Google Search For A Contractor, Bathroom

Mark Daniels

Let’s search for “Bathroom Contractors” (my profession) on Google, probably close to the same for most contracting businesses. 11/10/07.

This is how it came up.
Page #1

6.Do It Yourself .com-Contractor referral service

7.Repair-Home.com- Contractor referral service
http://www.repair-home.com/Bathrooms various , Home Depot, Long Bathrooms, Sears . Not quite sure who is running this one.
9.Leads2Fix- contractor referral service
http://www.leads2fix.com/estimatebathremodeling.asp seems to be a startup in LA area.


Out of 10 positions on the first page of a Google search for” bathroom contractor “, 8 are Contractor referral services and half of those are Service magic. Service Magic has a Page rank of 6/10, I think CNN may be higher. Over 1 million people a month use Service Magic x $30 a lead x 4 contractors. $120 million a month, I tend to doubt it but how much are they making?
It would be nice if local contractors would come up in the search. But I guess you can’t blame these companies, because after all it’s a free enterprise society and they know the system of the internet and create many linking sites to come up in the search, but who has an army of Javascript writers?

I actually come up 3rd other than the 2 sponsored SM sites
But I live in a small town and most of my work is in surrounding cities 20 miles away.

If I input that city I come up 27th behind my biggest competitor and 25 SM's and Knockoffs

Im a Brick Paving contractor serving Dayton, Cincinnati, and Columbus, Ohio. I pop up first in all of these areas for hundreds of keywords related to brick paving (in Dayton, Cincinnati, or Columbus) thanks to Result Imaging. And the best part is I only pay $200 per month which inlcudes my website (twobrothersbrickpaving.com), better search engine ranking, and unlimited pages and changes all for just $200 per month.

Let me know if you do a search related to brick paving in Columbus, Dayton, or Cincinnati, Ohio and I don't pop up in the top 5 so that I can have them work on that keyword.
