Getting your Plumbing or HVAC company listed in the organic (non-paid-listings) section of major search engines comes down to two core factors:
- Having the proper on-page optimization so that Google knows what you do and the area you serve. This is so that it can put your business in the index for the correct keywords. You accomplish this by having pages for each of your services and then optimizing them for specific keyword combinations (ex. Your City + Plumber, Your City + Heating & Cooling Expert, Your City + Water Heater Repair, Your City + AC Installation, etc.).
- Creating enough authority and transparency so that Google ranks you on page one for those specific keywords. Ultimately, it comes down to having credible inbound links from other websites online to your own website. He who has the most credible inbound links wins.
