Quick answers

SEO for tradies, answered.

What is on-page SEO for tradies?

Getting your own website right so Google understands it: clear page titles, a page for each service and suburb, structured data, speed and mobile fixes, and a tuned Google Business Profile. It’s mostly done once, not a monthly blogging grind.

How much does SEO cost for tradies?

Leadwow’s on-page SEO is mostly a one-off setup, with light upkeep as you add services or suburbs. There’s no 12-month SEO retainer, and we quote it on a free strategy call.

How long does SEO take to work for tradies?

Google can pick up on-page fixes within weeks, but rankings build over a few months depending on your area and competition. If you need leads sooner, we pair SEO with Meta Ads or Google Ads.

What’s included

Your site, Google-ready.

The on-page work that tells Google what you do, where you do it and why homeowners should pick you.

01

A page for every job and area

A page for each core service and each suburb you want more work in, written in the words homeowners actually search — not one catch-all “services” page.

02

Titles, schema and technical fixes

Clear page titles and meta descriptions, structured data for your business, services and FAQs, plus speed, mobile and crawl fixes so nothing holds the pages back.

03

Google Business Profile tune-up

The right categories, services and service area, real job photos, and a simple review request that gets customers naming the job and suburb.

Why on-page first

Fix the foundation before the grind.

Most tradie websites don’t need more blog posts. They need Google to understand the pages they already have.

Faster wins, lower cost

On-page fixes are mostly done once and picked up by Google within weeks — no long monthly retainer before you see anything move.

Local searches are winnable

“Concrete resurfacing” is a national term. “Driveway resurfacing Castle Hill” is what a ready buyer types — and a well-built suburb page can compete for it.

Helps your ads too

Faster, clearer pages convert more paid clicks and lift Google Ads quality. And every organic enquiry still gets Leo’s 60-second SMS.

How it works

What on-page SEO actually involves.

A one-off setup, then light upkeep as your business grows.

  1. 01

    Audit and keyword map

    We crawl your site, check what Google currently sees, and map the searches homeowners use for each job and suburb to the page that should rank for it.

  2. 02

    Page and content fixes

    We rewrite titles, headings and meta descriptions, build any missing service and suburb pages, add your own job photos with proper alt text, and link the pages together sensibly.

  3. 03

    Technical and schema

    Structured data for your business, services, reviews and FAQs; sitemap and indexing checks; page speed and mobile fixes. The stuff homeowners never see but Google always does.

  4. 04

    Profile, tracking and upkeep

    We tune your Google Business Profile, set up tracking so organic calls and forms are counted, then add new pages as you add services or suburbs.

What we fix

The on-page checklist.

The items we check and fix on every tradie site.

  1. 01

    Titles and descriptions that name the job and suburb

    “Home” and “Services” tell Google nothing. “Pool Cleaning Joondalup | Free Quote” tells it everything — and earns the click in the results.

  2. 02

    Structured data (schema)

    Local business, service, review and FAQ schema so your listing can show stars and questions in Google, and so Google knows exactly where you work.

  3. 03

    Speed, mobile and indexing

    Compressed images, a fast mobile layout, a clean sitemap and no pages accidentally hidden from Google.

  4. 04

    Photos and internal links

    Your own job photos with descriptive alt text, and service pages linking to suburb pages (and back) so Google can follow the structure.

What to avoid

SEO mistakes we see on tradie websites.

  1. 01

    One services page for everything

    Five jobs squeezed into one paragraph means none of them rank. Each job people search for deserves its own page.

  2. 02

    Paying for blogs before the basics

    Monthly blog posts won’t help if your titles say “Home” and your site takes eight seconds to load on a phone. Fix the foundation first.

  3. 03

    No tracking on organic enquiries

    If you can’t see which calls and forms came from Google, you can’t tell whether SEO pays for itself. We set up tracking before we change anything.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Ongoing SEO is a slow, monthly grind of blog posts and link building. On-page SEO is getting your own website right: clear titles, a page for each service and suburb, structured data, speed and mobile fixes, and a tuned Google Business Profile. It’s the foundation everything else stands on, and it’s mostly done once.
  • Mostly one-off. We do the setup in one go, then handle light upkeep as you add new services or suburbs. No 12-month SEO retainer.
  • On-page fixes can be picked up by Google within weeks, but rankings still build over a few months and depend on your area and competition. We won’t promise a #1 ranking. If you need leads sooner, we pair it with Meta Ads or Google Ads.
  • Yes. Faster, clearer pages convert more of your paid clicks too, and a well-built page helps Google Ads quality and cost per click. It’s the same page doing double duty.
  • Usually yes, for the jobs and areas you want more of. People search “pool cleaning Joondalup”, not “our services”. We build pages for the suburbs you’re happy to drive to — not every suburb in the state.
  • The right categories, your services and service area, real job photos, accurate hours and contact details, and a simple way to ask happy customers for reviews that mention the job and suburb.
  • Which pages are showing up, the searches they show up for and, most importantly, how many enquiries came from organic search. Every organic enquiry also gets Leo’s 60-second SMS.
  • No. Leadwow works month-to-month — we’d rather earn the next month than lock you into twelve.
