01
What is SEO for moving companies?
+
SEO means getting your business to show up when people search. For a mover, that's three places: Google Maps when someone types movers near me, the normal list of Google results when someone types long distance movers and their city, and the answers ChatGPT and Google's AI give when someone asks which moving company to hire.
02
We get most of our work from referrals and moving lead sites. Why do we need SEO?
+
Because a referral still ends in a search. The person who was given your name looks you up before they call, and if what they find is a thin site with few reviews, they call whoever looks safer. Lead sites often sell the same move to several companies, so you're racing on price. A customer who finds you on Google is calling you, not a list.
03
How long does SEO take for a moving 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 moving 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 moving company start SEO?
+
Before you need the calls. People start planning summer moves well ahead, so a mover that ranks before the busy season gets first pick of the big jobs. Starting in the quiet months also means your crews aren't stretched while we set things up.
06
We do local moves and long distance. Do they need separate pages?
+
Yes. Someone moving across town and someone moving across the country type different searches and want different answers. The local customer wants to know your hourly rate, your crew size and how soon you can come. The long-distance customer wants the routes you run, how the quote works and how their things are protected on the way. Each gets a page written for them.
07
We run out of a yard, not a storefront. 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
Customers are scared of moving scams. Does that matter for our rankings?
+
It matters for whether they call. People check a mover hard before they hand over their home: reviews, a real address, insurance, your U.S. DOT number if you have one, and clear pricing. We put all of it where customers can see it, so the search ends with a call to you.
09
Should we just pay for ads or lead sites instead?
+
You can run both. Ads and paid leads bring work for as long as you keep paying for them, and lead sites often send the same customer to several movers. Rankings put you in the free listings underneath, and they keep working between invoices.
10
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.
11
Can you get us named in ChatGPT and Google's AI answers?
+
Yes, it's part of every plan at no extra cost. We work on getting your company named when someone asks an AI which movers to use in your area, and we track where you're named every month in your report.
12
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.
13
Who is this for?
+
Local, long-distance and commercial moving 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.
