seo for landscaping companies -- 93% of online experiences start with search

Each month, customers in the U.S. perform almost 1.5 million online searches for landscapers and landscaping companies.

Considering more than 90% of searchers click on the first page of the search results, if your landscaping company doesn’t pop up on the first page for your target landscaping keywords, you’re losing business—guaranteed.

keywords for landscaping companies

If you’re like most landscaping companies, you probably get 20 emails a day promising to rank your website #1 on Google. Like most things in life, if it sounds too good to be true, it typically is! With a million self-proclaimed “SEO experts,” it can be difficult to distinguish fact from fiction. At Blue Corona, we provide total transparency and SEO services backed by actual data.

Three things are required if you want your website to rank above other landscaping companies in the organic search results:

  1. Your website needs to be fast, mobile-friendly, and secure; and your website code needs to be easy for search engines to find, read, index, and rank.
  2. Your onsite content (copy/text) must establish your company as an authority in the landscaping industry.
  3. Your offsite factors (ex. links from other authoritative sites) must be optimized to reinforce your site’s authority.

Blue Corona offers landscaping companies a turnkey SEO service to measurably improve the three metrics above. The end result, for many of our landscaping clients, is an exponential increase in website traffic, leads, and sales!

Our Landscaping SEO Process In More Detail

Step 1: Comprehensive Landscaping Website Tracking & SEO Audit

You can’t maximize what you don’t (accurately) measure. Accurate tracking is the foundation of every service Blue Corona provides. We market our landscaping clients’ businesses as if we owned them ourselves. To provide you with intelligent decisions about your advertising, marketing, SEO, and website, we must first look at your marketing the same way a CPA would look at your financials.

Most SEO companies brag about rankings and traffic. Guess what? Neither of these metrics matters if you’re not seeing increases in profit, revenue and booked jobs from organic searches (for terms other than your company name!).

SEO is a zero-sum game, which means that for your website to move higher up in the organic search results, you must leapfrog websites which are currently perceived to be better optimized than your site. One of the most common questions landscapers and business owners ask us is, “how much SEO do I really need?” You can’t (intelligently) answer this question without first doing a thorough analysis of the other landscaping companies in your area.

A typical SEO audit includes:

  • A business intake so that our account managers see your business from an owner’s perspective
  • Analytics and SEO software implementation (we use a set of tools no other SEO company has)
  • Keyword research and identification
  • Competitor analysis
  • Analysis and evaluation of your website code, structure, and content
  • Analysis and evaluation of your company’s presence online—linkscape, social media, and more

The output of our SEO audit process is an overview report and SEO strategy, which our team will present to you (allowing time for extensive Q&A).

  • Enter your website to see if you could benefit from SEO.

  • Try it - it's FREE!

Step 2: Foundational SEO Improvements to Your Landscaping Website

Armed with the data derived from the SEO audit process, the second step in the SEO process is to make any foundational improvements required to facilitate your ongoing SEO success. For example, to rank well on Google, you need well-optimized onsite content.

However, if your website is not coded and structured correctly, the search engines will never see the great content you create. If code and site structure issues are identified during the SEO audit process, they must be fixed before any content optimizations occur.

Although every situation is unique, typical foundational improvements include things like:

  • Revising your website’s title and meta tags
  • Renaming various web pages
  • Giving your website files a more logical structure,
  • Improving your website speed (load speed is a known ranking factor)
  • Enhancing your local SEO by creating more geographically relevant content
  • Recoding your website onto a content management system (CMS)
  • Making your website mobile-friendly (separate web project)

Step 3: Landscaping Content Creation and Content Marketing

With the right foundation in place, and armed right keywords, the next step in the SEO process is to update the content on your website and, when necessary, create new website pages. Contrary to what you might think, Google doesn’t rank websites—it ranks web PAGES. Each page of content on your site allows you to rank for a specific set of relevant keywords.

your landscaping marketing strategy should include seo and blogging—it increases chances of ranking by 434%

It might be helpful to think of your website as if it were a fishing boat; each page of content is like a baited line thrown into the Internet sea of fish. More lines in the water (pages on your website) equals more fish (visits, leads, and sales!)! The content of your website must target your top keywords, but it also must establish your company as THE authority for what you do in markets you do it.

Most landscape contractors either hate creating website copy or simply don’t have time for it. That’s okay—Blue Corona has professional copywriters (in-house, US-based employees that work directly for Blue Corona) that specialize in creating unique, original, relevant, and authoritative content specifically for the landscaping industry.

Step 4: Optimization of Offsite Factors and Local SEO

The final step in the SEO process is to optimize your overall footprint on the web, starting with your Google My Business page.

Most homeowners and property managers want a landscaper that’s local to the area. When consumers make geographically related searches like “landscaper near me” or “landscaping company in [city, state],” Google and other search engines show what’s called the local pack (otherwise known as map listings):

To get in the local pack, you need a flawless Google My Business page. With our local SEO services, we’ll do it for you and make sure it’s continually up to date with the latest information.

Other Offsite Factors

A part of building authority offsite includes generating links back to your website. Think of links from other authoritative websites (manufacturer’s pages, local chambers of commerce or the BBB) as votes of authority or digital recommendations. More links from high-authority sites equal more search engine visibility; however, you must recognize that not all links are created equal!

Buying links with the intent to manipulate Google’s ranking algorithms is forbidden and doing so can get your website banned from the search rankings. The right way to attract links to your website is to earn them by creating unique and remarkable content—content that is truly valuable to your prospective customers!

Top Company SEO FAQs

What is SEO?

SEO is the process of editing and creating website content and code that ranks well on search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo. First, your website must be coded so search engines can find and crawl it. Your website also needs to be fast, secure, and mobile friendly. Second, you need web page after web page of unique, remarkable, and optimized content. Third, you must gain citations, links, and references from other relevant and authoritative websites.

What’s included in SEO services?

In all SEO packages, we include:

    1. A digital competitive analysis
    2. Website content and code optimization
    3. New website content and creatives
    4. Local citation optimization (local SEO)
    5. Measurement and analytics reporting
    6. Continual tracking and tweaking of your campaign

Should I hire an SEO company?

An SEO company handles the day-to-day tasks of monitoring your online presence so you can focus on other aspects of your business. If you don’t have the time or resources to comb through pages upon pages of analytical data, rankings, and traffic patterns and then have the means to optimize accordingly, you need an SEO company.

How much do SEO services cost?

Blue Corona’s SEO process starts with a website audit – an ongoing SEO campaign may or may not follow (ongoing SEO occurs approximately 85% of the time). Website audits are customized for individual businesses, so the prices vary, but the typical range is $2,500 – $3,500 (audits for larger “enterprise” websites can be considerably more). Ongoing SEO ranges from consulting to “do it for me” SEO services where Blue Corona’s team acts like your own in-house SEO department (for a fraction of the cost of having your own SEO team). Ongoing SEO ranges from $2,000 per month on the low end to $10,000 (or more) per month on the high end. What should really matter is your return on marketing investment (ROMI). Sure, $5,000 per month may sound like a big investment for a local business, but if your ROMI turns into $50,000 per month, it’s worth the investment. A word of caution: you get what you pay for. If you sign up with a cheap SEO company that offers low monthly payments and includes a “free” website, you may be leasing a space on their proprietary platform, meaning you lose your website and all your work once you leave. Avoid outsourced or second-language SEO work.

How long does SEO take?

If you’ve got a good SEO partner, you can generally see results between 3-6 months, but certain industries with highly competitive keywords can take up to a year to see traction. Don’t give up, though—once you get going, your results will snowball.

How does Blue Corona track SEO success?

If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it. You can’t win the game if you don’t know the score. Despite a million quotes which suggest that you can’t maximize your business success unless you track your results, most business owners and marketers are still not accurately tracking their advertising, marketing, website, or SEO. Most online marketing companies treat tracking and reporting as an afterthought—the last step. At Blue Corona, it’s the first step in every SEO engagement.

Is Blue Corona a certified Google Partner?

Yes.
