Reviews matter

Ask happy customers for reviews and reply to every one, positive or negative.

Social proof beyond Google

Facebook remains hugely important in the Philippines. Keep your page active and consistent with your website and profile.

Fast mobile pages

Keep pages light so they load quickly on mobile data.
