For many Indian businesses, IndiaMART (B2B) and JustDial (local services) bring regular enquiries. These platforms have their own search systems, and their listings often rank on Google too. Optimising your listings helps you appear higher and convert more enquiries.
IndiaMART: for B2B suppliers
Complete your company profile
• Company name, address, GST and year of establishment
• Clear business description: what you make, capacities and industries served
• Certifications and quality standards

Optimise product listings
• Specific product names using buyer terms: “3 HP Openwell Submersible Pump” rather than “Pump Model X”
• Detailed specifications: material, size, capacity, power, finish
• Multiple clear photos from different angles
• Price or price range where possible; listings with prices often attract more enquiries
• Minimum order quantity and delivery details

Buyers often contact several suppliers. Fast responses and follow-up improve conversion and may improve your visibility on the platform.
JustDial: for local services
• Accurate business name, address, phone and hours
