Website marketing for tradespeople - Handyman seo

Get more work by making it easy for customers to find your website and book your services

Search engine optimisation for trades and home renovators

You’re here because you want more work for your trade business.

You need customers to find your website when they’re online looking for help. They search an issue you can solve, they land on your website, they get in touch to book your services.

Sounds simple enough, doesn’t it?

If only it was that easy.

Luckily, we know a great way to make it happen, by marketing your website through something called search engine optimisation (SEO) and content.

We’ve grown trade businesses before

Let’s grow your trade business too with SEO and content

    Why you need SEO and content as a tradesman/woman

    SEO stands for search engine optimisation, which is a marketing technique to get your website ranking high on search engines like Google.

    When a customer types in a service they need, or a problem they need to solve, or a question they have, you want your website to show up for them.

    That’s what SEO can do for you.

    Then they go to your website and hopefully get in touch with you.

    Content is the wording that goes onto your website. It’s that wording that helps with your SEO.

    Without good quality copy, you will not rank and you will not convince people to get in touch with you.

    SEO and content is the most affordable way to grow your website’s traffic for the long term. SEO has proven to offer a better return on investment than all other online advertising.

    By getting your tradesman website ranking on page 1, you will have a much higher chance of generating real leads through your website.

    We’ve outlined the full SEO process here if you want to know more.

    See the impact our SEO has had on businesses!

    If you’re struggling to get enquiries and leads online, it’s because you have zero online presence

    Without an online presence you’re missing out on your customers who are looking to complete renovation jobs on their homes.

    To get enquiries online you need to be easily discoverable on Google search. After all, when people need support with their project, they turn to Google when they need a solution.

    SEO content allows us to show that you are the solution the home owner needs.

    Having a website advertising your services isn’t enough anymore

    It’s essential that you have a website to promote your trade expertise, but without website marketing your website will go under the radar.

    We achieve page 1 rankings through technical on-site optimisation, content writing, copywriting and ongoing strategy.

    Our bespoke SEO strategies include:

    • Keyword Research

    • Content Writing

    • Page Optimisation

    • Ongoing Strategy

    SEO is perfect for marketing any trade business

    Your services are in demand. We know this because there are such high search volumes whenever you look at Google’s monthly searches for various trade services.

    Rank for your services and what your customers need help with (their issue that you can solve)

    Your customers are typically homeowners, renters/tenants, landlords and business owners.

    You’re a skilled professional who can be relied on to solve an issue. And issue related searches are always highly searched, every single day.

    That means that if you appear for the service you offer in your local area, you will earn yourself a lot of website visits and customer enquiries.

    There are a couple types of SEO we recommend doing as a tradesman

    Local SEO

    You can rank locally, but you’ll of course be able to cover a radius, which opens more SEO opportunity for you.

    And once you’re showing top locally and within your service area radius, it’ll be hard to ignore your business’s website.

    You will want to show up when people search “- your trade – – your locations -“, which will look like something like this: “plumber london”, or “builders near me”.

    You may also want to rank for services you offer, like “boiler service london” or “house extension experts”.

    Longtail SEO as part of a content strategy – Creating quality content to rank for problem related or question search queries

    Any SEO company worth their salt will focus on creating high quality content.

    In your line of business, there is a huge amount of content you can create, and content that your customers need.

    We call the problem-led or question related keywords ‘longtail keywords’. Basically, it’s longer searches compared to the local SEO I mentioned above.

    So your longtail keywords as a trade will be:

    • Best small kitchen ideas
    • Popular loft conversion ideas
    • How much does a boiler service cost
    • How long does it take to install new windows
    • How much money can new triple glazing save

    If that’s your ambition, brilliant, you’ll need SEO.

    SEO is more than ranking though

    Be warned that SEO isn’t an instant thing and it’s not just about rankings.

    Ranking at the top of the searches requires a few things:

    • Quality website – fast loading and super easy to use
    • Great content – to keep people interested and to make them want to work with you
    • Targeting relevant keywords – by creating relevant website content and doing the technical SEO bits

    Have all of that and you have a great chance of ranking.

    But it’s not instant results. SEO truly is an investment and requires regular work for months and years. SEO is for business owners who understand the value of SEO and the long term gain it will give to you and your business.

    Currently paying for your leads?

    If you’re paying for your leads with the likes of Trustatrader, Rated People, or Bark, you’re burning your cash on low quality leads.

    In most cases, these pay per lead websites for trades do it all wrong. They send you poor quality leads for you to bid your interest, just for the customer to hire someone else, to ask for a ridiculous price from you, or not even answer you.

    The worst part, you pay for that shitty lead.

    With SEO, you’re in control of the leads that come your way. They’re exclusive to you as the customer has found you organically by searching online and then landing on your website.

    Pay per lead models can work in getting you some more work, but they’re not scalable. Lead generator businesses for trades like Trustatrader and Bark have other customers to serve. So you’ll only see a small portion of the leads that come through their system.

    With SEO for your website, there’s no limit on the amount of leads you will have coming your way.

    The price of your lead will be cheaper through your website – SEO content.

    I’ve seen my site go from obscurity to ranking well

    I’ve always been a bit dubious of SEO companies but I was referred to him by someone I know well and trust. I also saw the results a friend of mine had had by using his services. I’m so glad I chose to work with Tom. He’s explained everything really well and given me lots of options for now and also for moving forward. Most importantly I’ve seen my site go from obscurity to ranking well in a matter of months.
