What Google weighs

Why one foundation repair company outranks another

The primary category: Google has to list you as a foundation repair company first, not something close. One wrong category and you're invisible for every search above.
Reviews: how many, how recent: The businesses in the top 3 for "foundation repair" in Charleston usually have more reviews, and newer ones, than the ones below. Steady beats a burst.
Services on the profile: Foundation repair, Crawl space encapsulation, Moisture control, Waterproofing: each one listed on your Google profile is a match for a search like "foundation repair". Most foundation repair companies list none.
A page for each service: A site page that talks about foundation repair the way customers do gives Google a reason to show you for "foundation repair". A single homepage doesn't.
Photos and hours: Real photos of the work, added regularly, and hours that match your door. Google reads both as "this business is alive."
Distance, which you can't change: Google favors whoever's closest to the searcher. Everything above is how you win the spots that aren't right next door.
