What we found

The homepage never says Elk River

We checked the live page source: zero mentions of Elk River. The page has no H1 heading, an empty meta description, and a title that is only "ProTime Construction". Google has to guess where you work.

Your best facts sit on inner pages

License number, $1,000,000 coverage, RRP lead certification, published starting prices and the design and build steps are on FAQ, Pricing and Design/Build pages. The homepage is a few sentences and a photo slider.

Reviews have stopped

12 reviews, newest in August 2025. Six of the 12 have a reply from you. Royal has 129, Kiser 100 and Xtra Mile 74 on Maps. Reviews are the clearest gap in the pack.

Almost nothing for machines to read

The only structured data is a WebSite tag. There is no llms.txt file (404). The sitemap lists the homepage as last changed in 2021 and the project pages in 2020.

What we built for you

Elk River and the service, up front

The headline, page title and description all say general contractor in Elk River, MN. Your address, hours and map sit on the page.

Your own facts, moved to the front

A "what a remodel starts at" band ($70K+ kitchen, $40K+ bathroom, from your pricing page), your six-step process, and an "On the record" box with license, NARI, RRP and insurance.

Your photos and your reviews

Real jobs from your own site, grouped by room, and six of your Google reviews with names and months. All of it needs your OK before it goes live.

Structured data and llms.txt

GeneralContractor markup with address, hours and services, FAQ markup for eight real questions, and an llms.txt file so AI tools can read who you are and where you work.

Questions you will probably ask
What do you need me to confirm?

The year ProTime started (your site says 2001 in one place and 2002 in another), your license status for this season, your insurance, whether the $70K and $40K starting prices are still right, the towns you work in, and the reviewers you are happy to quote.

How long until Google moves?

We cannot promise a position or a date. Profile changes can show within weeks and search rankings take longer. We report the numbers every month so you can see it for yourself.

What is different from my Squarespace site?

Squarespace is a fine platform. The gap is the content: no city, no H1, no description, one data tag. The new site is custom code that says where you work and what you build.

Do I keep the site?

Yes. The site and the domain are yours. If you leave after the first three months, we hand everything over and you give 30 days notice.

Does this replace how I get work now?

No. Referrals and repeat clients stay your core. The site gives a neighbor who was told your name a place to check you out, and gives people who do not know you a way to find you.

Do I have to do anything each month?

About five minutes after setup: read the report, and tell us when a job wraps so we can ask the client for a review.
