Digital marketing in Hyderabad, two markets in one city

The technology corridor and the rest of Hyderabad behave like completely different markets. Trying to serve both with the same pages produces something that convinces neither.

The Hyderabad market

HITEC City and the surrounding technology corridor behave like an enterprise B2B market: long research cycles, LinkedIn-heavy, and search terms that describe problems rather than services. Someone searching how to reduce customer churn is closer to buying than someone searching your product category, and almost nobody targets the first group. The rest of the city behaves like a normal Indian metro, where local search, map pack presence and mobile page speed decide who gets the call. Hyderabad also has a genuinely large pharmaceutical and life sciences sector, and search in these categories is heavily constrained by what you can legally claim. Advertising in health categories is subject to platform restrictions that catch businesses out after they have already spent money.
