What actually breaks

No analytics — nobody is measuring what the site does
on 14 of them.

We recorded every fault we could see on the 38 Oshawa sites. The one that turns up most is no analytics — nobody is measuring what the site does — 14 of them. Next is page title does not name the city they work in on 11, then no meta description, so google writes its own on 9.

A site here that fixes no analytics — nobody is measuring what the site does alone is already ahead of 14 local competitors on that count. That is the whole argument for doing the dull parts first.

Questions

Before you ask.

How many HVAC contractors are there in Oshawa?

42 listings, of which 9 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 33 are either missing a site, running a broken one, or running one with at least one fault we could see from outside.

How many Google reviews do I need to compete in Oshawa?

To be average in Oshawa you need 25. To be in the top quarter you need more than 74. To be visible next to the busiest HVAC contractor here you would need 9,731, which took them years. 24 of the 42 already hold a 4.9 rating, so the rating is not what separates them.

What does a website for a HVAC contractor in Oshawa cost?

Between $590 and $3,900 depending on the size of the practice and how many services need their own page, paid after the site is built and you have seen it. Hosting, edits, your Google Business Profile and ongoing SEO run $129 to $990 a month, cancellable any month.
