Digital marketing agency in Karachi — SEO, social media & ads

Promptivia is a Karachi digital marketing agency running SEO, Google Business Profile, Google Ads, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok ads and WhatsApp lead funnels in English, Urdu and Roman Urdu. In Pakistan, SEO typically costs PKR 30,000–300,000 a month and social media management PKR 15,000–75,000 a month, with ad spend paid to the platforms separately; we charge a fixed monthly fee agreed upfront.

What works in Karachi marketing

Karachi is Pakistan's largest and most competitive market, and the way Karachi customers buy shapes every campaign:

Social discovers, WhatsApp closes

Facebook, Instagram, TikTok → WhatsApp

Most Karachi consumer purchases start on social and finish in a WhatsApp chat. Ads, bios and posts should all end in a WhatsApp conversation, answered within minutes — automated where the volume demands it.

Orders, not clicks

COD e-commerce

With most orders paid on delivery and a large share refused, a campaign that buys cheap orders can lose money. We optimise for confirmed, delivered orders and use order-confirmation flows to filter the rest.

Google Maps decides local

"near me" searches across the city

For clinics, restaurants, schools and services, the three map results take most of the clicks. A complete Google Business Profile, steady reviews and area pages usually beat ads on cost per lead within a few months.

Three languages, one customer

English, Urdu, Roman Urdu

Karachi customers switch between languages. Ads and pages written in Roman Urdu often outperform polished English for mass-market products; English still wins for B2B and premium.

Questions, answered

How much does SEO cost in Karachi?

SEO in Karachi typically costs PKR 20,000–50,000 a month from a freelancer, PKR 50,000–120,000 a month from an agency for a small business, and PKR 120,000–300,000+ for e-commerce or competitive national campaigns. Below roughly PKR 50,000 a month it is hard to deliver consistent white-hat work on competitive terms. We quote a fixed monthly fee.

Are Facebook and Instagram ads better than Google Ads in Pakistan?

For most consumer products in Pakistan, yes — Facebook, Instagram and TikTok create demand cheaply and close on WhatsApp. Google Ads works better when people already search for what you sell, such as clinics, services, B2B and urgent needs. Many Karachi businesses run Meta ads for volume and Google for high-intent leads.

How long does SEO take in Pakistan?

Google Maps results for a well-optimised business profile often improve within 4–8 weeks. Ranking organically for competitive Karachi or Pakistan-wide terms usually takes 3–6 months. Paid ads produce leads from the first week, which is why most businesses run both.

Should I advertise in Urdu or Roman Urdu?

Test both. Roman Urdu often wins for mass-market consumer products because it reads the way customers text; English suits B2B, premium and professional services; Urdu script works well for some audiences and for search. We run language variants as separate ads so each is measured on its own results.

Can digital marketing reduce COD returns?

Yes. Optimise campaigns for delivered orders rather than placed orders, target areas and audiences with better delivery rates, and confirm every COD order on WhatsApp before dispatch. Together these usually cut refused orders and the courier charges that come with them.

Do you work with businesses outside Karachi?

Yes. Our team is in Karachi, and we run campaigns for businesses in Lahore, Islamabad and across Pakistan remotely, as well as for clients in the UAE, UK and US.
