General Contractors
Keyword Research for General Contractors
General contractors get found for the phrases homeowners and property managers type, not the phrases the trade uses. HaloSEO finds those phrases and turns them into posts.
The phrases your customers search, not the ones the trade uses
People outside the trade do not say scope of work, rough-in or punch list. They type things like how much does a bathroom remodel cost, do I need a permit for a deck, or how long does a kitchen renovation take. HaloSEO connects to your website and finds the phrases that already earn traffic in your market and that you have no page for. It hands those phrases to the planner as subjects. You are not searching a keyword tool. The output is a publishing plan, not a report.
A worked example
Say HaloSEO finds that people in your area search for what a contractor deposit should be. You have no page on it. The planner takes that phrase as a subject and writes a post that explains how deposits usually work, what to put in writing, and what to ask before you pay. The post goes on your site, gets linked to your related pages, and backlinks are built to it. That is one subject from a plan, not a one-off article.
What local intent means for General Contractors
Most searches from your customers carry a place in them. Someone types general contractor near me, or a town name plus kitchen remodel, or the name of a county. That means the post has to answer for the area you work in, not for the country. A page about permit rules in one town is useful to a homeowner there and useless to someone three counties away. HaloSEO looks at the phrases that earn traffic in your market, so the plan reflects where your customers are.
Who this is not right for
This is not right for you if you want a keyword tool to search in yourself. HaloSEO does not work that way. It is also not right if you want a report to read rather than posts to publish. And it is not right if you expect a ranking, a position or a traffic number by a set date. We do not control search engines and we will not promise that.
