The Challenge


Client want to address:


  • Not ranking for “24 hour plumber Las Vegas”, “clogged drain repair”, or “best plumber in North Las Vegas”


    • Previous Marketing company did not get client to any ranked keywords


  • Limited Google Business Profile (GBP) visibility


    • Profile was missing key conversion attributes (website, phone number, updating, business description)


  • No structured service pages (weak H1-H3 hierarchy, no semantic clarity)


    • Website was built with massive amount of repeating words and phrases, mass amount of illogical copy that never converted


  • Few leads coming from organic search


    • No leads, no traffic, no visits, no new customers


  • Competitors dominating Google Maps and AI Overviews


    • Other plumbers had better converting website, in which this client had more employees, more reach for customers in Las Vegas and surrounding area.



The Solution


Local SEO Optimization


  • Rebuilt and optimized Google Business Profile (with location, services, images, reviews)


    • Used High-Quality, On Location photos to show the work being done


  • Submitted citations to 50+ local and niche directories


    • Focus on local citations in Las Vegas, High Domain Authority


  • Education and Tutorial Content to inform visitors and create EEAT (Experience, Expertise, Authority & Trust)


    • Giving a visitor a sense of knowledge and ability to accomplish simple fixes/repairs


On-Page Semantic SEO


  • Structured H1–H4 for each service (e.g. Clogged Drain Repair, 24 Hour Emergency Plumbing)


    • Site Structure is required for ERS (Embedded Relevance Score) (LLM's)

  • Added schema: LocalBusiness, Service, Plumber, and FAQPage


    • Schema is required for AI Mentions, LLM's, and ERS


  • Updated title tags and meta descriptions with geo-targeted keywords


    • Local SEO, Local EEAT, and consistant marketing effort for "Top of Mind"


AI Optimization for Answer Engines


  • Added service-level FAQs (e.g., “What to do in a plumbing emergency?”)


    • This added helpfulness to visitor (EEAT) and education about DIY ability which would establish conversion if DIY efforts did not work or got worse


  • Focused on LLM chunking: used semantic headers, short-answer formatting


    • The new method for AI success is - Short and Sweet, KISS (Keep it Simple Stupid)


  • Internally linked from homepage to deep service pages to improve content flow


    • This is a requirement for LLM's, Agentic Webflows, AI Mentions


Technical Cleanup


  • Improved mobile speed via image compression & lazy loading


  • Set up GA4 (Google Analytics) + GSC (Google Search Console) tracking for AI referral mentions (AI Overviews, Gemini)
