PLUMBING · BOISE, ID

Average rank 22 to 5, and emergency call volume up 4x

A Boise-area plumbing company buried below the national lead-gen sites. We rebuilt the local footprint around emergency and drain intent. Average rank moved from 22 to 5 and the emergency phone went up fourfold.

What we built

The specific playbook we ran.

Each piece maps to a part of the local SEO system. Follow a link to see how it works.

  • Google Business Profile rebuild and weekly post cadence
  • Drain, water heater, and emergency landing pages
  • Review request and rapid-response engine
  • Citation cleanup and schema to outrank the lead-gen sites
  • Monthly geo grid expansion across the metro

The geo grid

Red to green, zone by zone.

Two Local Search Grids for the same business: where the map sat at the start, and where it landed after 9 months. Illustrative data, not a specific client export.
