We just added "Pulse" and "Updates" to AtaPata.pk - would love your feedback

Hey everyone,

We run AtaPata.pk, a Pakistani local business directory. A lot of people use it to find solar installers in their city but one thing that kept coming up was, where do I check prices before I go to a dealer?

So we built AtaPata Pulse, a free daily solar price tracker covering:

169 solar panels — Longi, Jinko, Canadian, JA, Trina and more
77 inverters — Fronus, Inverex, Growatt, Simtek and more
179 batteries — AGS, Osaka, Phoenix, Volta and more

You can filter by brand, wattage, type (hybrid/on-grid/off-grid), capacity and sort by price. All prices are market reference rates collected from dealers, not fixed prices, just a baseline so you know what's reasonable before negotiating.

We also started covering solar news and policy updates on our blog. Everything is free, no signup required.

Happy to answer any questions. Also open to feedback, what data would be most useful for this community? Installer reviews? City-wise price breakdowns? Let me know.

AtaPata - Updates

Thank you.

Introducing free local business directory for Lahore: 51,000+ listings for doctors, lawyers,solar panels, rent-a-car, wedding halls and more

First, thank you to the mods for approving this post, really appreciate it.

Hey r/lahore

For the past year we've been working on AtaPata.pk, a free local business directory built specifically for Pakistan.

The problem we are trying to solve: finding a doctor's phone number, a lawyer's address or a wedding hall's contact in Lahore means either asking around on WhatsApp or dealing with platforms that hide contact info behind signups and contact forms. AtaPata puts everything in one place, openly and for free.

**What's on AtaPata for Lahore right now:**

- 51,000+ listings

- Doctors (78 specialties): dermatologists, cardiologists, dentists and more

- Hospitals and diagnostic labs

- Lawyers

- Wedding halls and marquees

- solar panels

- Real estate agents

- Car rentals, home repair, tuition centers and more

No signup required. No contact forms. Just search, find the number and call. Would love feedback from you, if you search for something and can't find it, let me know. Still actively adding more listings and categories. Also open to collaborations with local businesses, listing and collaboration is completely free.

Website is being heavily crawled by SEO bots, what to do?

3 Weeks ago, We launched a directory website listing local businesses with .pk domain. Since the last week, Semrush, Ahref, Moz, Amazon bots are heavily crawling the site, shall we let them crawl? For now, our resources can handle the crawling, but time to time it do get exhausted. Will the bots stop crawling once full site crawled or will they keep on crawling?

Launched this 2 weeks ago and now scaling it.

AtaPata.pk

Finding reliable contact info for any business in Pakistan is a nightmare. Data is scattered, hidden behind signups, or locked inside platform contact forms.

So I built something.

Introducing AtaPata.pk, Pakistan's local business directory with 100,000+ listings across Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad and 5 more cities. Doctors, hospitals, lawyers, car rentals, wedding halls, labs and more with real addresses, phone numbers and timings. No signup. No contact forms. Just the information you need.

6 months of collecting, cleaning and organizing data, finally it's live.

PS: We are actively looking for collaborations with businesses across Pakistan, listed or not. Getting listed on AtaPata is completely free, no hidden fees, no catch. Collaboration is also free, just two parties helping each other grow. Drop me a message or contact me at hello@atapata.pk

Can anyone explain this strange behavior of Google?

Hello Everyone,

2 weeks ago I launched a directory website for a specific country. In the first 5-7 days, Google heavily indexed my site and results also appeared on the first page. Initially, I had around 70,000 listings + 2 blogs. 40,000 links and 1 blog was indexed in the first 7 days. 4000 clicks, 280,000 impressions, and average position of 7. This all happened in the first 7 days. After that google stopped indexing. I added 30,000 more listings + 25 more blogs.

Total listings 100,000 and 27 total blogs. AI is saying, this is normal for directory website and also related to budget allocation for the new website. Google exhausted it's scraping/indexing budget and now will take time to index them.

On GSC, I can see "Discovered - currently not indexed" for 28,000 links, and "Crawled - currently not indexed" for 2,000 links. That makes total 70,000 links (initial listings of my page), but then I added 30,000 more urls but no mention of those anywhere. Even though I re-submitted sitemap.

On my sitemap, I've added pagination for each category, pagination is for every 5000 links. I've done schema on each page. On each page, organization and website is by default. For category page, I've breadcrumblist, collectionPage, Itemlist. In CollectionPage, I've about, description, language and all the important stuff. On listing page, I've breadcumblist, physician/legalservice (depending on category), FAQs schema. On blog, I've BlogPosting, Breadcrumblist, FAQ schema.

When I individually submit any link, Live Test says "My link is available to google" and it can read my breadcrumblist and all the details smoothly. I applied for indexing but still no update after 10 days.

Any hints/tips for me?
