How Trade Businesses Can Improve Online Visibility Before Storm Season

When the wet season hits, the trades that show up online win the calls. Here's how to be ready.

Key takeaway

Visibility is preparation. Don't fix it after the storm hits.

Storm season in Far North Queensland is a brutal lead test. The trades that aren't visible online when something goes wrong simply miss the work.

Audit your Google Business Profile in October. Hours, services, emergency availability, recent photos. Don't wait until the first cyclone watch to update it.

A 'storm response' page on your website with clear, calm copy and a phone number can outperform every other page on the site for two solid months.

Reviews about emergency response work convert harder than any other category. Ask for them specifically when the job's done.
