For B2B wholesale marketplaces

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “Buyers search by item, town and the word wholesale”

    A retailer types the product, the word wholesale and a town, sometimes in Hindi or another language written in English letters. Marketplace pages named only by brand or SKU miss these searches, so page titles need the words buyers actually type.

  • “Thousands of near-identical listings can sink each other”

    When every seller lists the same branded item with the same copied description, search engines see duplicates and choose none. Product pages need a distinct title, a seller or rate-range detail and a clear parent page for the product group.

  • “Seller recruitment is also a search problem”

    A wholesaler deciding whether to list searches for marketplaces in their trade and reads what comes up. A page that explains how orders and settlement work, written for sellers, wins a different reader from the buyer pages.

  • “Filters and login walls hide pages from search”

    Some marketplaces show rates only after login and generate endless filter combinations. The first hides what a buyer searched for, the second wastes crawl effort on thin pages. Deciding what is public and what is indexed is a core SEO choice.

What we do

What we deliver for B2B wholesale marketplaces.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. A search term map by product group and city

    The words buyers and sellers use for each product group you stock, grouped by intent and matched to one page each.

    Result: Every target term points to a single page, with no two pages competing.

  2. Product group and city landing pages

    Pages for the product groups and towns where you have sellers and delivery, with real listings and delivery areas named.

    Result: Each page names the product group, the town and the coverage you actually have.

  3. Seller-facing pages

    Pages that explain to wholesalers and manufacturers how to list, how orders reach them and how settlement works, in your own terms.

    Result: A prospective seller can read the process before asking for a call.

  4. A technical review of the site

    Crawl paths, filter URLs, duplicate listings, page speed on mobile and structured data for products.

    Result: A written list of fixes, each with the page type affected.

  5. A page-title and description pattern

    A rule for titles and descriptions across thousands of listings so each reads differently and carries the search wording.

    Result: New listings pick up the pattern without manual editing.

How the result is measured

  • Ranking positions
  • Organic traffic
  • Enquiries from organic search

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Who it is for

This is written for these B2B wholesale marketplaces.

  • General merchandise and FMCG marketplaces serving kirana and retail stores
  • Industrial supplies and MRO marketplaces for factory buyers
  • Textile and garment marketplaces linking mills, wholesalers and boutiques
  • Agri input and produce marketplaces for traders and processors
  • Building material and hardware marketplaces for contractors and dealers
  • Pharmacy and medical supply platforms for licensed retailers
  • Electronics and mobile accessory marketplaces for shop owners
  • Niche category platforms such as packaging, stationery or hospitality supplies

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Your listings are copied from supplier sheets and nearly identical, so more pages would only compete with each other.
  • Your catalogue sits behind a login, so a search page would have nothing visible to match.

How it works

How the search engine optimisation work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Audit and baseline

    We record where the site stands today: positions, traffic, technical faults and the enquiries search currently produces. Nothing starts until this number is written down.

  2. 2

    Decide what to rank for

    We map the searches your buyers use, in your words and theirs, and pick the ones worth the effort for your margin and your capacity.

  3. 3

    Fix the foundations

    Technical faults first, because the cheapest gains are there. Then the Business Profile and directory consistency.

  4. 4

    Build the pages

    A page for each thing you do, written to answer the question it is searched for, with a clear next step at the end.

  5. 5

    Publish and earn mentions

    Content goes out on the calendar. Links and mentions are earned from real relationships, not bought.

  6. 6

    Measure, report, adjust

    At an interval agreed in writing we report what moved and what did not, and change the plan when the numbers say so.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2 · you are here

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Tell us what you need
Will SEO bring buyers without paid ads?
It can bring searchers, but we promise no ranking or order volume. Search results depend on competitors, your listings and the market. We build the pages and technical base, and you read the effect in your own analytics.
Should product prices be visible without login?
That is your commercial decision. Hidden rates protect sellers but also hide pages from search and from a buyer comparing options. We lay out what each choice costs in search visibility so you can decide.
Do we need pages in Hindi or other languages?
Buyers in some towns search in their own language, so test it for the product groups where your buyers are. We check your enquiry and call records first, then plan pages where the language matters.
Why do seller recruitment pages matter for search?
Wholesalers search for how to sell online and compare platforms before they call anyone. A page that explains your listing steps, fees and settlement answers that search and brings seller leads without a field visit, if the terms are stated as your platform holds them.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
