In today’s digital age, having a strong online presence is crucial for any business, especially for plumbers in Hobart. But how do you know if your plumbing website is ranking well on Google? And more importantly, is your website search engine optimised (SEO)? In this blog, we’ll explore how to test your website’s ranking and ensure it’s optimised for search engines.
Recognising top plumbing websites that are performers in Google for the geographic location “Hobart”.
Before diving into the testing methods, let’s take a moment to recognise some local businesses in Hobart that are excelling on Google:
Google Business Profile Three Pack:
- Express Plumbing
- A&E Plumbing
- Howrah Plumbing
Organic listings positions in Google:
- Jackson & Cooper Plumbing
- Howrah Plumbing
- Express Plumbing
- Professional Plumbing
Express Plumbing and Howrah Plumbing clearly dominate the Google rankings, benefiting exponentially from such a presence as of 27 March 2025. However, just because these businesses are on top today doesn’t mean they own these positions permanently. Google rankings can be a moving fast, and with the right strategies, you can knock these businesses off their positions.
Testing your website’s ranking
To test if your plumbing website is ranking on Google for plumbers in Hobart, simply go to Google and search for “plumbers Hobart.” If you aren’t in the Google Business Profile three pack or the top 4 organic listings, then you lose, and your website needs help.
Is your website SEO-optimised?
Having an SEO-optimised website is essential for maintaining and improving your Google rankings. Here are some key factors to consider:
- Keyword optimisation. Ensure your website content includes relevant keywords like “plumbers Hobart,” “hot water installation Hobart”” and “domestic plumbers Hobart” Use these keywords naturally throughout your content.
- Quality content. Create high-quality, informative content that addresses the needs of your target audience. Regularly update your blog with useful tips and industry news. (At GOOP Digital)
- Mobile-friendly design. Ensure your website is mobile-friendly, as Google prioritises mobile-optimised websites in search results.
- Backlinks. Build high-quality backlinks from reputable websites. This can improve your website’s authority and help it rank higher in search results.
