The Problem
If You're Invisible in Local Search, the Call Goes Somewhere Else
Customers call one of the first businesses they see. If you sit at position 10, 15, or 20 across most of your service area, being better at the work doesn't matter, the customer never finds you.
Contractor SEO works when your Google Business Profile, your service pages and your reviews all point at the same service area. That's the system we build.
Your map coverage is inconsistent
You might rank near your office, then disappear across the rest of your service area, exactly where the jobs are.
Your website isn't pulling its weight
Thin service pages, unclear location relevance, and weak internal structure hold back your entire local presence.
You can't connect rankings to leads
Vanity reports aren't enough. You should see rankings, calls, forms, qualified leads, and booked jobs in one place.
Local, Metro, and Multi-Market SEO include GBP management, review requests and responses, light Google and social posting, and a free standard Smart Website. GBP Management is also available as its own starter service. Google Ads / LSA management is the optional add-on.

We take one trade per territory. When you claim yours, we will not work with another company in your trade anywhere in your area. Your competitors can't hire us. That's the point.
STEP 01
Check availability
Tell us your trade and your area. If your territory is open, it's yours to take.
STEP 02
Lock it in
Pick your plan. The moment you enroll, your territory comes off the market for everyone else in your trade.
STEP 03
Own your map
Every ranking, page, review, and lead system we build works for you alone, for as long as you hold the territory.

FAQ
Questions Home-Service Owners Ask About OTTO SEO
How does territory exclusivity work?
We take one trade per territory. When you lock in your territory, we won't work with another company in your trade in your area, your competitors simply can't hire us. Territories are first come, first served, and yours stays protected for as long as you're a client.
What if my territory is already taken?
We'll tell you straight away when you check availability. If your service and area are already claimed, you can join the waitlist and we'll contact you first if the territory opens up.
Which plan should I start with?
Choose GBP Management for standalone profile support. Choose Local, Metro, or Multi-Market SEO to match your service area. Choose JobFlow to combine SEO with your website, Otto, booking, follow-up, and ads management.
Is the website rebuild really included?
Yes. Local, Metro, and Multi-Market SEO each include a free standard Smart Website. GBP management, review requests and responses, and light Google and social posting are also included. Advanced custom builds are quoted separately.
How quickly will I see results?
The case studies above show substantial movement over six months, but every market and starting point is different. We don't guarantee a specific ranking or timeline, no honest SEO company can.
Does OTTO SEO help with Google Maps and AI search visibility?
Yes. The work strengthens the same website, local-business, content, and authority foundations used by Google Search and Maps. We also track whether your business surfaces across AI platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity for your key searches.
Is there a long-term contract?
We confirm the service term and any setup fee in your proposal before you sign up. For JobFlow, a six-month commitment waives setup; a month-to-month option carries a quoted setup fee.
Does the Google Ads plan include ad spend?
No. Standalone Google Ads / LSA management starts at $997/month. Media ad spend is always extra, including with JobFlow.
Can OTTO guarantee first-place rankings?
No reputable SEO provider can guarantee a particular position. OTTO focuses on improving the website, Google Business Profile, content, authority, measurement, and conversion path you need to compete, and shows you the data as it moves.
Do I need a separate SEO page for every city I serve?
Not automatically. Add a city page when it can provide useful local information, such as the services available, actual work completed and a clear reason to choose your business there. Repeating the same text with a different city name adds little value. Build a clear service-area structure before expanding the page count.
Is local SEO a one-time project?
Some fixes can be completed once, while service information, competitive gaps, and new content need ongoing attention. Your scope should explain which tasks are recurring and why, and distinguish maintenance from new work.
What's the difference between contractor SEO and Google Ads?
SEO for contractors earns your place on Google Maps and in organic results over time, so you don't pay per click. Google Ads and Local Services Ads put you at the top right away, and you pay per lead or click. Most contractors use both: ads for fast calls and SEO for the calls that keep coming. See our Google Ads and LSA management.
Do you do SEO for HVAC, plumbing and roofing companies?
Yes. Our home services SEO covers HVAC, plumbing and roofing companies, plus garage door, landscaping, pest control and electrical businesses. Each trade searches differently. As a home service SEO agency, we build around how your customers look for you.
Your Territory Only Goes to One Company
Check availability, see your free audit, and lock in your service area before a competitor does. Once a territory is claimed, it's off the market.
