Local SEO for Trades. Booked across the corridor.

Month to month. 30 days’ written notice, no cancellation fee, no auto-renewal clause. The whole agreement is one page and it is published on this site, so you can read it before you call me. Leave, and the town pages, the profile, the reviews and the accounts stay in your name.

Every town you actually take work in, once it passes the three tests above. For a Prince George shop that usually means Quesnel, Vanderhoof, Mackenzie, Burns Lake and Fort St. James. On PLUS and PRO those pages are in the monthly fee. On CORE, or with a Launch on its own, a town page is an add-on at $250 each. Based somewhere else in Canada? Same price, your towns.

I won’t promise it. Nobody honest can, because Google decides the order. What I can tell you is my own record: 100% of client sites I’ve completed rank on page one for at least one tracked search. That’s a record, not a promise. What I do promise is the work every month and a report that shows the calls it produced, town by town. If the calls aren’t there, you’ll see it on the page, and you can leave with 30 days’ notice.

The groundwork is done in the first month and listed in the first report. Smaller towns, where fewer shops are trying, tend to show up first; your home town usually takes longer. Epic Pavement reached page one for its core services in two months of work, and I won’t promise that pace to anyone. If you need calls this month, that’s what PRO is for.

Only if your trade is eligible. Google opens Local Services Ads to some trades in Canada and not others, so I run Google’s eligibility check for your trade and your town before I promise anything. If you’re eligible, the account is opened in your name, I manage it, and the budget goes from your card to Google. I never touch it and never mark it up. If you’re not eligible, PLUS is still the same price and everything else in it still applies.

When a job is done, the customer gets a request to leave a Google review, sent automatically. Asking no longer depends on you remembering in the driveway with your hands full. Every review that comes in gets a reply from me, the five-star ones and the hard ones. 91% of customers read reviews before picking a contractor, and Google is the top place they read them, at 56% (ACHR News, 2024).

I do. They come from your jobs, your photos and the questions customers ask on the recorded calls: a write-up of a job you finished in Quesnel, a plain answer to what customers want to know before they book. Want more than two in a month? An extra piece or project write-up is $150.

Not always. If your site is sound and in your name, I build the town pages on it. If it sits on a page builder or a vendor’s platform you can’t take with you, I’ll tell you straight, and the HiVis Launch may be the better first step: a native WordPress site of 5 to 8 pages, in your name, $3,900, one time.

Not in your town. One client per trade per town: I will not take your competitor in your town. Retainers are capped at 15 clients, so the person who answers your call is the person doing the work. All six commitments are on the HiVis standard.
