Roofing website resources

Launching a roofing website for your company is one of the best ways to promote your business. While you don’t have to be a web designer to create a good website, there are some best practices you’ll want to know. Here are three ideas to keep in mind when building your site.

DESIGN

Set the tone for your online sales pitch. It should be attractive and easy to navigate; showcase your company logo; and should feature images that represent you, your crew, and examples of your best work.

CONTENT

Dedicate individual pages to topics like available services, company history, and contact information. Make sure each page is linked in the main navigation menu.

SEARCH ENGINES

Search engine optimization (SEO) affects how well your site ranks in search results. One key way to improve your site’s SEO is to include your business name, address, and phone number throughout your site.

Types of roofing advertising to consider

Here are some of the key types of digital advertising formats and marketing channels you can consider that may help you achieve more visibility for your business.

ORGANIC MARKETING

Organic marketing means driving business naturally over time, without spending any money. Organic tactics like sending out emails and posting a blog or social media, can help increase your brand recognition and boost your business.

PAID SOCIAL MARKETING

Paid promotional posts on Facebook, Instagram and other online platforms get displayed in user newsfeeds, and can often be targeted so you can find users who are most likely to become your next roofing customers.

PAID SEARCH ADVERTISING

Paid search advertising is also known as pay-per-click or PPC advertising. When someone types in certain keywords in search engines like Google, your ad can be displayed at the top of the search results.

ONLINE DISPLAY ADVERTISING

Perhaps the most “traditional” of your digital options is the banner ad, which can showcase your company on relevant websites using impactful graphics and copy.
