Contractor Website Design in Hastings, MN

The problem

Showing up in the towns around Hastings

Say you run a roofing crew out of Hastings. Someone in Cottage Grove, 9 miles up Highway 61, searches Google for a roofing company and gets back a list of names. If your website only mentions Hastings, you won't be on it. Google makes Cottage Grove a list of its own and fills it with businesses whose sites say they work in Cottage Grove.

Someone in Cottage Grove is looking at that list right now, and if you're not on it they're calling somebody else. It works the same way in every town you drive to.

Hastings on Google

Local SEO in Hastings, MN

Local SEO means your business shows up on Google when someone in Hastings searches for the work you do.

Hastings grew from 18,204 people in 2000 to about 22,000 by 2010, and it has held there since. About 2,800 homes have gone up here since 2000, most of them before 2010. The rest of the housing is older than what you'll find in the suburbs to the west. Half the homes in Hastings date to the mid-1980s or earlier, and about 800 are from the 1930s or before. Three out of four are lived in by their owners, and when those owners need a contractor, they look on Google and put Hastings in the search.

Hastings is in the southeast corner of the Twin Cities, and Wisconsin is across the river. Prescott is 7 miles away and River Falls is 19. Cottage Grove is 9 miles up Highway 61, Rosemount and St. Paul Park are 13, Woodbury is 15, and Apple Valley, Farmington and Eagan are 19 to 22 miles out. Every one of those towns has its own list on Google. If your website names only Hastings, the calls from the rest of them go to someone else.

Questions

Questions people in Hastings ask

Do I need an office in Hastings to show up in Hastings?
No. Google's business profile lets you list up to 20 service areas, and a page on your site for each town covers the rest. A crew based in Cottage Grove, Rosemount or across the river in Prescott shows up in Hastings the same way, with a page about Hastings.
I work both sides of the river. Can one site cover Hastings and Prescott?
Yes. Hastings gets its own page, and so do Prescott and River Falls on the Wisconsin side, and Cottage Grove, Rosemount and every other town you work in. One site, one price, both states. Google gives each town its own list, and each page is written for that town.
I already have a website. Can you make it show up in Hastings?
We replace it. Your web address stays the same, and the new site goes up in its place with a page for Hastings and one for every other town you work in, Cottage Grove, Rosemount, Prescott and the rest of the river towns included.
Do you handle my Google Business Profile?
It stays yours. We line it up with the site, so someone in Hastings who finds you on the map sees the same name, number and towns on your website, and the service areas on the profile match the town pages. When something on it needs changing, we help.
How long until I show up in Cottage Grove?
A new page starts from zero, and it usually takes a few months to build up. Cottage Grove has close to twice the people Hastings does, so there's more on its list and it can take longer there. We don't promise a spot on Google. We build the page, tell Google about it, and keep it listed.

Ready to show up in Cottage Grove and every town around Hastings?
