Are you a home inspector pouring precious marketing resources into ranking for "home inspector near me" searches? You might be chasing a mirage.  In this eye-opening episode, we tackle one of the most persistent SEO myths in the home inspection industry. What many inspectors and marketing agencies treat as essential keywords is actually a location-based query trigger that operates completely differently from traditional keyword searches. I break down exactly why two people typing the exact same search can see entirely different results, and why optimizing your website for these terms is fundamentally misguided. We explore the reality of how clients actually search for inspection services (hint: it's not while standing in the property they need inspected) and share concrete data on the search patterns that truly drive business. You'll learn why Google's own terms of service prohibit most inspectors from displaying their address on Google Business listings, and how violating this rule puts your online presence at risk. Most importantly, you'll discover actionable strategies for targeting genuine location-specific keywords that connect you with clients. From basic optimization techniques anyone can implement to more advanced approaches like schema markup and structured data, we provide a roadmap for building sustainable search visibility without falling victim to ineffective SEO tactics. Whether you handle your own website or work with marketing professionals, this episode will transform how you approach online visibility for your inspection business.Check out our home inspection app at <a href='https://inspectortoolbelt.com/'>www.inspectortoolbelt.com</a> Need a home inspection website?
