you need them next year and want them to keep coming. Most facility-management companies eventually do both; which comes first is decided by when you need the orders.
The shortlist is made before the tender. Marketing, for facility-management companies, is being known to a procurement team months earlier and having the proof ready — and a response process that does not miss the requirements you already qualify for.
There is no price list. A single clinic and an exporter are different orders of work, and a range wide enough to cover both tells you nothing. We scope it in the free audit and put the fee in writing before anything begins.
