SEO for landscapers
SEO for landscapers: more landscaping jobs from Google

How it starts
How people search for a landscaper
- Projects: "landscape design", "retaining walls", "paving", "artificial turf installation". Planned, often in spring, compared on photos.
- Maintenance: "garden maintenance", "lawn mowing service", "hedge trimming". Regular work, close to home.
- By area: "landscaper Robina", "landscaping Adelaide hills".
For most of these Google shows the local pack (the map and three businesses Google shows above the normal results for local searches). Landscaping SEO works on the map and the normal results.

From our experience
What we usually find on landscaping websites and profiles
Few photos on the Google profile, when landscaping is chosen on photos.
Design, construction and maintenance mixed together, so the site ranks for none of them.
Copied suburb pages with the wrong suburb left in.
No tracking through the spring rush.
