Contractor SEO

SEO for contractors.

Plans run $950 to $2,500 a month, month to month, no setup fee. We get contractors to the top of Google in the towns they actually work in, then we keep them there.

What you get

What contractor SEO actually involves.

Google Business Profile

The profile is where most contractor calls come from. We fill it out properly, post to it, and keep it clean.

Pages for what you do

A real page for every service and every town you work in, written so Google knows exactly what you do and where.

Reviews on autopilot

A text goes out after the job. Reviews are the biggest lever on the map pack and most shops never ask.

Site speed and mobile

Your customers are standing in a driveway on a phone. If the page is slow they hit back and call the next guy.

Citations and listings

Your name, address and number the same everywhere, so Google trusts which business you are.

Calls tracked, not clicks

You get a dashboard and a monthly report that shows calls and booked jobs, not impressions.

Why most contractors are invisible.

Most contractors have a profile they set up once and a website somebody built for them years ago. Nothing points at the other, the service pages do not exist, and the last review is from 2021. Google has no reason to put you ahead of the shop down the road, so it does not.

Contractor SEO is not complicated, it is just work nobody on the tools has time for. Fix the profile, build the pages for the jobs you want, get the reviews coming in, keep the listings consistent. Do that for a few months straight and the phone starts going. We did it for Doucet, who now sits at number one in Halifax for excavation searches, and for PropertyWorx in the Annapolis Valley.

If you want the map pack specifically, that is local SEO. If you want to be the name ChatGPT gives when somebody asks who to hire, that is AI search. Most contractors need both, and both are in the Dominate program.

The numbers

Where the calls actually go.

When somebody Googles your trade in your town, almost every call goes to the businesses sitting at the very top.

Questions

Straight answers.

How much does contractor SEO cost?
Ours runs $950 to $2,500 a month with no setup fee and no contract. Get Found is $950, Dominate is $1,500 and Market Leader is $2,500. The prices are posted on the site because you should not have to sit through a call to hear a number.
How long before I see more calls?
Most contractors start seeing it in 60 to 90 days. Reviews and the Google profile move first, the service pages take a bit longer. It builds instead of stopping the day you stop paying, which is the whole point of it over ads.
Is SEO for contractors different from regular SEO?
The work is the same shape but the weighting is completely different. For a contractor the Google profile, the reviews and the town pages do most of the lifting. Blog posts and national keywords do almost none. An agency that treats you like an online store will spend your money in the wrong place.
Do I need a new website?
Not always, and we will tell you straight in the free audit. Sometimes the site is fine and the profile is the problem. If the site is slow, not mobile friendly, or has no service pages, that is when a rebuild pays for itself.
What trades do you work with?
Excavation, landscaping, roofing, concrete, pressure washing, HVAC, renovations and most home service trades. If your customers find you on Google, this works.
