Why does my site show up for my name but not my services?

Ranking for your name is nearly automatic. You're the only you. Ranking for 'kitchen remodeling franklin' means beating everyone else who wants it, and losing that fight usually has a boring cause: no page on your site actually TARGETS the service-plus-place phrase.

Ranking for your name is nearly automatic. You're the only you. Ranking for 'kitchen remodeling franklin' means beating everyone else who wants it, and losing that fight usually has a boring cause: no page on your site actually TARGETS the service-plus-place phrase.

The fix is structural: one real page per core service, each with the service and geography in the title, substantive content answering what buyers ask, and internal links from your other pages. A homepage that lists nine services in one paragraph ranks for none of them.

Then the credibility layer decides tiebreaks: reviews, citations, a few real local links, and time. Check Search Console after 60 days. Impressions for service terms appearing is the machine starting to turn.

This is the work. Want it done?

Everything here is free to use yourself. That’s the point. If you’d rather a senior marketer just handle it, in your accounts and your name: 20-minute call, no pitch deck.
