No lengthy contracts,
Experienced servicePeople who open up Google or Bing to look for a handyman want to hire you. You just need to make sure you that you’re clearly the top, most reliable or most convenient choice for them.
In the same way as you probably have specialists on your team – the person you send when a certain type of issue crops up – so have we. We have people who are experts in marketing professional tradesmen of all kinds. We’ve already helped companies on three continents show off what they have to offer.
You’ll be carefully matched with one of our experts. They will:
Make no mistake though, this isn’t the sort of job where there’s a quick fix available. There are a lot of components which need to be fitted into place, ranging from proper PR outreach, making sure we’re getting reliable sources to point the way to your website, to SEO specially designed for handyman businesses. That is to say, using keywords (the phrases people type in when they’re using a search engine) which work with your target audience.
You’ll see our approach include everything from traditional methods which have been proven to work for your industry to the latest organic SEO practices. A lot of careful planning goes into making sure we only do the things which our research shows work for your area and your trade.
Are you a solo handyman covering your local town and the surrounding area? Are you a specialist working in one area of a large city?
First things first, we need to polish your brand. You might not think that a solo handyman needs a brand. On the other hand, you might have spent long nights perfecting your company’s pitch. Either way, having a solid brand is going to really set you apart from the competition. Because remember:
They might be offering the same exact services that you do. What makes you a better choice?
When it comes right down to it, that’s your brand. We’ll work with you to build up and show off what makes you clearly the best choice around. Then we promote you everywhere the big name handyman companies are found online:
When someone whips out their phone and types in a query which features their local area, town, city or GPS, that’s going to be a local search. And that’s where local SEO expertise comes in. By knowing the phrases people near you use and making sure you’re set up to be found by them, we’ll boost your business by funnelling this traffic your way.
Do you often notice small “Ad” symbols written in green next to a result you search for online? Those are spots where a company has paid to have itself featured. Choosing the right keywords and so on for paid advertising campaign is the only way to prevent it becoming a very expensive endeavour though. We’ll help you there, carefully measuring all results to get you the best value.
Public Relations covers a lot of ground. It’s not just column inches in a paper or magazine. Though, depending on where you’re based, that might well prove to be a cost-effective way to promote your business! PR is also necessary to gain the support you need online. You will need to build up backlinks to your site, which only good relations with other companies and media sources will get you. Handily, we have relationships which we’ll call on for you.
A little like the base coat you’d put down before painting a wall, you need your website to be absolutely ready before you start funnelling clients towards it. This means it not only needs to be optimised for search engines, it also needs to be well-written, persuasive and clearly laid out. In short, it needs to make it easy for your potential clients to book with you. We’ve made a great many handyman websites, designing and building them from the ground up.
The SEO for handyman companies which has proven to get the best results – especially in term of trust and long-term benefits – is organic. In this instance, organic means putting in some proper work to optimise your website and releasing high-quality content like blog posts amongst other important jobs. It’s all done to demonstrate to Google and anyone viewing your website that you are an active and energetic presence in both the real and digital world.
Facebook and other social media platforms make a great place to source new clients for all kinds of property improvement and maintenance companies. The recommendation feature, in particular, has made it easy for people to suggest you to their friends. It’s word of mouth on a whole different level! Plus, of course, there are social media ads, which also have their time and place.

Your virtual toolkit needs to be filled with quite a few key pieces of equipment to make this happen. But once you’ve started, it’s onwards and upwards. As long as, of course, you keep it up.
