Invisible on Google
Overseas buyers search industry keywords, first 5 pages are competitors. Verdant's English site doesn't rank, Alibaba only ranks within Alibaba.
Manufacturing B2B·Mfg B2B · 24-week build
Verdant · Hardware export hub
China manufacturing B2B's biggest overseas blind spot: Alibaba is saturated, but factories don't know how to run Google SEO + their own site. Verdant flipped this.
SEO +12×6 overseas customers in 9 months$1.8M annual contracts
Customer names + data are written-permission released. Some sensitive data masked.
The challenge
Three things factories never do.
02
Inquiries arrive, no follow-up
Slow email replies + translation gaps + no case studies to show buyers. Conversion <1%.
03
English site is a translation
Their English site was a machine-translated Chinese site. Overseas buyers tab out as soon as they read it.

We sat on Alibaba for 5 years, inquiries dried up. Thought it was the industry. Cloubay rebuilt the site + SEO + inquiry automation — now buyers google us directly and come to us. This is what going overseas should look like.
