We work online from Bangkok, over LINE and email. Send us your business name and the beach you are on, and we will check where you show up around the island, free.
Villa and resort sites tend to share the same faults. None of them show on the screen, but together they leave Google unsure what you rent, what it costs and which beach it is on. These are the ones a website audit turns up most.
The check starts with one link. Send the site over LINE and we name its three main problems, free. It works for WordPress, for sites built on a booking platform and for custom code. Your developer can work from the list, or we fix it in one go.
Profile posts will not fix any of this; the site has to change. A page for each villa, page titles that name the beach and the kind of stay, prices written as text and photos sized for a phone are what get a site found for searches like "pool villa Bophut".
On an island, distance decides more than most owners expect. A guest in Chaweng and a guest in Lamai type the same words, but Google starts from what is near each of them. A business with the wrong service area, or a site that never names its beach, quietly drops out of half the island.
| Beach | What it is like | What the profile should say |
|---|---|---|
| Chaweng | The busiest beach, with hotels, restaurants and bars packed close | The beach in the description, and new reviews every week, because the competition is next door |
| Lamai | The second big beach, with families and guests staying a week or more | Hours that are right, and photos that show where you are |
| Bophut | Fisherman's Village: restaurants, small hotels and the Friday evening walking street | An English menu with prices, and your Friday night hours |
| Maenam and Bang Rak | Quieter beaches, villas, long stays, and the piers for Koh Phangan and Koh Tao | How far the pier and the airport are, which guests ask before booking |
| Nathon | The island town and the mainland ferry, where residents search in Thai | A description and service list in Thai as well |
| Lipa Noi and Taling Ngam | The sunset side: villas and retreats guests travel to on purpose | Web pages that answer the searches made before the flight, more than a map fight |
Businesses that go to the customer, such as private chefs, drivers or villa cleaning, can use a service-area profile: list the beaches you really cover, and your home address stays private.
Samui is busiest from late December to April, with a second peak in July and August. The heavy rain comes from about October to December, just as Phuket's west coast starts its high season. A profile you start on today needs two to three months to climb, which makes September the month to begin.
Start around September for the late-December peak
The wet months are for groundwork: a page for each villa, reviews from the last peak's guests, photos that match the rooms. By December the profile and the site are ready for the people searching.
Villas, restaurants, spas and rentals win customers at different moments. Some are chosen before the guest boards the plane, others on the map in five minutes.
Guests often find a villa on Booking.com or Agoda, then search its name on Google to compare. A site of your own with a page per villa, real prices and a chat button turns some of them into direct bookings, with no commission to pay.
Start with: a hotel and resort website
Dinner on Samui is chosen on a phone, from a sunbed. The profile needs the right hours, photos of the real dishes, an English menu with prices and a reply under every review.
Start with: Local SEO
Island spas compete on photos of the real rooms and fresh reviews. Yoga retreats compete in search while guests are still at home, and a page per programme with its dates, price and inclusions is what ranks there.
Start with: a spa website
Rentals are searched on arrival, off the plane or the ferry, by people who want wheels today. The shop with its pin in the right place, a clear daily price and recent reviews gets the first message.
Start with: a rental website
Trips to Ang Thong, Koh Tao or Koh Phangan are compared in search before the plane lands, not on the map. Each trip needs its own page with the departure time, the pick-up points, what is included and what happens when the sea is rough.
Start with: a tour websiteBeach weddings, a Muay Thai camp, a clinic, a villa sales agency: message us with what you run and we will look at where your guests find businesses like yours.
What moves a ranking is the profile, the reviews and the site, not where the agency or the consultant keeps an office. We work online from Bangkok, the work sits in your Google account and on your site, and each month's map shows where you rank from 25 spots around your door.
You can cancel a monthly plan in any month. Each job is explained on a page of its own: Local SEO, Google Business Profile setup and monthly SEO. No website yet? We build those for island businesses too: see the website packages. Got a branch off the island? The other cities we cover are below.
No. The whole job runs over LINE and email, from the first chat to the monthly report. If the site needs new photos, your own phone usually does the job, and we send a list of the shots we need.
Yes. Send the link for a free SEO check first, then choose a one-off fix: Essential at ฿2,500 or Full at ฿5,900. If the site has other trouble, such as a white screen or a plugin conflict, see WordPress repairs.
Usually not, when the rates only appear inside the engine's frame. Write the starting price, the villa's size and what is included as text on your own page, and let the booking button take guests to the engine as before. Guests get the facts, and Google gets something it can read.
Usually two to three months before your map position moves by a measurable amount. A crowded category, such as restaurants in Chaweng, can take longer.
Around September, for the peak that starts in late December. Start in December and the map usually starts to move around March, with busy weeks still ahead.
Yes. The simple version is a LINE or WhatsApp button and an enquiry form on every villa page. A booking system with an availability calendar is quoted in a chat. You keep selling on the platforms as before; the site is there for the guests who look you up by name.
Build the profile around a place customers can really meet you, such as a staffed counter at the pier or your shop. Without one, hide the address and list the areas you pick guests up from as the service area. The islands you sail to belong on each trip page, never as a pin on an island where you have no office.
Tell us your business name and your beach. We check your map position around the island for free, and if you send the site link too, we name its three main problems.
