How we helped a Pune developer make project pages findable for locality searches

A Pune developer had one page per project and no page for any locality, so the searches buyers actually make — a configuration in a suburb — landed on nothing. We built locality and configuration pages tied to real inventory and linked them to the projects. The site stopped competing with portals for broad terms and started winning specific ones.

Client context

What the client told us

"People find us when they already know the project name. We want them to find us before that." The developer was invisible at the point where buyers start looking.

Problem

What was going wrong

The site had strong project pages and no locality pages. Every search for a configuration in a suburb landed on a portal listing, and the developer was competing for brand terms only.

Findings

What we found

We pulled the search queries the site already received, mapped them against inventory, and audited every project page for readable detail.

Evidence

Almost all organic landings were brand searches.

Evidence

Floor plans were images inside a PDF, unreadable to a crawler.

Evidence

Price bands appeared nowhere in HTML on any project page.

Root cause

The site was organised by project, while the buyer searches by locality and configuration. The information architecture did not match the demand.

Solution

What we did

  1. 1 A page per locality and configuration where inventory actually exists.
  2. 2 Floor plans, carpet areas, price bands and approvals as HTML, not only in a brochure.
  3. 3 Internal links from each locality page to the projects serving it.
  4. 4 Project schema so a search engine can tell one project from another.

Results

Results and evidence

Figures not published

No figure is published because the developer has not approved one. What can be checked is the page inventory, the HTML floor plans and the internal link structure.

Impressions and enquiries from locality queries against the prior period are measured and awaiting approval.

Measurement period: Measured over twelve weeks after launch.

In the client's words

What the client said afterwards

No quote published. The developer has not approved one.

Cost

What does a similar solution cost?

Projects like this typically cost ₹1,20,000 – ₹3,50,000, depending on scope, complexity and what the clinic already has. A typical project takes Six weeks to build, then twelve weeks to measure.

What is included

  • Locality and configuration page build
  • Floor plans and price bands in HTML
  • Internal linking between localities and projects
  • Project schema

What changes the price

  • How many localities have real inventory
  • Whether floor plans exist in a usable format
  • Whether the CMS allows page-level control

Questions before you start

How long does property SEO take?
Locality pages usually show movement in two to four months. Project pages take longer because they compete with portals that have far more authority.
Can we outrank the portals?
For broad terms, rarely and not quickly. For a specific locality plus configuration, a well-built page from the actual seller can and does outrank a portal listing.
Do we need a page for every locality?
Only where you have inventory. A page for a suburb you cannot sell in is a thin page and ranks like one.
What about our brochure?
Keep it as a download, but put the same detail on the page. A buyer should not have to open a PDF to find a carpet area.

Next step

Facing a similar problem?

If buyers only find you after they already know your project name, the gap is locality intent. Tell us which suburbs you actually sell in and we will show you what a page for each would need to contain.

Tell us your current setup, the issue you are facing and your preferred timeline. We will review it and explain the possible next steps, likely scope and how pricing would work.
