Get a Free SEO Audit

Contractor SEO is how you stop paying Google Ads every month and start getting free leads from organic search. When someone types "plumber near me" or "HVAC repair [city]" into Google, the contractor who ranks on page one gets the call — and the contractor on page two gets nothing. We build that ranking foundation right into our $1,499 one-time website package: Google Business Profile setup, schema markup, on-page SEO, 10 city/area landing pages, Google Maps integration, blog setup, and three months of post-launch support. No monthly retainer. No SEO contract on the side. One price, you own the site, and the SEO is wired in from day one.

Why Contractors Choose Our SEO Approach

Local-First, Not Generic SEO

We don't chase "plumbing services" as a keyword — we rank you for "emergency plumber [your city]" and every neighborhood within your service area. That's where real leads come from, and that's what 10 dedicated city/area pages target.

Google Business Profile Optimization

Your GBP is the #1 source of local leads. We rewrite it, set up service areas correctly, integrate Google Maps and Google Reviews auto-sync into your site, and hand you a system to systematically grow Map Pack rankings.

One-Time Price — No Retainer

SEO is built into the $1,499 package, not billed separately every month. You own the site, you own the SEO foundation, and you keep ranking long after the initial work is done. No agency holding your rankings hostage.

Built to Rank in ~90 Days

The package is engineered for early rankings: PageSpeed 90+, mobile-first design, clean schema markup, GBP fully set up, and city pages indexed before you launch. Most clients see first-page movement within 90 days of launch.

What's Included for SEO in the $1,499 Package

  • On-Page SEO Foundations — Title tags, meta descriptions, H1/H2 structure, internal linking, image alt text, and ContractorBusiness schema markup wired into every page from day one.
  • Local Keyword Mapping — High-intent local keywords mapped to pages on your site. "Plumber [city]", "[city] drain cleaning", "emergency plumber near me" — the searches that send paying customers — each routed to a page built to rank for it.
  • Google Business Profile Optimization — Complete GBP setup or rewrite: category selection, service area boundaries, photos, Q&A, and integration with your site's Google Maps + Google Reviews widgets.
  • 10 City/Area Landing Pages — Dedicated landing pages for the cities and neighborhoods you actually work in. Real content, not thin doorway pages — built so Google indexes and ranks them for "[trade] [city]" searches.
  • Schema Markup — LocalBusiness, ContractorBusiness, Service, FAQPage, and BreadcrumbList structured data. Helps Google understand exactly what you do, where you do it, and what questions you answer.
  • Blog Setup — Blog included and configured. Helps Google find you for more searches over time as you publish answers to the questions your customers actually type.
  • PageSpeed 90+ Optimization — Site loads in ~2 seconds. Google ranks fast sites higher, and slow sites lose customers before they read a word.
  • Google Reviews Auto-Sync — Your Google reviews appear on the site automatically. More fresh 5-star reviews = higher Map Pack rankings.
  • Three Months of Post-Launch Support — Anything needs adjusting after launch — copy tweaks, new city page, schema fix — just ask. We stay with you while early rankings settle in.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does contractor SEO take to work?
First ranking improvements typically appear in 60–90 days. Meaningful lead flow from SEO usually starts at 4–6 months. Compound growth kicks in at month 6 and beyond as your authority builds and more pages index. SEO is a long game — but the leads it generates are cheaper and convert better than paid traffic.
What's the difference between SEO for contractors and SEO for construction companies?
Contractor SEO emphasizes consumer-facing keywords like "plumber near me" and "HVAC repair [city]". Construction SEO emphasizes B2B terms like "commercial contractor [city]" and "tenant improvement contractor". Different keyword strategies, different content plans, different link sources. We specialize in both — see our General Contractor SEO page for the B2B angle.
Do you guarantee page 1 rankings?
No SEO agency can guarantee specific rankings — Google's algorithm changes constantly. What we guarantee: a site engineered to rank (clean schema, fast load, mobile-first, GBP set up properly, 10 city/area pages targeting your local searches), plus three months of post-launch support to adjust strategy as we see what's working.
Can SEO replace Google Ads entirely?
Eventually, yes. Most of our clients scale back Google Ads 50–70% within 12 months of starting SEO. Organic leads convert at a higher rate and cost significantly less long-term — because once you own a ranking, you stop paying per click. We recommend running both in parallel during the first 6 months, then dialing back Ads as organic kicks in.
How much does contractor SEO cost?
Our SEO setup is built into the $1,499 one-time website package — no monthly retainer, no separate SEO contract. That covers the full SEO foundation: GBP optimization, schema markup, on-page SEO, 10 city/area landing pages, Google Maps integration, blog setup, and three months of post-launch support so we can adjust as rankings start moving.
Do I also need a new website for SEO to work?
Yes — a slow or outdated site puts a hard ceiling on rankings, no matter how much SEO work you do. That's why we bundle the website and the SEO foundation into one $1,499 package: the site is engineered from day one to rank, with PageSpeed 90+, mobile-first design, clean structured data, and the local pages Google needs to see.
