The hard truth

Great work doesn't matter if nobody can find you.

You do better work than half your competition. So why are they getting the calls? Because when a customer searches "excavator near me," they show up first — and you don't.

01

You're buried on page 3

93% of people never scroll past the first page of Google. If you're not in the top results, you're invisible to almost every customer searching right now.

02

Your competitors aren't better — just more visible

The contractor ranking #1 isn't winning because of skill. They're winning because someone optimized their online presence. That's a fixable problem.

03

Search is changing fast

Customers now ask ChatGPT and Google AI "who's the best contractor near me?" If your business isn't built to be that answer, you're already falling behind.

Questions

Straight answers.

How much does SEO for a contractor cost in Halifax? +

RankWright Digital charges $750/month (Get Found tier) for contractors starting from scratch on local SEO in Halifax and Atlantic Canada. Mid-tier (Dominate) is $1,500/month and includes AEO and AI lead capture. Top-tier (Market Leader) is $2,500/month with a 24/7 AI receptionist and multi-location growth. All packages are month-to-month — no contracts, cancel anytime.

How long does SEO take to work for a contractor? +

For a contractor in Halifax or Atlantic Canada, expect to see Google Business Profile ranking improvements within 30 days, page-one rankings for at least one local keyword within 90 days, and meaningful organic call/lead growth between months 3 and 6. AEO citations in Google AI Overviews typically appear after content has been published and indexed for 60–120 days.

What is AEO and why does my contracting business need it? +

AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is the practice of structuring your website content so AI search tools — Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT search, Perplexity, and Bing Copilot — cite your business as the source when customers ask questions. For contractors, this matters because more customers now research services through AI before contacting a business. If AI doesn't know you exist, you don't get the call.

Do you only work with contractors in Halifax? +

RankWright Digital is based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and works with contractors, trades, and service pros across all of Atlantic Canada — Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador. We work with landscaping, excavation, paving, roofing, painting, masonry, pressure washing, lawn care, welding, concrete, detailing, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and other service-based businesses whose customers find them through Google.

Do I have to sign a contract? +

No. RankWright Digital does not require contracts. All packages are month-to-month and can be cancelled at any time. We believe in earning your business every month.

What makes RankWright Digital different from other SEO agencies? +

Three things. First, we publish our prices — no "contact us for a quote" games. Second, we bake AI lead capture, automated reviews, and a 24/7 AI receptionist into our packages instead of selling them as add-ons. Third, we are built specifically for contractors, trades, and service pros — not generic "small business SEO." Real proof: our Halifax client Doucet Landscaping ranks #1 organically for "excavation cost halifax" and is cited in Google's AI Overview.
