Contractors (HVAC, plumbers, electricians, roofers) have unique local SEO challenges. Service area businesses need a different approach than storefront businesses.
Service Area Setup
Service area businesses can hide their address on Google and show the areas they serve instead. Set your service areas to match where you actually work — don't overreach.
City Pages
Create dedicated pages for each city you serve. "Plumber in Ocean Springs" and "Plumber in Biloxi" should be separate pages targeting those specific audiences.
Review Strategy
Ask every customer for a review after the job is done. Include the city name in your review response — "Thanks for choosing us for your Pascagoula plumbing needs!"
