Local SEO · for contractors and trades

Local SEO for contractors that brings the calls to you.

Most SEO advice is written for online stores. You do not sell online. You show up, do the work, and get paid. Google treats you as a service-area business, which is a different game. We play that game so ready customers find you and call you, not the four other guys who bought the same shared lead.

Why regular SEO does not work for contractors

Blog-and-online-store SEO misses the two things that actually decide whether a contractor shows up. Most agencies skip both.

You are done chasing shared leads. Buy a lead from Angi or Thumbtack and three or four other contractors get the exact same one. You race to call first and still get beaten down on price. Rank your own site and the call comes to you, and only you.
Google ranks you by where you are and who you are near. Someone two towns over sees a different map than someone on your street. If your site and profile do not tell Google exactly where you work, you vanish the second the searcher moves down the road.

What we actually do to get you ranking

Four things, done right, in plain terms:

A real page for every area you serve. Not one "service areas" list. A page for each town with the neighborhoods you cover, so Google has a reason to show you there.
A site that loads fast on a phone. Most people find you standing in their driveway on their phone. A slow site loses them, and Google notices. We also add the code Google reads to understand your business (the part you never see, but it matters).
Your name, address, and phone matching everywhere. Google trusts you more when your business info reads the same on Google, the trade directories, and your site. When it does not match, you slip.
Links from places that count for your trade. Local and trade links tell Google you are the real deal in your area. We go get them. No spammy junk that gets you penalized later.

Want the map side handled too? That is our Google Business Profile setup. Need the website itself? We build a site you own or one on our platform.

Built for the trades where one job pays for it

This works whether you are a general contractor, a roofer, a remodeler, a plumber, an HVAC company, or an electrician. The jobs are big, the competition is local, and one extra job a month covers the whole cost.

The honest part

Local SEO is not instant and it is not magic. It takes a couple of months to move, and it works when you keep showing up. Anyone promising you the number one spot next week is lying to you. What we do is real work that stacks, so the calls come in without you buying every single one.

Why this is winnable right now

We pulled 13,579 contractor websites and looked at what Google actually reads. 29% had no working website. 55% had no local schema, the code that tells Google what they do and where. Most were invisible in the exact spot a ready customer looks first.

That is your opening. Most of your competition is not doing this work, so the ones who do get the calls. One remodeler we worked with went from 17% to 41% of their map covered in the top ten in 55 days. Their invisible spots dropped from 67% to 27%.

Common questions

How is this different from buying leads on Angi or Thumbtack?

Those leads are shared. You buy one and three or four other contractors buy the same one, so you race to call first and still compete on price. When your own site ranks, the call comes to you and only you. You are not paying per lead and you are not sharing it.

How long until the calls start?

Local SEO takes a couple of months to move, not days. It works when you keep showing up. Anyone promising you the top spot next week is not being honest with you.

Do you guarantee a number one ranking?

No, and nobody honest can. What we do guarantee on our Growth and Metro plans is page one within six months for at least one search we agree on, or your monthly fee back, as long as you follow the plan.

What does it cost?

Our SEO plans start at $497 a month and include managed Google Ads. There are three levels, Local, Growth, and Metro, depending on how much of your market you want to cover. You can see all three on the SEO plans page.

Do I need a new website first?

Not always. If your site is decent and fast, we work with it. If it is slow or it does not turn visitors into calls, we build one that does, either a site you own or one on our platform.
