What we do each month.

Local SEO is a handful of things done properly and consistently. Here is the list.

  • S-01

    Google Business Profile

    The right primary category, every service listed, real photos added regularly and posts that show you are active. This drives most Maps results.

  • S-02

    Service and city pages

    One useful page for each service in each area you want work from, with your projects from that area where you have them.

  • S-03

    Reviews, steadily

    A simple text-message ask after each job, with a direct link. More recent reviews help you rank and help people choose you.

  • S-04

    Citations and listings

    Your name, address and phone made consistent across the directories Google cross-checks, like Yelp, BBB, Houzz and Angi.

  • S-05

    Technical SEO

    Speed, mobile layout, structured data, sitemaps and redirects, set up so Google can read every page correctly.

  • S-06

    AI search readiness

    Clear, factual pages that AI assistants like ChatGPT and Google’s AI answers can understand and cite when people ask for a contractor.

What we won’t do.

Contractors get burned by SEO sales pitches all the time. Here is where we draw the line.

  • No guaranteed #1 rankings

    Nobody controls Google. Anyone who guarantees a top spot is guessing or selling something else. We commit to the work and report the results honestly.

  • No fake reviews, ever

    We help you ask real customers. Writing or buying reviews breaks Google’s rules and the FTC’s, and it can sink a business.

  • No mystery work

    Every month you see what we did, why we did it and what it produced, in plain English.

SEO questions.

How long until SEO works?
Google Business Profile changes can show up within weeks. Ranking new pages in competitive areas usually takes three to six months. We show progress every month along the way.
Do I need a new website to do SEO?
Not always. But a slow or thin site holds SEO back, so we often recommend fixing the site first. Your free preview shows what that would look like.
What do you report on?
Calls, form leads, Maps and search visibility for your target jobs and towns, reviews gained, and what we plan to do next month.
Can you cover several towns or counties?
Yes. We build a service-area structure around the places you actually work, and adjust as you grow into new ones.
