The problem
Tired of SEO agencies that don't understand Kota Kinabalu?
Rankings, but no calls
Many agencies chase national blog traffic. Real Estate Agents in Kota Kinabalu need people close by searching "property agent", not readers from the other end of the country.
Losing "near me" searches
PropertyGuru, iProperty and Mudah own most listing searches, so agents must win agent-name and area searches.
Messy listings and schema
Different addresses or phone numbers on Google, PropertyGuru and old directories confuse Google and push your real estate agency down the map in Luyang.
Rising cost per lead
Unregistered agents and duplicate listings confuse Google and dilute genuine profiles. Paying per click for every Kota Kinabalu lead gets expensive fast.
How we work

Google Business Profile optimisation

- Name, address and phone made identical everywhere
