The Problem

Right now, the jobs are going to the tradie above you

When someone needs a plumber or sparky, they search, tap the first few results, and call. If you're not on the Map and the front page, those calls go elsewhere — every single day.

Not on the Map

If your Google Business Profile isn't in the Map Pack, most local customers never see you. The first three listings take the calls.

No suburb coverage

Work across multiple suburbs but only have one page? You're invisible for the suburb-plus-service searches that bring in jobs.

No clear numbers

No tracking on calls, quote requests or directions means you can't tell what's working — so the money keeps leaking.

What's Included

What we actually do

No marketing fluff. This is the real work that produces the numbers.

GA4 + Search Console audit

We connect to your Google Analytics and Search Console to see exactly what's ranking, what's slipping, which suburbs are converting, and where you're losing visitors.

DataForSEO keyword research

We pull real search volumes and CPC data for the queries your customers actually run — not guesses, not generic keyword lists.

Competitor analysis

Side-by-side audit of the other tradies ranking above you. What pages they have, what schema they use, what they're doing better — and where the gaps are.

PageSpeed + technical metrics

Core Web Vitals, mobile performance, indexing health. Slow sites don't rank; we find what's slowing yours down and fix it.

Copy + content improvements

Where your wording is weak, generic, or missing, we rewrite it — for customers and for Google.

Meta data + schema markup

Title tags, descriptions, structured data — kept current, validated via Rich Results Test, and fixed where broken.

H1, H2, H3 hierarchy

One clear H1 per page, logical sub-headings. Boring-sounding work, but one of the strongest organic-search levers we have.

New suburb pages

Missing a page for a major service area you actually want jobs in? Where content is thin, we build it.

Blog posts when needed

When visibility needs a boost, targeted at real buyer-intent queries — not SEO filler.

Microsoft Clarity heatmaps

Installed so we see exactly where visitors drop off on your site, then fix the content or layout that's losing them.

Local directory listings

Yellow Pages, hipages, True Local. Tedious, repetitive work — so it lives in the Pro tier.

How It Works

How we rank a trade business

A proven process to get a plumber, electrician, builder or other trade business ranking in Google Search and the Local Map Pack for the suburbs they service.

01

Fix Google Business Profile

Verify ownership, complete every field, enable messaging and bookings, fix duplicate or suspended listings, and connect it to the site. Most tradie GBPs are 40–60% complete and missing the fields that drive Map Pack ranking.

02

Build suburb landing pages

Map the service area, find 5–10 suburbs with the strongest demand, and build a dedicated page for each — original content, area-specific testimonials, and local schema.

03

Trade-specific schema

LocalBusiness with the correct trade subtype (Plumber, Electrician, RoofingContractor, HVACBusiness), Service entries with priceRange, AggregateRating wired to Google reviews, and breadcrumbs. Validated in Rich Results Test.

04

Build review velocity

Automated SMS or email after every completed job with a direct review link. Aim for 5–10 new reviews a month. Review velocity is one of the strongest Map Pack signals and the highest-converting trust factor for tradies.

05

Measure and iterate monthly

Track call clicks from Google Business Profile, direction requests, phone-number clicks, and quote-form submissions. Review monthly, see which suburbs and services convert, and reallocate effort.

How long until my trade business is ranking on Google?

Map Pack visibility typically lifts within 4-8 weeks once Google Business Profile is sorted and suburb pages are live. Broader 'plumber Brisbane' rankings take 3-6 months. Most clients see their first organic lead inside the first 60 days.

SEO or Google Ads — which one should I run?

Google Ads gets you to the top immediately but you pay for every click. SEO takes 3-6 months but leads keep coming after the work compounds. Most tradies do best with both — Ads for emergencies, SEO for planned jobs. See AI Google Ads Management for the paid side.

Can you guarantee #1 on Google?

No — and be wary of anyone who does. What we guarantee is a proven process, transparent monthly reporting, and the metrics that matter: phone calls, quote requests, calls from Google Business Profile.

What if I work across multiple suburbs?

We build dedicated suburb landing pages for each major service area. Most plumbers and electricians end up with 8-15 suburb pages over 6 months. The Growth and Pro tiers cover this.

How much does it cost?

$199/month for Essentials (basic SEO overview only), $299/month for single-suburb Foundation, $499/month for multi-suburb Growth, $599/month for Pro (adds directory listings, 1 Google Ads landing page per month, and quarterly competitive review). AI Search Optimisation is included from Foundation up. Every tier includes the $99 Hosting & Care package (hosting, SSL, backups, security monitoring). Audits are free. Month-to-month, no lock-in.

Already have a website — do you rebuild or work with it?

Either. If your site is solid we optimise it. If it's slow or built on something that limits SEO, we can rebuild as part of the engagement. See Web Design.
