Client Background
Hod Chutes is a leading provider of construction debris chute rentals, serving contractors and property managers across the U.S. Their focus is on delivering reliable and durable trash chutes to streamline construction site waste management.
In January 2022, Hod Chutes aimed to strengthen their online visibility and drive more organic sales. The goal was to rank for high-intent keywords, increase daily impressions, and boost monthly revenue.
Initial Challenges
Upon initial analysis, the Hod Chutes website faced several SEO challenges:
- Low organic search visibility for core product keywords.
- Minimal organic traffic resulting in few online sales.
- Unoptimized service pages lacking keyword targeting.
- Insufficient backlinks and authority in a competitive niche.
SEO Strategy and Implementation
To position Hod Chutes for growth, I implemented a comprehensive SEO strategy, focusing on technical improvements, keyword targeting, and content enhancement.
1. Technical SEO Enhancements
A technical audit uncovered key areas for improvement. I optimized the site by:
- Improving page load speeds.
- Fixing meta descriptions and titles for key pages.
- Implementing structured data to enhance search result visibility.
2. Keyword Research and Integration
Extensive keyword research revealed profitable search terms. Focus keywords included:
- “hod chutes” – Branded term
- “trash chute rental” – High intent (Rank 1)
- “trash chute” – High search volume (Rank 4)
These keywords were integrated into service pages and product listings to align with searcher intent.
3. On-Page Optimization
Key service pages were optimized for better performance by:
- Enhancing page copy to naturally incorporate target keywords.
- Updating meta titles and descriptions to improve CTR.
- Structuring pages with clear headings and internal linking.
4. Content Expansion
I developed new service pages and blog content around frequently searched terms like “construction chute rental” and “debris chute installation.” This not only attracted new traffic but also educated users on the benefits of trash chute rentals.
5. Link Building and Local Citations
A targeted link-building campaign involved:
- Acquiring backlinks from construction-related directories and blogs.
- Submitting citations in industry-specific directories.
- Collaborating with partners for guest posting opportunities.
