Contractors & Trades
Engineered websites for licensed contractors.
We've built and ranked four contractor sites in California. We understand CSLB licensing, service-area architecture, and the buyer intent behind every "near me" search — because we've lived it.

Do you understand CSLB licensing and contractor-specific SEO?
Yes. Our portfolio is entirely contractor sites. We build license badge integrations, contractor schema (GeneralContractor, Electrician, Plumber), and service-area architectures designed for trade businesses — not repurposed templates from a dental office site.
-
Can you build a spin-off brand for a new service vertical?
Yes — that's exactly what we did with Kilowire (electrical DBA spin-off from SkillSee). A $1,200 service: new domain, new GBP, isolated SEO, 20+ service-area pages. Recoup the cost on your first lead.
-
How do service-area pages actually work for contractors?
We build one page per city with unique copy: "[Service] in [City], CA". Each page has LocalBusiness schema with the city's GeoCoordinates, city-specific content (permits, neighborhoods, projects), and is internally linked to the main service page. Google reads each as a unique, relevant local resource.
-
What about review management?
We build review acquisition into the project handoff workflow — a simple post-job email with direct GBP and Yelp links. Included in Professional and Authority builds. We also set up review response templates.
-
Can you work with my existing Yelp and Angi profiles?
Yes. We run a NAP (Name, Address, Phone) audit across all directories to ensure consistency, which directly affects local ranking. We don't manage Yelp or Angi ads — just the organic citation layer.
