What is a Google ranking?
First, let’s define a Google ranking. The Google ranking system is designed for a very useful purpose — to sort through a myriad of webpages finding information that is pertinent to a search that has been generated. For example, when a homeowner searches for “best kitchen & bath remodeling contractor,” Google uses a series of algorithms to quickly show its highest ranked pages with that information on it.
To summarize, a company’s Google ranking is based on a summary of the relevant information that the searching web crawlers find on their web pages. The crawlers locate keywords and mark them for reference. Then all of the referenced information is used to build the various algorithms that are used in the process of ranking.
Why do I need a good ranking?
Next, let’s talk about the importance of a good Google ranking. Keep in mind that when people are surfing the web, answers generate almost instantaneously. If they are looking for kitchen remodeling contractors in their area, you want your company name to be at the top of the list of possibilities. So, a good ranking is what a company needs to get the business that they want and need from online activity.
How do I improve my ranking?

To start, your contractor’s website needs to be running smoothly in order to boost rankings. Be sure that all of your pages are working properly. The information on the pages also plays into the ranking. This is where keywords — small phrases, location words, etc. — come into play. You need to research the words that your site needs to use repeatedly on web pages and blogs in order to make the web crawlers happy.
This side of running a business can be time consuming. You can always hire a marketing company that specializes in SEO growth and Google rankings. Talk to home remodeling contractors who have done this to see which company they recommend.
