From Invisible Online to $1.2M in Revenue
How Jon Doubled His Contracting Business With SEO
Jon is a Colorado-based outdoor and general contractor. He does the kind of work homeowners love — outdoor living spaces, hardscaping, structural projects. And he does it well.
But for over a year, almost nobody could find him online. He was paying for SEO. He was waiting for it to work. And nothing was happening.
Where Jon Was Before
Jon had been paying an SEO agency for over a year. He had nothing to show for it. No rankings. No calls from Google. No idea what they were even doing with his money.
He was invisible on Google in a market where homeowners were searching every single day for exactly what he does. His competitors — some of them doing worse work — were showing up at the top. He wasn’t even on the first page.
On top of that, his business was in a tough spot financially. The lack of consistent inbound leads meant he was always chasing work, and the uncertainty was wearing on him.
He needed something to change. Fast.
What We Did for Jon
We started from scratch on his organic presence.
First, we audited everything — his website structure, his Google Business Profile, the keywords he was and wasn’t ranking for, and why his previous SEO work had produced nothing.
Then we rebuilt it the right way. Proper page structure. Location pages for his service areas. Service pages with real content that Google could read and understand. A Google Business Profile that was fully optimized, active, and sending the right signals.
We also built a review system so that his happy clients were actually turning into Google reviews — consistently, not just once in a while.
No tricks. No shortcuts. Just the fundamentals done correctly.

In Jon’s Words
“We fixed his organic presence so homeowners could actually find and trust him.”
That’s the whole thing. He was already good at his job. He just needed the right people to know he existed.
What This Means for You
If you’ve tried SEO before and it didn’t work, Jon’s story is probably familiar. You paid someone, waited, and got nothing. It’s one of the most common things we hear.
The problem usually isn’t SEO itself. The problem is that most agencies don’t actually know what they’re doing for contractor businesses specifically. They apply generic strategies that don’t move the needle in a local, competitive service market.
We do this for contractors only. We know what Google needs to see to rank a contractor business. And we’ve proven it works.
