01
What is SEO for landscaping companies?
+
SEO means getting your business to show up when people search. For a landscaper, that's three places: Google Maps when someone types landscaper near me, the normal list of Google results when a homeowner types backyard landscaping and their town, and the answers ChatGPT and Google's AI give when someone asks who to hire.
02
We're booked every spring from referrals. Why do we need SEO?
+
Because a referral still ends in a search. The neighbour who was given your name looks you up before they call, and if what they find is a thin site with no project photos, they call whoever looks better. Rankings also let you choose the work: more of the patios and full yards you want, fewer small jobs you only take to fill the week.
03
How long does SEO take for a landscaping company?
+
If you don't see visible improvement in your key metrics within the first 20 days, we refund $200 on top of returning your payment for that period. If your qualifying keywords aren't on the first page of Google within 60 days, we keep working for free until they are. We confirm which keywords qualify on the strategy call. Broad searches in big cities take longer to win than one service in one town.
04
How much does SEO cost for a landscaping company?
+
Usually $1,497 to $5,000 a month for Google Maps, the normal Google results, or both. Work across several websites usually starts at $5,000 a month. No long-term contracts. Getting named in AI answers is included in every plan.
05
When should a landscaper start SEO?
+
Before you need the calls. Homeowners plan big projects while the yard is still asleep and book them as the weather turns, so a company that ranks before the busy season gets first pick of the year's work. Starting in the off-season also means your crews aren't stretched while we set things up.
06
We do design-build and lawn care. Do they need separate pages?
+
Yes. A homeowner planning a new patio and a property manager hiring weekly maintenance type different searches and want different answers. The homeowner wants your past projects, your process and a rough idea of cost. The property manager wants to know you're insured, how often you come and what's included. Each gets a page written for them.
07
We work out of a yard, not a showroom. Can we still show up on Google Maps?
+
Often, yes. Google has its own rules for businesses that go to the customer instead of having customers come in. We check your setup against Google's current rules before we touch your listing, so it's set up in a way that lasts.
08
Should we just pay for ads or lead sites instead?
+
You can run both. Ads and paid lead lists bring work for as long as you keep paying for them, and lead sites often send the same homeowner to several companies. Rankings put you in the free listings underneath, and they keep working between invoices.
09
Do reviews decide who shows up first?
+
No. They're one thing Google weighs, and the first thing a customer reads. Google also weighs how well your listing and pages match the search, how close you are to the person searching, and how well known your business is across the web. We work on all of it, reviews included.
10
Can you get us named in ChatGPT and Google's AI answers?
+
Yes, it's part of every plan at no extra cost. Google's AI answer for luxury landscape designers in Seattle names Angkorscape, a landscape design company we work with, and cites its site. We track where you're named every month and show it in your report.
11
Do you guarantee a #1 ranking?
+
We guarantee page one, in writing: visible improvement in your key metrics within 20 days or your payment back plus $200, and your qualifying keywords on page one of Google within 60 days or we keep working for free until they are. We confirm which keywords qualify on the strategy call. No long-term contracts.
12
Who is this for?
+
Landscape design-build, hardscape, lawn care and grounds maintenance companies doing $20,000 a month or more. We take on 15 new clients a month, so every one of them gets the work done properly.
