Write “borehole drilling” and “borehole pump”

In 2025, South Africans searched “borehole pump” (66) and “borehole drilling” (49) far more than “water survey” (1), “borehole drillers” (0) or “borehole installation” (0). These are Google’s yearly averages for one comparison. Use the words people type: “borehole drilling” and your town in your page title, and list pumps if you supply them.
