Remodeling SEO Strategies: What It Takes to Increase Leads and New Clients
Our process for remodeling SEO is similar to our approach to marketing for remodeling companies in general: TRACK > TEST > TWEAK > REPEAT. We get you the highest return on your investment by following the process below:
Performing a competitive digital analysis
- Complete a competitive digital marketing analysis to see how you stack up against your top three competitors using our proprietary data tracking software
- Perform remodeling SEO keyword research and identify the top sales-driving search terms and keywords in your market area and industry

- And more
Tracking and tweaking your SEO campaign

- Monitor keyword and search trends in your industry
- Continually optimize and pivot your campaign for better performance over time
Each month, customers in the U.S. perform almost 1.9 million online searches for remodelers and renovation companies:
Considering more than 90% of searchers click on the first page of the search results, if your remodeling company isn’t on the first page for your target keywords, you’re losing business—guaranteed.
If you’re like most remodelers, 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 (after all—think about what your competitors promise your clients!)! With a million self-proclaimed “remodeling SEO experts,” it can be difficult to distinguish fact from fiction. At Blue Corona, we provide total transparency and services backed by tangible data.
We specialize in SEO for remodeling companies, which means we know more about the remodeling industry and remodeler SEO than virtually any other digital marketing company!
- Your website code needs to be easy for search engines to find, read, index and rank. (Learn about our remodeler website development services)
- Your onsite content (copy/text) must establish your company as an authority in the home remodeling industry.
- Your offsite factors (ex. links from other authoritative sites) must be optimized to reinforce your site’s authority.
SEO for Remodeling Companies: Our Process in More Detail
Step 1: comprehensive website tracking & remodeling seo audit
You can’t maximize what you don’t (accurately) measure. Accurate tracking is the foundation of every remodeler marketing service Blue Corona provides. We market our clients’ businesses as if we owned them ourselves. To provide you with intelligent decisions about your advertising, marketing, SEO, and website, we must first evaluate your marketing the same way a great accountant would review your financials. Most SEO companies brag about rankings and traffic. Guess what? Neither of these metrics matters if you do not see increases in sales, revenue, and profit 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 remodeling websites which are currently perceived to be better optimized than your site. One of the most common questions remodelers and remodeling contractors ask us is, “how much SEO do I need?” You can’t (intelligently) answer this question without first doing a thorough analysis of the other remodeling companies in your area.
A typical remodeler SEO audit includes:
- A business intake so that our account managers see your business from the owner’s perspective
- Analytics and SEO software implementation (we use a set of tools no other remodeler SEO company has—it’s the only SEO software specially designed for the home services and remodeling industry!)
- 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).
Step 2: foundational, technical seo improvements to your remodeling website
Armed with the data derived from the SEO audit, 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 and assessment process, you 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 site speed (load speed is a known ranking factor), enhancing your local SEO by creating more geographically relevant content, and even recoding your website onto a content management system (CMS).
Step 3: content creation and content marketing for remodelers
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.
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 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 remodelers hate creating website copy! That’s okay—Blue Corona has professional U.S.-based copywriters who specialize in creating unique, original, relevant and authoritative content specifically for the remodeling 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 remodeler that’s local to the area. When consumers make geographically related searches like “remodeler near me” or “home renovation 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!
