Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about plumber SEO and GEO
Why doesn't standard SEO work for plumbers?
Standard SEO agencies treat plumbing like any other business, but plumbers face unique challenges: emergency searches happen at 2 AM, customers need immediate response times, and trust signals (licenses, insurance, reviews) matter more than fancy websites. Plumber SEO requires understanding service areas, emergency keywords, and the specific customer journey from panic search to booked job. We built this agency after running an HVAC/Plumbing business for 20+ years, so we know exactly which keywords drive revenue vs which waste your budget.
What is the most important keyword for a plumber?
It's not "plumber near me." The highest-converting keywords are specific emergency terms like "slab leak detection," "water heater leaking from bottom," and "sewer backing up into bathtub." These searchers are in crisis mode and will book immediately. Big-ticket install keywords like "tankless water heater installation cost" and "whole house repiping" drive the highest revenue per job. We focus on these high-intent, high-margin keywords instead of generic terms that attract tire-kickers.
How fast can I get to Page 1?
For local "plumber [city]" searches with a well-optimized Google Business Profile, you can see Page 1 rankings in 45-90 days. For competitive service-specific keywords like "emergency plumber" or "water heater repair," expect 3-6 months of consistent work. The timeline depends on your current domain authority, review count, and how many competitors are actively investing in SEO. Our 45-Day Growth Sprint is designed to deliver quick wins (GBP optimization, citation building) while building the foundation for long-term rankings.
What's the difference between SEO and GEO for plumbers?
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) gets you ranked in Google search results. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) gets you recommended by AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. When someone asks ChatGPT "Who is the best plumber for slab leaks in Fresno?", GEO ensures your business is mentioned in the answer. This matters because 40% of searches are shifting to AI tools, especially for high-trust decisions like choosing a contractor. We optimize for both traditional Google and AI search engines.
Do I need to sign a long-term contract?
No. We offer month-to-month services because we believe in earning your business every month. Most agencies lock you into 12-month contracts because they know their results are mediocre. We're confident you'll see measurable improvements (ranking increases, more calls, booked jobs) within the first 90 days. Our average client stays with us for 2+ years not because they have to, but because the ROI is undeniable. If we're not driving revenue, you can cancel anytime.
