SEO for Home Service Companies

The home services industry is diverse. But regardless of whether you own or operate a carpet cleaning, daycare, dry cleaning, house cleaning, pest control, lawn care, landscaping, pet sitting, plumbing, renovation, or flooring business, your mission is the same: to attract clients, provide value, and generate profits – in that order.

If you don’t have clients, it doesn’t matter how good you are at what you do – you won’t be able to use your skillset or generate revenue. We like to make things seem more complicated than they are, but it’s really as simple as that.

Introduction

The home services industry is no longer a quiet corner of the marketplace where local businesses rest on their laurels and use past reputation to enjoy sustained success.

The industry is exploding, and national companies and online businesses are carving out massive footholds in their respective niches.

Backed by deep pockets, advanced advertising strategies, and cutthroat mentalities, these companies are escalating competition in once stable markets and singlehandedly intensifying the pressure.

If you want your home services business to survive and thrive, you need a cost-effective marketing strategy that produces sustainable results.

5 Tips for Effective Link Building

Link building is the process of acquiring links to your website from other websites and blogs. Google views backlinks as signs of trust and authority; web pages with a high quantity of high-quality backlinks will see a noticeable boost in the search results.

Link building is both a technical endeavor and an art form. It requires some practical know-how and finesse.

Here are a few tips specifically for home services:

1. Generate a Rich Library of Content

There are couple of different types of link building. There’s link attraction and then there’s manual link building.

Link attraction involves developing content that will organically generate shares and backlinks over time. In other words, you create good content and wait for people to notice. So, you start with good content.

Content creation should be a regular part of your digital strategy. Quality is far more important than quantity, but it’s best if you have both. Developing one or two long-form pieces of content each week will give you a library of more than 100 quality pieces of linkable content after just a year.
