Richmond SEO for the trade searches that bring calls.

The scope decides it: how many services need their own pages, how many towns you cover, and what one job is worth. A single electrician chasing repair calls needs less than a remodeler selling additions across Madison County. A co-founder scopes it against your lead value and puts the number in the proposal.

Technical fixes usually move inside the first month. The local and long-tail rankings that bring calls tend to follow over 60 to 90 days, and revenue builds from about month four. The monthly report counts calls and leads from day one, so the trend is visible before the rankings settle.

You do. Your domain, hosting account, WordPress install and the content are yours, and the Google Business Profile stays in your business name. The pages keep working and the profile keeps its history if you move the work elsewhere.

Sometimes. If the pages are thin or the site is slow, the fix is new pages and faster hosting, and a rebuild is sometimes the cheaper route. We look at the site before quoting the retainer, and the proposal says whether the site needs work first.

AI results reward a page that answers the question in its first sentence and backs it up with clear facts. We write that way and add schema to help machines read the page. The same business details run across the site and the listings. Nobody can promise an AI mention, so the monthly report keeps to calls and leads.
