EQUALLY IMPORTANT
We are probably not the right fit if...
You need results in 30 days. SEO doesn't work that way, and anyone who says it does is lying to you.
You want to own the strategy internally and outsource only execution. We work as strategic partners, not vendors.
Your budget is under $2,000/month. We can't do our best work at that level.
The brands we work best with are past the “let’s try SEO” phase. They know it works. They want it done properly.
Portland construction & home services is a different game.
We’ve run SEO here. We know what it takes.
48,000 Portland contractors compete for Google. Win.
Portland's construction and home services market runs on word-of-mouth—but Google Local Pack now determines who homeowners find first. Only 3 businesses occupy the coveted local pack, yet 60% of your competitors aren't optimised. Reviews, citations, and keyword authority directly correlate with project pipeline velocity in Portland's competitive Pearl District and Division Street markets. SEO is no longer optional; it's your digital moat.
The 3 places Portland construction & home services brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 construction & home services brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
Ranked on page 2–3 for 'roof repair Portland' and 'roofer near me.' Had only 18 Google reviews (4.2 stars). Competitors with half the experience dominated the local pack. Monthly lead volume was flat; growth stalled.
Rebuilt Google Business Profile with service-specific keywords, local imagery, and call-to-action.

You shouldn’t have to wonder what your agency is doing with your money.
Every Friday, you get a Loom from your strategist. Not a report — a walkthrough. What changed, what we’re doing about it, what to expect next week. Several clients have told us it’s the first time SEO has ever made sense to them.
From audit to measurable growth, step by step
After 3–6 months, you rank in the Google Local Pack for your core service keywords, collect 30+ verified reviews, and generate 20–40 qualified leads monthly—directly from homeowners actively searching for your services. Your phone rings with intent-rich calls, not cold outreach.
Audit & Local Landscape
We map your current visibility on Google, analyse your top 5 local competitors, and identify quick wins in your Google Business Profile. We review your citation consistency across 20+ platforms—most Portland contractors are scattered or outdated here.
Profile & Citation Wins
We optimise your Google Business Profile with keyword-rich descriptions, service categories, and high-quality photos. We unify your NAP (Name, Address, Phone) across major citation platforms. This alone typically moves you up 2–3 positions in local pack.
Review Generation System
We implement a systematic, compliant review generation workflow. Homeowners are prompted post-project via email or SMS to leave reviews on Google and industry platforms. You build trust signals faster than competitors.
Technical & On-Page SEO
We fix technical SEO issues (page speed, mobile, schema markup) and optimise your site for high-intent service keywords ('emergency plumber Portland', 'roof inspection near me'). Content is written for humans and Google.
Monthly Optimisation & Growth
We monitor rankings, manage reviews, refresh content for seasonal demand, and refine strategy based on real search data. You stay ahead of competitors as the algorithm and market evolve.
The honest difference
We’re not going to call other agencies bad. We’ll just be clear about how we’re structured differently — and let you decide what matters.
| Omakaase | What we hear from most agencies | |
|---|---|---|
| Contracts | ✓ Month-to-month. Walk away any time. | 12-month minimum (standard) |
| Who's on your account | ✓ Senior strategist. Doesn't rotate. | Account manager, often junior, rotates 6–12 months |
| Reporting cadence | ✓ Weekly Loom video + live dashboard | Monthly PDF report |
| Attribution model | ✓ Revenue-connected from Day 1 | Rankings + traffic only |
| Cost transparency | ✓ You see where every dollar goes | Black-box retainer |

“They found a technical issue in week one that had been suppressing our rankings for over a year. Two previous agencies missed it completely. That was the moment I knew.”

Director of Growth · E-commerce Brand
“Month-to-month contracts and no lock-in wasn't just a selling point — it forced them to earn our business every month. They always did.”
Emma S.
CEO · Professional Services, $6M revenue
“We'd tried two SEO agencies before. Both gave us dashboards and monthly reports with no movement. Omakaase told us what was actually broken in week one and fixed it. Six months in, we're on page one for every term that matters.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long before we see results in Google rankings?
Local Pack improvements (Google Business Profile optimisation + citations) typically show within 4–8 weeks. Organic ranking improvements for competitive keywords take 3–6 months. We focus on quick wins first—reviews and GBP optimisation—which often generate leads immediately while longer-term SEO compounds.
How is this different from Angie's List or HomeAdvisor?
Those platforms are lead marketplaces where you pay per lead and compete with every contractor in your area. Google SEO puts you in front of homeowners searching organically, costs less per lead long-term, and builds your own brand authority. You own the relationship; the platform doesn't control your pricing.
Do you handle paid ads (Google Ads, Facebook)?
We specialise in organic SEO and Google Business Profile optimisation. Many clients combine organic SEO with paid ads for faster results, and we can recommend trusted partners. For most Portland contractors, fixing SEO first frees up budget and improves ad efficiency by increasing landing page authority.
What if we're in a highly competitive market (e.g., plumbing in Pearl District)?
That's actually where SEO wins biggest. In saturated markets, out-ranking competitors organically costs less than paid ads long-term. We use service-area targeting, seasonal keyword strategies, and review velocity to dominate local searches—even against larger chains with bigger budgets.
Can you guarantee #1 ranking?
No legitimate agency guarantees rankings—Google changes algorithms constantly. What we guarantee: a systematic process, transparent monthly reporting, and measurable lead generation. We've achieved #1 local pack for 60%+ of clients; rankings vary by market competitiveness and keyword difficulty.
