Results — full year 2025​

The 3-month window tells a sharper story. Average position dropped from 43 to 21.7 — pages that were buried on page 4–5 are climbing to page 2–3. CTR doubled in the same period, showing that clicks are accelerating as rankings improve.

The compound effect of SEO is clearly kicking in. Impressions are converting at a higher rate, and the pipeline of content is maturing into a reliable acquisition channel.

How we did it

City-first content architecture

Market research is a geographically fragmented search space in India — buyers search by city. We built dedicated landing pages for Delhi, Pune, Kolkata, and pan-India, each structured to match the exact intent of local buyers sourcing research partners rather than general researchers.

Niche vertical targeting

Political survey companies are a high-value sub-vertical with strong search demand and almost no SEO-savvy competition. We identified “top 10 political survey companies in india” as a breakout opportunity — it now delivers 205 clicks with a 1,371-impression footprint. Vertical niche pages punch well above their weight in this space.

Brand SERP ownership

Every branded search variant — “surveykshan,” “xurveykshan,” “surveykshan research” — was accounted for. Branded queries now drive ~32% of all clicks, a signal of growing brand recognition. Google Business Profile optimisation, schema markup, and entity SEO all contributed to locking down page 1 for every branded variation.

Traffic surge: Apr → Sep 2025 peak

Search Console shows a clear inflection from April 2025 — impressions and clicks climbing steeply through August and September. This is the compounding effect of 6+ months of content and authority-building materialising at once. The post-peak stabilisation is typical as rankings settle and the next content layer builds momentum.

Untapped opportunity in the data

"market research companies in india"

6,389 impressions

Only 62 clicks. A broad, high-volume term with significant CTR headroom — better title tags and meta descriptions could multiply clicks from this single query alone.

"market research companies in pune"

5,819 impressions

The #1 query by volume with zero clicks — classic broad head-term problem. A title rewrite and UX improvements to match search intent could turn this dormant asset into a top traffic driver.

"market research in delhi"

352 impressions

Position 1.5 with zero clicks — a clear title/intent mismatch. One rewrite could unlock consistent high-intent leads from Delhi, where the site already ranks at the top.

"arket research agencies firms kolkata"

116 impressions

Position 2.1 with zero clicks. One page optimisation away from generating consistent Kolkata leads — the ranking is already there, the title just needs to match intent.

What Our Clients Are Expressing About Their Growth Experience

“Ranking #1 in Delhi for market research queries — ahead of agencies that have been around for decades — was something we didn’t think was possible this quickly.”
