Douglas County, Wisconsin

Contractor Website Design in Superior, WI

Superior is the seat of Douglas County, 26,751 people at the 2020 census, at the head of Lake Superior across the harbor from Duluth. Together they're the Twin Ports, and a contractor here works both sides of the bay: Oliver and the towns out Highway 2 on the Wisconsin side, Duluth, Proctor and Hermantown over the Blatnik and Bong bridges. We've built sites for concrete coating and sealcoating companies that show up on Google a long way from their shop, and we'd build yours the same way.

From Superior it's 6 miles to Duluth, 8 to Oliver, 8 to Proctor, 12 to Hermantown, 15 to Esko, 19 to Poplar, 21 to Cloquet, 26 to Lake Nebagamon, 30 to Brule and 32 to Solon Springs.

The problem

Showing up in the towns around Superior

Say you do siding out of Superior. Someone in Duluth, 6 miles across the Blatnik Bridge, searches for a siding contractor and gets a list of names. If your site only talks about Superior, you're not on it. Google gives Duluth its own list, and it fills that list with businesses that say they work in Duluth.

Google gives every town its own list. Someone in Duluth 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 Superior, WI

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.

Superior was platted in 1854 and had 40,384 people by 1910, more than it has now, and the town was laid out for that size. The port is the reason: the Twin Ports moved more than 41.4 million metric tons in 2004, the busiest year since 1979, and 25.3 million short tons in 2025, still the biggest tonnage on the Great Lakes. The Blatnik Bridge has carried I-535 across the harbor since 1961 and is being replaced, a $1.8 billion job planned to run five to seven years. The Bong Bridge has carried Highway 2 across St. Louis Bay since 1984. The refinery in Superior had an explosion and fire in April 2018, was rebuilt for about $1.2 billion, and restarted in 2023 with a capacity of 49,000 barrels a day, and Enbridge's Superior Terminal ties ten pipelines together.

More than a third of the houses in Superior were built before 1940, the median home dates to 1957, and about 1,200 units have gone up since 2000. Nearly forty percent of the homes are rentals. UW-Superior, a normal school when it opened in 1893, has about 2,900 students, and the Superior Municipal Forest, 4,400 acres of boreal woods in Billings Park, is the third largest forest inside a city in the country. Old houses near the lake mean roofs, siding, foundations and drainage, and the code puts footings at least 48 inches down on this side of the bridge and five feet on the Minnesota side, where St. Louis County is in the state's deeper frost zone.

What keeps crews busy in Superior

  • Roofing and siding

    About 4,500 homes here predate 1940, more than a third of the city.

  • Concrete and foundations

    Footings at 48 inches on this side of the bridge and five feet on the Duluth side.

  • Remodeling

    A housing stock with a median build year of 1957, and nearly 40 percent rentals.

  • Excavating and heavy civil

    The Blatnik Bridge replacement is planned as a five to seven year job, and the port and the refinery are here to stay.

  • Sealcoating and paving

    Driveways in town and parking lots along Highway 2 and Highway 53, plowed all winter.

Questions

Questions people in Superior ask

Do I need an office in Superior to show up in Superior?
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 Oliver, Poplar or across the bridge in Duluth shows up in Superior the same way, with a page about Superior.
I work both sides of the bridge. Can one site cover Superior and Duluth?
Yes. Superior gets its own page, and so does Duluth, 6 miles across the harbor, and so do Hermantown, Proctor 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 Superior?
We replace it. Your web address stays the same, and the new site goes up in its place with a page for Superior and one for every other town you work in, on both sides of the bay: Duluth, Hermantown, Cloquet and the towns out Highway 2.
Do you handle my Google Business Profile?
It stays yours. We line it up with the site, so someone in Superior 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 Duluth?
A new page starts from zero, and it usually takes a few months to build up. Duluth has more than three times the people Superior 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.
