Ramsey County, Minnesota
Contractor Website Design in St. Paul, MN
St. Paul is the state capital and the seat of Ramsey County, 311,527 people at the 2020 census, on the bluffs above the Mississippi. Ramsey is the smallest county in Minnesota and the most densely populated, so a contractor based here is in the suburbs a few miles out: Maplewood, West St. Paul and South St. Paul are seven miles from downtown, Roseville, Oakdale and Woodbury nine, and Minneapolis twelve. We've built sites for concrete coating and sealcoating companies that show up on Google a long way from their shop, and one of them already shows up in Maplewood, Oakdale and Woodbury.
From St. Paul it's 6 miles to Little Canada, 7 to West St. Paul, 7 to South St. Paul, 7 to Falcon Heights, 7 to Maplewood, 9 to Roseville, 9 to Mendota Heights, 9 to Oakdale, 9 to Woodbury and 12 to Minneapolis.

The problem
Showing up in the towns around St. Paul
Say you do windows out of St. Paul. Someone in Woodbury, 9 miles east on I-94, searches for window replacement and gets a list of names. If your site only talks about St. Paul, you're not on it. Google gives Woodbury its own list, and it fills that list with businesses that say they work in Woodbury.
Google gives every town its own list. Someone in Woodbury is looking at that list right now, and if you're not on it they're calling somebody else. Same in every other town you drive to.

The town
Local SEO in St. Paul, MN
Local SEO means showing up when someone in one particular town searches for your work. It starts with a page that's about the town.
St. Paul was the capital before it was a city: the territory put its capital here in 1849, and the city was incorporated in 1854. It peaked at 313,411 people in 1960 and had 311,527 in 2020, and most of it was built a long time ago. Forty-two percent of the homes predate 1940, the median home dates to 1952, and half the households rent. Summit Avenue runs four and a half miles from the Cathedral to the Mississippi, the Historic Hill District around it went on the National Register in 1976, and James J. Hill's house there dates to 1891. Ford's assembly plant closed at the end of 2011, and its 122 acres are being rebuilt as Highland Bridge, 3,800 homes, under construction since 2020.
Ecolab and Securian are headquartered in the city, 3M was here from 1910 until it moved its headquarters to Maplewood in 1962 and kept manufacturing in St. Paul until 2009, and the Winter Carnival has run since 1886. Ramsey County is Minnesota's smallest by area, 152 square miles of land with 552,352 people on it, and the most densely populated, so most of the work is on houses that are already standing: roofs, foundations, plumbing and wiring on about 57,000 pre-war houses, retaining walls on the river bluffs, and additions across the 17 planning districts the city drew in 1979. Footings go at least three and a half feet down, with Ramsey County in the state's 42-inch frost zone.

Every tradeQuestions
Questions people in St. Paul ask
- Do I need an office in St. Paul to show up in St. Paul?
- 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 Maplewood, Roseville or Woodbury shows up in St. Paul the same way, with a page about St. Paul, and a St. Paul crew shows up in the suburbs the same way.
- I work St. Paul and the east metro. Can one site cover all of it?
- Yes. St. Paul gets its own page, and so do Maplewood, Woodbury, Oakdale, Roseville and every other town you work in, across the river into Wisconsin if you go that far. One site, one price. 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 St. Paul?
- We replace it. Your web address stays the same, and the new site goes up in its place with a page for St. Paul and one for every suburb you work in, Maplewood, Woodbury, Roseville and the rest.
- Do you handle my Google Business Profile?
- It stays yours. We line it up with the site, so someone in St. Paul 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 Woodbury?
- A new page starts from zero, and it usually takes a few months to build up. Woodbury has about 75,000 people and a long list of its own, so it can take longer there than in a smaller suburb. We don't promise a spot on Google. We build the page for Woodbury the same way we build the one for St. Paul, tell Google about it, and keep it listed.
