Services/Ongoing Local SEO

The homeowner who can't find you online is calling someone else right now.

Every TradeSite Forge website includes local SEO foundations. Our monthly program builds on that base to get you found in more cities, more often.

Your website converts the traffic you already get. Local SEO gets more of the right homeowners to find you in the first place. Confusing the two is why most contractors pay for SEO that doesn't move the needle.

When a pipe bursts, homeowners don't browse. They search Google Maps and call one of the first three names. That's the game.

We build the foundation into every site once. The monthly program compounds on it — month after month. Shops that stay consistent pull ahead.

INCLUDED WITH EVERY WEBSITE

Local SEO Foundations — Built In, No Monthly Fee

Before we design a page, the technical groundwork is done. Every site gets this, regardless of tier.

Site speed under 2.5 seconds

Image compression, lazy loading, clean code. No page builders. Homeowners on their phone won't wait.

Mobile-first design

Tap-to-call on every page, buttons over 44px, responsive layout. 70%+ of your customers find you on mobile.

Schema markup that tells Google who you are

LocalBusiness, Service, and FAQ schema in JSON-LD. So Google knows exactly what you do and where.

On-page basics done right

Title tags, meta descriptions, H1-H3 structure, alt text — all built for your primary service and city.

Clean technical setup

XML sitemap, robots.txt, clean URLs. Submitted to Google Search Console on day one.

Google Business Profile setup

Categories, services, photos, business details — handled at launch.

Call tracking configured

GA4, call tracking numbers, form tracking. You'll know which pages drive inquiries, not just traffic.

BUILT FOR 2026 SEARCH

AEO + GEO included at no extra charge

Homeowners don't just type anymore. They ask: "Hey Google, find an AC repair near me that's open now." Or they read the AI answer at the top of Google before clicking anything.

AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) helps you show up for voice searches. We add FAQ schema, write headings the way homeowners talk ("How much does water heater repair cost?"), and structure content so assistants can read it back.

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) helps you appear in Google's AI overviews. We make your business data crystal clear to AI, build entity markup, and monitor if you're showing up where AI search is heading.

While competitors sell 2015 keyword blogs, you're getting found where search is actually going.
