Penguin Air, Plumbing & Electrical

Penguin Air, Plumbing & Electrical
Problem

A prominent Nexstar member servicing the Phoenix Valley, Penguin Air, Plumbing & Electrical first came to Blue Corona in 2019 in search of a new digital marketing partner. A once well-established brand in the Valley community, Penguin was quickly losing rankings, visibility, and customers to competitors that outranked and outperformed them on search engines. Historically, Penguin grew top-line revenue nearly 40% each year until 2019. Owners Wade and Will were ready to make the leap from the “biggest small guy” in the Valley to big-time players.

Solutions

A digital competitive analysis of Penguin’s online presence revealed multiple areas of opportunity across their website, organic search presence (SEO) and paid media (PPC, specifically).

American Vintage Home

American Vintage Home
Problem

American Vintage Home, an award-winning residential HVAC and plumbing company servicing Chicagoland’s North Shore area, knew they were up against tough competition online.

Solutions

The company turned to Blue Corona to improve the performance of its digital marketing campaigns, with an emphasis on search engine optimization (SEO). After an in-depth client intake and onboarding process, Blue Corona’s team got to work installing a custom tracking and analytics setup, optimizing existing web pages, publishing new, SEO-optimized content, and claiming and optimizing local director listings on behalf of American Vintage Home.

About Our SEO Services for Solar Companies

If you’re like most solar 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 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 services backed by tangible data. Three things are required if you want your website to rank above all the other solar remodeling companies: 1. 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 roofing remodeling industry.
3. Your offsite factors (ex. links from other authoritative sites) must be optimized to reinforce your site’s authority. Blue Corona offers solar companies a turn-key SEO service to measurably improve the (3) metrics above. The end result, for many of our solar clients, is an exponential increase in website traffic, leads and sales!

The SEO Process in More Detail

You can’t maximize what you don’t (accurately) measure. Accurate tracking is the foundation of every service Blue Corona provides. We market our clients’ businesses as if we owned them ourselves. In order 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 matter 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 in order 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 solar companies ask us is, “how much SEO do I need?” You can (intelligently) answer this question without first doing a thorough analysis of the other solar companies in your area.

Related to some of the points above – ranking for “stone solar companies” is worthless if all the visits you’re receiving are from outside your service area! After we’ve installed accurate tracking on your website, gathered baseline data and analyzed your competitors, the next step in the SEO process is keyword research. We have SEO experts that specialize in solar industry. We select the right keywords, given your business and geographic location, using a combination of search frequency and conversion data (which keywords actually generate leads and booked jobs).

Armed with accurate tracking data and the right keywords, the next step in the SEO process is to update the content on your website and, when necessary, create new website pages. 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 be targeted to your top keywords, but it also must establish your company as THE authority for what you do in markets you do it.

Most solar companies hate creating website copy! 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 solar companies. 

The final step in the SEO process is to optimize your overall footprint on the web. 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 equals more search engine visbility; 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

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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
Yes.
