Frequently Asked Questions
Blog posts are a powerful tool for attracting more clients and growing your business. They help improve your website's SEO, establish your expertise, and build trust with potential customers. By providing valuable content that addresses your audience's needs and interests, you can position yourself as a go-to resource in your industry.
Consistency is key when it comes to blogging. We recommend publishing at least one new blog post per month, but ideally 2-4 times per month for optimal results. This keeps your website fresh and relevant, signaling to search engines that your site is active and valuable.
However, we generally don't suggest exceeding 4 blog posts per month, especially for smaller contractor websites. Search engines like Google may not have the capacity to index all of your new content effectively if you publish too frequently, potentially limiting the SEO benefits.
Your blog posts should cover topics that are relevant to your target audience and address their pain points, questions, and interests. Think about the types of services you offer, the challenges your clients face, and the questions they frequently ask.
To maximize your local reach, ensure your blog post topics are tailored to your city or area. For example, if you're a roofing contractor in Toronto, you could write blog posts about:
- "Common Roofing Problems in Toronto Homes"
- "Choosing the Right Roofing Material for Toronto's Climate"
- "The Cost of Roof Replacement in Toronto"
- "Finding a Reliable Roofing Contractor in Toronto"
By providing valuable, localized content, you can attract clients specifically searching for services in your area.
Don't worry about the guesswork! We'll conduct in-depth keyword research to identify the most valuable topics and search terms related to your niche and location, ensuring your blog posts attract the right audience and maximize your SEO results. Then, we will write a high-performing blog post.
While there's no magic number, we generally recommend aiming for blog posts that are between 1,500 and 3,000 words in length. This allows you to provide in-depth information and insights while keeping your readers engaged.
All of our blog posts are in this 1500-3000 range to ensure maximum ranking potential.

It's a measure of how trustworthy and influential a website is, and it plays a significant role in determining its ranking in search results.
Consistent blog posts that rank high will increase your website's authority, thus increasing your search rankings for all your main keywords.
