SEO Consultant Madagascar

SEO Consultant Madagascar

Partner with Korhogo Agency to unlock sustainable organic growth across the Red Island’s dynamic digital landscape. As a dedicated SEO consultant for brands operating in and beyond Madagascar, we combine local market fluency, multilingual expertise, and data-driven strategy to help your organization attract qualified visitors, convert demand, and build durable visibility in search. From Antananarivo to Nosy Be, from hospitality and travel to agriculture, manufacturing, NGOs, and technology, our team architects search programs that fit real business models, operational realities, and the unique cultural fabric of Madagascar.

Why a Madagascar-focused SEO partner changes outcomes

Search behavior in Madagascar reflects a rare mix of linguistic nuance, mobile-first usage, and region-specific discovery patterns. Malagasy and French are widely used online, with English increasingly important for international commerce, donor relations, and tourism. Many buyers journey from informal social referrals to Google queries and then to messaging apps. Map packs, reviews, and WhatsApp click-to-chat often finish the conversion. Aligning your web presence with this hybrid path requires a grounded understanding of how people actually find and evaluate services locally—and how global audiences evaluate Malagasy providers from abroad.

That’s where Korhogo Agency helps. We translate your growth goals into tactical search roadmaps that bridge language, device constraints, and seasonality. We tune websites for fluctuating mobile speeds and patchy 3G/4G in certain regions, implement structured data so your offers and addresses surface in rich results and map listings, and prioritize content that answers intent in Malagasy, French, and English. We orchestrate editorial calendars around tourism peaks, agricultural cycles, conference schedules, school calendars, and cyclonic seasons that shift demand. We support exporters who need visibility in Europe, the Middle East, and the Indian Ocean, and local retailers who must rank in Antananarivo, Toamasina, Antsirabe, Mahajanga, Fianarantsoa, Toliara, and beyond.

Most crucially, we integrate search with your broader commercial operations. SEO is not a bolt-on tactic; it is a channel that touches product pages, inventory, pricing, multilingual support, delivery coverage, and how staff pick up new inquiries. Our role is to design the connective tissue between search, website operations, sales messaging, and post-purchase trust signals so your brand moves with confidence from first impression to booked revenue.

What Korhogo Agency delivers

Discovery and diagnostic foundation

  • Stakeholder interviews to capture goals, constraints, and success criteria across leadership, sales, and customer support.
  • Baseline visibility benchmarking: branded vs. unbranded queries, top pages, SERP features, and competitive landscapes in Malagasy, French, and English.
  • Technical health check: crawlability, indexation, sitemaps, robots directives, Core Web Vitals, mobile rendering, duplication, and schema coverage.
  • Content and intent mapping: topic clusters, searcher questions, multilingual gaps, and page-level on-page tuning opportunities.
  • Commercial alignment: analysis of products/services, margins, capacity, seasonality, and offline demand drivers that search should amplify.

Technical excellence for real-world conditions

We build a resilient infrastructure tuned for mobile bandwidth variances and international reach. Our technical approach prioritizes fast loads on entry-level Android devices, caching strategies that survive intermittent connectivity, and edge delivery that serves both local and offshore audiences with minimal latency.

  • Site architecture: flat, crawlable hierarchies, logical internal linking, pagination control, and scalable URL structures for categories, regions, and languages.
  • Performance optimization: image compression, next-gen formats (WebP/AVIF), lazy loading, preloading critical resources, and server-side caching.
  • Reliable hosting: guidance on data centers and CDNs that balance closeness to Madagascar with global audience coverage.
  • Internationalization: correct hreflang for Malagasy/French/English, canonicalization across language variants, and geo-intent alignment.
  • Schema implementation: Organization, LocalBusiness, Hotel, Product, FAQ, Event, Recipe, and JobPosting as needed, to earn rich results and map prominence.
  • CMS mastery: robust setups for WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, PrestaShop, or headless builds; governance to avoid plugin conflicts and regressions.

On-page and content that resonates

We architect a multilingual editorial engine that answers intent, clarifies value, removes friction, and leads to action—while respecting cultural nuance and regional terminology. Our content programs blend evergreen assets with seasonal campaigns, mapping topics to buyer stages and revenue priorities.

  • Search intent research in Malagasy, French, and English, including idioms and regional spellings that shift click behavior.
  • Topic clusters and pillar pages that earn topical depth and internal authority, supported by FAQs, guides, and comparison assets.
  • Conversion-first on-page: headlines that match intent, evidence blocks, pricing alibis, FAQs, trust badges, and action-oriented CTAs.
  • Media strategy: lightweight images and video with transcripts to balance engagement and speed; structured data for eligibility in visuals-rich SERPs.
  • Editorial workflow: briefs, outlines, reviews, and localization steps to keep quality high across three languages without duplicating content.

Authority, partnerships, and digital PR

Search engines assess credibility through signals of reputation, relevance, and real-world connections. We grow your authority through tactful partnerships, mentions, and content formats that make sense for the Malagasy ecosystem and your international stakeholders.

  • Digital PR with regional publishers, tourism boards, trade associations, universities, and NGO ecosystems.
  • Resource-led outreach: data visuals, practical checklists, travel route guides, product standards, and sustainability reports that attract citations.
  • Reputation management: review acquisition playbooks, Google Business Profile enhancement, and response frameworks that turn service into visibility.
  • Compliance and safety: ethical link acquisition that avoids penalties and respects publisher relationships.

Local discovery and maps prominence

For service providers, retailers, medical centers, restaurants, and hotels, proximity signals and map visibility drive footfall and calls. We structure your local presence to win in map packs and localized organic results.

  • Google Business Profile optimization: categories, attributes, services, photos, Q&A, posts, and feature usage tuned to Malagasy and French audiences.
  • Citation management: consistent NAP across Malagasy directories and international platforms.
  • Service area pages: scalable templates for neighborhoods, districts, and cities with genuine local signals and unique value.
  • Review operations: solicitation flows, messaging templates, and service loops that increase both ratings and response speed.

International and export growth

Exporters, tour operators, and B2B suppliers in Madagascar often sell to audiences who search in foreign languages from different time zones. We combine localization with market-specific SERP research to open doors in priority countries, while protecting canonical equity and avoiding duplicate content pitfalls.

  • Market selection and prioritization using volume, competitiveness, and commercial fit.
  • Geo-modified content for long-haul travelers, procurement managers, and distributors.
  • Compliance-aware content for regulated sectors (e.g., health, education, environmental claims).

E-commerce growth that compounds

Merchants need product visibility that converts and can scale. We craft e-commerce architectures that win long-tail intent, protect margin, and simplify feed-based visibility.

  • Category and faceted navigation design that avoids duplication while preserving intent-rich landing pages.
  • Product detail page frameworks: attributes, FAQs, reviews, shipping and returns clarity, and structured data for Product, Offer, and AggregateRating.
  • Inventory-aware SEO: out-of-stock handling, canonicalization, and back-in-stock capture.
  • Shopping feeds alignment between organic and paid listings to compound coverage.

Data, measurement, and reporting

We root decisions in clean data, aligning organic KPIs to commercial truth. Our analytics layer spans setup, QA, and visualization.

  • GA4 configuration: events, conversions, cross-domain tracking, ecommerce, user ID where applicable.
  • Search Console governance: property structure, index coverage, enhancement tracking, international targeting, and URL inspection workflows.
  • Looker Studio dashboards: executive views, editorial trackers, and technical scorecards that tell a clear story.

  • Developer handoffs with annotated tickets and acceptance criteria.

Technical fixes, content creation, structured data, and profile enhancements go live in agile sprints. We set release cadences that match your governance and resourcing.

Use cases across Madagascar and beyond

Tourism and hospitality

Hotels, ecolodges, and tour operators thrive when discovery spans both inspiration and logistics. We create destination hubs for routes like Antananarivo–Andasibe–Tamatave, snorkeling and diving in Nosy Be, or lemur and baobab itineraries. We pair editorial storytelling with practical FAQs (visas, SIM cards, malaria prevention, transfers), harness user-generated content responsibly, and ensure map prominence and review acquisition. This positions you for high-intent bookings and partnerships with international travel media.

Agriculture and export

From vanilla and cloves to lychees and essential oils, we craft buyer-focused resources: quality grades, sustainability certifications, shipping terms, and sample request flows. We optimize for queries in French and English, build trust with certificates and lab analyses, and support outreach to trade associations and buyers. Clear product taxonomy and datasheets let procurement managers convert quickly.

Manufacturing and services

Industrial suppliers, logistics firms, and BPO providers need credibility and clarity. We develop service pages with process walkthroughs, compliance notes, case snapshots, and multilingual RFQ flows. Structured data and reviews from enterprise customers strengthen proof, while content hubs address procurement questions and implementation risks.

Education and NGOs

Donor relations, grant findability, and program pages must meet high standards of transparency. We implement accessible content, measured impact visuals, and multilingual clarity. We align search with fundraising calendars, press coverage, and policy changes, ensuring consistency across regional reports and international communications.

Retail and marketplaces

Omnichannel operations thrive on clear inventory, pickup/delivery coverage, and trustworthy returns information. We build store locators, city pages with localized offers, and product filters that match how Malagasy shoppers search on mobile. We coordinate schema for products and availability to unlock richer visibility.

Technical deep dive: speed, structure, and scale

Real-world conditions in Madagascar demand practical engineering. We plan for variable bandwidth, sudden traffic spikes during seasonal peaks, and multilingual expansion without bloating the codebase.

  • Performance budgets: strict targets for image weights, third-party scripts, and font delivery; deferred loading for non-critical elements.
  • Edge caching and CDN selection: route content efficiently for both local visitors and international buyers, balancing cost and latency.
  • Resilient releases: staging environments, lighthouse baselines, and rollback plans to prevent regressions.
  • Structured internal linking: hub-and-spoke models that scale for destinations, products, or services without orphaning key pages.
  • Programmatic templates: controlled, high-quality page generation for regions, categories, or SKUs—with safeguards against thin or duplicate content.
  • Accessibility: semantic HTML, alt text, and color contrast to meet inclusive standards and improve machine understanding.

Content strategy with cultural fluency

Language choice affects trust and conversion. We plan editorial calendars that reflect how real audiences search and speak—often mixing Malagasy and French terms, sometimes jumping to English for international concepts. We build glossaries to unify terminology and avoid internal inconsistencies. We produce guides that respect local traditions, environmental stewardship, and community interests—because resonance requires care.

  • Editorial pillars: travel and logistics, sourcing and export, community impact, sustainability, and product education.
  • Seasonality mapping: guide production and promotions around school breaks, cyclone season updates, harvest cycles, and peak travel months.
  • Evidence model: field photos, process videos, certifications, testimonials, and third-party citations that verify claims.
  • Conversion narrative: persuasive structure from headline promise to CTA, reinforced by FAQs and risk-reversal messaging.

Measurement, KPIs, and ROI you can trust

We align metrics with commercial truth, not vanity. That means tracking the chain from impression to inquiry to revenue, while respecting privacy and acknowledging on-the-ground conversion realities like messaging app handoffs.

  • Core KPIs: non-branded clicks, qualified leads, bookings, average order value, and contribution margin by channel.
  • SERP surface coverage: organic listings, map packs, images, video, and People Also Ask presence across languages.
  • Quality signals: engagement with key content, scroll depth, FAQ interactions, and lead form completion rates.
  • Attribution clarity: custom UTM conventions for messaging apps, call tracking for phone-first journeys, and assisted conversion views.
  • Reporting cadence: monthly executive summaries, sprint retrospectives, and quarterly strategy resets tied to your calendar.

Risk management and governance

Organic growth must be durable. We design review steps that safeguard your domain, avoid thin expansions, and preserve brand voice across languages. We audit third-party plugins, moderate aggressive interlinking, and decline risky link schemes. When algorithm updates land, we evaluate impact quickly and recalibrate content, UX, and technical factors with clarity and calm.

  • Retainers for ongoing growth: continuous technical upkeep, editorial velocity, and authority development.
  • Project sprints: audits, redesign support, migrations, or market-entry blueprints with clear deliverables and timelines.

  • Pre-migration audits and success criteria.
  • Comprehensive redirect mapping with testing plans.
  • Template-by-template QA across devices and languages.
