Link Building for HVAC Companies
The links your competitor cannot buy, because they are local
Every HVAC company in your metro can buy the same guest post on the same generic blog. None of them can buy your chamber membership, your manufacturer dealer page, or the little league team you already sponsor. Those are the links we go after, because they are the ones a competitor cannot copy in an afternoon.
- Prospects found in your metro and your trade, never pulled from a link database
- Every live URL handed over with its referring domain, DR and real Ahrefs traffic
- No guest posts, no paid placements, no PBNs
- Prospect list built from your metro
- Chamber of commerce and trade association memberships identified
Which local sites actually pass authority
Every line is a deliverable, not a promise. If it is on this list it ships, and if it is not, it is outside the price.
Memberships you can prove
Chamber of commerce, ACCA, PHCC, your state contractor association. Every one of them publishes a member directory with a followed link, and most contractors either never join or join and never check that the listing links out.
Dealer pages you already earned
Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Mitsubishi and the regional distributors all run dealer locators. If you sell the brand you are entitled to the page. We claim it, fill it properly and make sure the link is live and followed.
The money you already spent
The team jersey, the school fundraiser, the county fair booth. Most of those organisations publish a sponsor page. Almost nobody asks them to link. We ask, and we send them the exact anchor and URL.
Pages with an address in your metro
Neighbourhood associations, city business directories that are curated rather than automated, and local news that covers business. Slower to earn, and the reason the set is hard to replicate.
What you already sponsor and are not linked from
Links from real local sites a competitor cannot copy. The chamber of commerce, the trade associations, the manufacturer dealer locators, and the teams and events you already sponsor. Every placement is a page with an address in your metro and traffic that is not zero.
See what it costsFind out which local links you can already claim
Most contractors have four or five sitting there unclaimed. Fifteen minutes and we will tell you which ones.
How we find links a competitor cannot copy
The clock starts when we have access, not when you pay.
We map your footprint
Your licence, your service area, the brands you carry, the associations you belong to and every sponsorship you already pay for. Most of the first tier comes out of things you are already doing.
We build the prospect list
Every candidate checked by hand for a real address in your metro, a page that is indexed, and traffic that is not zero. Anything that sells links is dropped.
We apply, claim and ask
Membership applications, dealer-locator claims and sponsor-page requests, each with the exact anchor and URL we want. Fees stay yours and are paid direct.
We hand over and recheck
A sheet with every live URL, its referring domain, its DR and its real traffic. Thirty days later we check each one is still live and still followed.
Why membership fees stay yours
Every item below is part of the fixed price.
- Dealer locator
- The find-a-contractor page a manufacturer runs for the brands it sells. The listing is yours by right if you carry the brand, and it usually carries a followed link.
- Editorial link
- A link a person chose to place because the page was worth citing, as opposed to one that was bought, exchanged or generated. It is the only kind that survives a spam update.
- NAP
- Name, address and phone number. Local search treats inconsistency across directories as a trust problem, and the inconsistency usually starts upstream.
What it costs
One price, agreed before we start, written into the service agreement.
One price agreed before we start. The full scope is written into the service agreement, so nothing gets added to the invoice later.
- Prospect list built from your metro
- Chamber of commerce and trade association memberships identified
- Manufacturer and distributor dealer-locator entries claimed with a live link
- Local sponsorship and community pages secured
- Every live URL handed over with its referring domain
- 30-day recheck that each link is still live and followed
Before you ask
The questions contractors actually ask before buying this, answered straight, including the ones where the answer is no.
How is this different from citation building?
Citations are directory entries that make your name, address and phone consistent. Most of them are nofollow and their job is trust, not authority. These are editorial links from organisations with a real address in your metro. Different job, and you generally want both.
Do you buy the links?
No. We do not place a single paid link and we will not work with sites that sell them. What we do pay for, and what you pay directly, are legitimate membership fees to organisations like the chamber or ACCA. Those are business memberships that happen to carry a directory listing.
Who pays the membership and sponsorship fees?
You do, direct to the organisation, so the membership is in your name and stays yours if you ever stop working with us. We tell you the cost before you commit to any of them and you can decline any one on the list.
How many links will actually land?
The tier is the number we deliver. If a target refuses or goes quiet we replace it, and we keep going until the count is met. What we will not do is pad the number with something we would not have picked in the first place.
Will this move my Map Pack ranking?
Honestly, less than your profile and your proximity will. Links are the slowest lever in local search. They matter for the organic results underneath the map and they matter for defending a position, but if you are not in the Map Pack at all, start with the profile.
Can you do this in more than one city?
Yes, and it changes the prospect list completely, because the chamber and the associations are different in each metro. That is quoted per city rather than bought off this page.
