Ranking number 1 on Google Fast.

Hi @tmpauling and thanks for this question. Seo is a long game, not a one-and-done. Google is constantly refining its search results to make sure it is providing the person doing the search the best and most complete answer to the question they are asking.

A few things you can do:

1. Customize your homepage so that includes more localization and sounds more like you, your company, and the region your site is concentrating on. This will be a balance between replacing all the Carrot generated content and still keeping enough of the content for seo optimization. Google likes long-form content. Make sure your content is helpful and provides value.
2. If you have a page specifically for Miami, don’t optimize for that keyword on other pages. When the same keywords are optimized for multiple pages, these pages can compete against each other and google will pick a winner. Additionally, optimize for your company name on your about page. More info here on keyword cannibalization.
3. Download the chrome browser extension SeoQuake. Take a look at the densities for your main keywords and bring Miami up closer to 2%. Great job at adding Miami to your heading (h2, h3) tags!
4. Do competitive research. What is your competition doing well that you can do better? This means expanding on what they have to provide more value. What are they missing that you can add to your site?
5. Get more testimonials. These can be character testimonials if you are having trouble getting deal testimonials.
6. Create a google business profile. You may have one but I didn’t find one when I searched for your business names. This is a great place to have the people you help submit google reviews. This helps google understand more about your business and connects your google business profile to your site.

This post talks about how long it takes to get to the first page on google.

Be careful with buying backlinks for cheap. These usually don’t perform well and turn out to be a waste of money.

I know this is a lot of info. Please let me know if you have any questions.

I’m glad I could help!
