SEO, PPC and AI-search marketing for home-service companies in the US

Home-service searches are urgent and local, and roofing and HVAC leads are among the most expensive to buy. Owning the map pack and running disciplined paid search lets you rely less on shared leads from marketplaces. Google Local Services Ads charge per lead rather than per click and are often the first thing searchers see for urgent home-service searches.
