Challenges Faced by Listing.my
Listing.my connects users with businesses across a wide range of categories and locations, but managing SEO at this scale came with challenges around search visibility, listing page quality, topical relevance, and turning organic searches into meaningful business discovery.
As the directory continued to grow, Listing.my needed a more scalable SEO approach to strengthen its presence across different competitive niches.
Scaling Category and Location Visibility
Listing.my needed to strengthen its visibility across a growing number of category and location searches, while keeping each page relevant and useful to searchers.
Impact: Without a scalable approach, valuable category and location searches could remain untapped, limiting the site’s overall organic reach.
Improving Listing Page Value
With many business listings following a similar structure, Listing.my needed to make individual pages more informative, relevant and useful for both search engines and potential customers.
Impact: Low-value or repetitive listing pages may struggle to rank and give users little reason to explore or take action.
Building Topical Authority in Different Niches
Covering a wide range of industries meant Listing.my had to build enough depth and relevance across different niches to establish stronger topical authority.
Impact: Without sufficient topical depth, the site could find it harder to compete with established industry websites and specialist directories.
Converting Organic Discovery
Beyond bringing in more visitors, Listing.my needed to turn organic search traffic into meaningful business discovery, from finding the right listing to taking the next step.
Impact: Without a clear path from search to business discovery, increased organic traffic may not translate into meaningful user engagement or enquiries.
Growing Listing.my’s Search Visibility to 2.12M Impressions in Just 8 Months
Applying Rankpage’s SERP-DT methodology, Listing.my grew from 192 clicks and 40.4K impressions in January 2026 to 3.13K clicks and 476K impressions in August, representing a 1,530% increase in clicks and 1,078% increase in impressions within eight months.
