SEO For Tradesmen - Frequently Asked Questions

How long does SEO take to work?

Most of our clients see measurable movement within 3–6 months, with strong results building month by month. SEO is a compounding investment, the longer you are in the game, the better the returns.

Yes, but SEO works best as part of a full digital system. Most clients pair it with Google Ads early on, then rely more on SEO as it matures.

Yes, when done properly.
Good SEO doesn’t just bring more traffic, it brings the right kind of traffic.

When your SEO is targeting:

  • The right search terms (e.g. “switchboard upgrade” not just “electrician”)

  • The right suburbs or regions

  • The right type of customer pain points

…you filter out time-wasters and bring in higher value, ready to book type clients. It’s about quality, not just quantity.

You will know it’s working when:

  • Your phone rings with better leads

  • You start seeing your business name ranking on Google Maps and search

  • Website traffic increases for specific keywords

  • You’re closing more jobs without chasing

Absolutely! That is exactly what many tradies want.
Platforms like Builderscrack or NoCowboys take a cut, put you in price wars, and don’t build your brand.

With SEO:

  • You own your website and traffic

  • You build authority in your area

  • You attract leads directly to your inbox or phone — no middleman

It’s about building an online system that works for your business, not someone else’s.

Good question. Here’s what to look for:

  • Do they specialise in working with tradies?
  • Can they explain their strategy in plain English?
  • Do they offer transparent reporting and tracking?
  • Do they focus on long-term wins, not just traffic spikes?
  • Can they show proof of ROI or case studies?

Yes, but only when your SEO targets the kind of jobs you actually want.

We align your content, keywords, and website structure to attract:

  • Higher-ticket work

  • Commercial or specialist jobs

  • Customers ready to move, not just window-shop

SEO is a tool. We make sure it’s working to attract your best-fit clients.

It starts with consistent lead flow and clear marketing systems.
Once you’re no longer relying on referrals or word of mouth, you can:

  • Plan staffing confidently

  • Price better (not desperate for any job)

  • Step away from the tools and into the business

Yes, when you’re booked out from strong inbound leads, your role can shift.
You can:

  • Delegate jobs to your team

  • Focus on quoting and systems

  • Work on the business, not in it

SEO is part of the machine that creates freedom. It’s not instant, but over 6–12 months it can change your position in the business.

This is exactly where SEO + Google Ads + a proper website come in.
Instead of waiting for referrals or one-off spikes, we help you:

  • Show up when people search in your area

  • Capture leads through your website

  • Run targeted Google Ads to fill gaps

  • Build long-term local visibility through Maps SEO

You stop guessing. The work comes in and you keep your team moving.

We hear this often. That’s why we:

  • Only work with one trade per region on the growth package.

  • Show real case studies with real results

  • Customise your strategy 

  • Provide transparent, human reporting (no tech speak)

  • Focus on leads and ROI — not just “ranking”

You will always know what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and what results it’s producing.

Not immediately, but over time, yes. SEO is like fitness, you build strength gradually, and it needs maintenance.

If you stop:

  • Rankings may hold for a while

  • Competitors who keep investing will eventually overtake

  • Lead flow might slow down over 3–6 months

But the right SEO builds lasting assets (content, links, trust).
