In 2020, Giridhar Pai Associates took its first steps into the world. Armed with passion and a revolutionary product – the FLYght UV LED Insect Light Trap – we were determined to make a mark on the pest control industry. But like many startups, our journey began with a stumble.
Following advice from a seasoned industry veteran, we launched an e-commerce website, www.flyght.in, developed in partnership with Webchirpy. It was a pioneering move, the first Indian pest control website to offer online ordering of ILTs. However, despite our hopes, the orders didn’t come. For a whole year, the website remained a digital ghost town.
Disappointed but undeterred, we made a pivotal decision. We closed the e-commerce functionality and reimagined our online presence. Our website’s second version, www.giridharpaiassociates.com was born, with a new mission: to become a leading resource for the international pest control community.
How the GPA website reflects the company’s core values:
Our company website’s transformation wasn’t just about a new name and design but a reflection of our core values in every aspect of the website:
· Speed: We believe in swift responses and efficient service to our customers. Our website mirrors speed, loading quickly on any device, ensuring visitors get the information they need without delay on a smartphone or a desktop device.
· Simplicity: Our products are designed for ease of use, and so is our website. We’ve prioritized clear navigation and an uncluttered layout, making it effortless for visitors to find what they need from the well organised website sections.
· Sustainability: We’re committed to keeping our website fresh and relevant. Through a continuous content creation process, we regularly update and revise information, ensuring visitors always find something new and valuable.
· Usability: Just like our user-friendly products, we designed our website for effortless navigation. Information is readily accessible, and the layout is intuitive, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable browsing experience.
· Comprehensiveness: We believe in providing complete and transparent information about our company and its offerings. Our website offers detailed product descriptions, images, videos, specifications, and FAQs, empowering visitors to make informed decisions.
· Inter-connectedness: We’ve created a dynamic online ecosystem. Our website links to our YouTube channel, featuring product demonstrations and insights. We also connect our website content with the websites of our vendor partners, distributors, and valuable information sources, creating a comprehensive hub for pest control knowledge.
Over the past five years, we’ve nurtured our website, adding fresh content, revising old information, and refining its structure. The launch of our YouTube channel in 2023 added another dimension, allowing us to share engaging video content and further connect with our audience.
Our website’s blog section has become a cornerstone of our content strategy. With regular blogposts offering in-depth insights into food pests, prevention, and monitoring, we’ve built a rich library of valuable information. Today, we proudly boast the most extensive blog section of any Indian pest control website having reached our fiftieth blogpost on 23 December 2024.
