- Why It's Hard
Home Services SEO Isn't Like Regular SEO
Most SEO agencies optimize like it’s 2015. Local search for contractors has unique rules — and most agencies get them wrong.
🗺️
The Map Pack Is Its Own Game
Ranking in Google Maps requires a completely different strategy than organic SEO. It's about proximity signals, GBP engagement, and review velocity — not just backlinks.
🏙️
You Serve Multiple Cities
Contractors don't just serve one zip code. Properly ranking across your full service area means geo-targeted content, local landing pages, and citation consistency — all at once.
🤖
AI Overviews Changed Everything
Google's AI-generated answers now appear before any organic results. We optimize your content to appear in those AI summaries so you're visible even before the first click.
⭐
Reviews Are a Ranking Factor
Google weights review count, recency, and quality as direct ranking signals. Without a proactive reputation system, your competitors will outrank you — even if your work is better.
