§01The market

The country’s financial center.

Makati is the Philippines’ premier financial and corporate hub, anchored by Ayala Avenue’s high-rise towers, banks, and multinational headquarters. Around that CBD core, Poblacion has built its own nightlife and dining identity, while everyday residential barangays run a separate, quieter economy entirely.

01 · Ayala Avenue

The nation’s financial core

Corporate clients search Google for vendors and services differently than anywhere else in the country.

02 · Poblacion

A real nightlife & dining district

Poblacion has its own distinct reputation, separate from the office towers a few blocks away.

03 · Genuine national competition

Every major brand wants Makati visibility

Businesses here compete not just locally but against national and multinational brands for the same searches.

04 · Everyday retail

Beyond the CBD

Residential Makati barangays search daily for clinics, food, and services separate from the financial district.

§02How Makati searches

Rank for the CBD, Poblacion, or the neighborhood.

Makati runs several distinct markets at once — the financial district, Poblacion nightlife, and residential neighborhoods all search differently. We tune your Google Business Profile and pages around the one you actually serve.

§05From the field

From the businesses
who showed up.

Before working with StriveStrat, our business was hard to find on Google. After their local SEO services, we began showing up on both Google Search and Maps in Batangas. Most of our new customers now come from people actively searching for our services.
