Our approach

Website development + a focused local SEO programme

The challenge

RAC Maldives had no website and almost no Google visibility. Competitors were ranking for high-intent searches like "AC repair Maldives" and "AC service Malé", capturing leads that should have been theirs.

  • No website — only a Facebook page
  • Zero presence on Google Search & Maps
  • No structured service pages or pricing info
  • Relying entirely on word-of-mouth referrals

What we delivered

  • Fast, mobile-first website built for conversion
  • Service pages for AC repair, installation & maintenance
  • Local SEO setup — Google Business Profile, NAP & citations
  • On-page SEO — keyword-mapped titles, meta & headings
  • Schema markup for LocalBusiness & Service
  • Service-area pages targeting Malé, Hulhumalé & Villimalé
  • Off-page SEO — local link building & directory listings
  • Monthly ranking, traffic & lead reports

    Google Business Profile optimisation, NAP consistency, local citations, reviews strategy and quality backlinks from Maldivian directories.
