I recently audited a D2C brand in Mumbai that was ranking for 1,000+ keywords but saw its conversion rate tank. The reason? A massive gap between their "Global SEO" and "Indian Search Intent." In 2026, the Indian consumer isn’t just looking for a product; they are looking for "Vishwaas" (Trust) —specifically via direct AI summaries in Hindi/English and peer-validated proofs on YouTube Shorts and Instagram.
