SEO for home care

Where adult daughters actually find you at 11pm on Google.

because that's when she's searching ↓

We're the SEO and growth firm built exclusively for home care agencies. No agencies that also do dentists, plumbers, and gyms. Just home care — because the 11pm searcher deserves to find someone who understands.

Why specialists win

Generalist agencies treat home care
like it's a lawn-care business with sad music.

It isn't. The buyer is different. The grief is real. The trust bar is higher. And the search behavior is unlike any other local service. That's why we do this — and only this.

We know who's actually searching.

It's the daughter, not the patient. She's 54, she Googled at 11pm, she's overwhelmed and skeptical. Every word of your site and every ranking strategy is built around her.

We build for local + AI search.

Google Maps. AI Overviews. ChatGPT recommendations. Bing. We engineer your visibility across every place an adult daughter might ask the question — not just blue links.

We turn your site into a hug.

Trust is the conversion lever in home care. Photography, microcopy, real reviews, transparent pricing, real caregivers — every detail engineered to say "you can breathe now."

Why we exist

Built by someone whose
mom needed home care, and couldn't find good help.

Eight years ago, our founder spent a Sunday night searching for in-home care for his mother. Every agency website looked the same. None said anything real. Most ranked their stock-photo competitors above local agencies that actually employed great caregivers.

He picked the wrong one. Twice.

That's why this agency exists — to make sure the families searching at 11pm find the local home care companies who deserve to be found. Not the franchises with the biggest marketing budgets.

How much does home care SEO cost?
Pricing & contracts

Home care SEO services typically range from $1,000 to $5,000 per month depending on your market competitiveness, service area size, and goals. Our engagements start at $1,297/month for single-territory agencies (Starter), $2,497/mo for multi-city or competitive metros (Growth), and $4,997/mo for multi-location operators and franchisors (Scale). Every plan includes technical SEO, content production, local search optimization, Google Business Profile management, review acquisition, AI search optimization, and reporting — no media markups, no platform fees. Setup is a one-time $497 specialist audit, far below the $2,000 most generalist agencies charge.

How long does home care SEO take to work?
Results & timing

Most home care agencies see meaningful first-page rankings within 45–90 days for moderate-competition local keywords, and lead volume meaningfully increases in months 3–5. By month 8, organic search should be your highest-volume, lowest-cost lead source. We benchmark every 30 days against your starting baseline so the math is never fuzzy.

Can you guarantee rankings or a certain number of leads?
Results & timing

No, and be wary of any agency that does. Google controls rankings, and nobody outside Google can promise a position or a lead count. What we commit to is the work: a documented plan, the fixes and content delivered every month, and a report every 30 days comparing your calls, inquiries and rankings against your starting baseline, so you can judge it with real numbers.

What does the free SEO audit include, and is there a catch?
Working together

No catch. It is a 30-minute conversation where we look at how families find you today: your Google Maps and organic visibility, your three closest local competitors, your Google Business Profile, and how well your website turns visitors into calls. You leave with the top fixes in priority order, whether or not you ever hire us. If you want a head start, run your site through the free Website Grader first.

What's the contract like? Am I locked in?
Pricing & contracts

We work month-to-month after a 90-day initial engagement (which has a minimum because the foundation work is real and can't be undone in 30 days). After that, you can cancel any time with 30 days notice. 94% of our clients are still with us after year one — but that's a choice, not a contract.

What is local SEO for home care agencies?
Services

Local SEO ranks your home care agency for geographic searches like "home care near me" or "in-home senior care [city]." It focuses on Google's local 3-pack (the map results), Google Business Profile optimization, local citations on directories like Caring.com and A Place for Mom, NAP consistency, location-specific landing pages, and locally-relevant reviews. For home care agencies, local SEO drives 60–75% of organic inquiries.

Should I invest in SEO, Google Ads, or both?
Services

They solve different problems. Google Ads can put you in front of families within days, but the leads stop when the budget stops. SEO takes longer to build but compounds, and over time it usually becomes your lowest-cost source of inquiries. Many agencies run both: ads to cover the gap while SEO builds. We manage Google Ads for a $497 setup fee plus 10% of ad spend, your ad spend goes straight to Google, and we never mark up media.

Do you optimize for AI search like ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews?
Services

Yes. AI search optimization is part of every engagement. Adult daughters increasingly ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews for home care recommendations — and these systems pull from structured data, citations, and authoritative content differently than traditional search. We optimize your content for entity recognition, ensure your agency is properly structured in schema markup, and build citations on sources AI models trust.

Can you help us get more Google reviews?
Services

Yes. Reviews are one of the biggest drivers of local rankings and of whether a family calls you or the agency next to you. We set up a simple, compliant process for asking happy clients and families for reviews and for replying to every review, good or bad. We will never write, buy or gate reviews, because that violates Google's rules and can get your profile suspended. See reputation management.

Do you help with caregiver recruiting, not just client leads?
Services

Yes. For most agencies, finding caregivers is as hard as finding clients. We build job-seeker landing pages, optimize for searches like "caregiver jobs near me," and run targeted recruiting campaigns so you rely less on job fairs and job boards. Caregiver recruiting marketing works alongside your client-facing SEO.

Can you help us get referrals from hospitals and discharge planners?
Services

Yes. A lot of the best clients arrive through referral sources, not search. We help you build the pages, materials and outreach that discharge planners, social workers and elder-law attorneys need in order to trust and refer you, and we make sure your local presence backs up what they find when they look you up. See referral partner marketing.

How do you report results, and how often?
Results & timing

Every 30 days, against the baseline we capture at the start. The focus is on outcomes that matter to an agency: phone calls, form inquiries, Google Maps visibility for your core searches, organic traffic, and where possible the inquiries that turn into booked assessments. Reports are plain English, not a PDF of vanity charts, and we walk through them with you.

What do you need from me to get started?
Working together

Not much. Access to your website, Google Business Profile, Google Analytics and Search Console (or help creating them), a list of the areas you serve and the services you offer, a rough idea of how inquiries are handled, and about an hour of your time to talk through your best clients. We do the rest and tell you what we need when we need it.

Who owns the accounts, website and content?
Working together

You do. Your Google Business Profile, Google Analytics, Search Console and ad accounts stay in your name and we work in them as added managers, so you can remove our access at any time. A website you buy from us is yours. The one exception is our rent-a-website option (from $397 down and $197/mo), where the site is rented and not owned; we say so up front.

Is your work HIPAA-safe? Should I send you client information?
Working together

We don't need any patient or care-recipient information to do our work, and you should never send it through a website form or an email to us. If a project ever touches protected health information, such as call recordings, we will raise it and agree on the right safeguards, including a business associate agreement, before anything starts.

Do you only work with home care agencies?
Working together

Yes, exclusively. Non-medical home care, home health, senior living, and hospice — but we don't take dentists, plumbers, gyms, or anyone outside the home care ecosystem. That focus is our entire edge. We know your buyer, your regulators (HIPAA), your competitive set, and your franchise dynamics.

Do you work with multi-location agencies and franchises?
Working together

Yes. Our Scale plan is built for multi-location operators and franchisors, with location-specific pages and a Google Business Profile for each office.

We already work with a marketing agency. Can you still help?
Working together

Yes. Many agencies come to us wanting a second opinion first. Book the free audit, tell us what your current agency is doing, and we will give you an honest read on whether it is working, even if the answer is "stay where you are." If it makes sense to switch, we will plan the transition carefully so your rankings and lead flow are protected.

How much does a home care website design cost?
Website design

Home care website design typically costs $5,000 to $25,000 for a strategic, conversion-optimized site. Our standard builds run $8,500 to $14,500 and include custom design (no templates), mobile-first build, conversion-optimized intake forms, HIPAA-aware contact handling, on-page SEO foundation, local schema markup, and CRM integration. Cheap template sites ($500–$2,000) consistently underperform on conversion and rarely rank.

Do I need a new website, or can you fix the one I have?
Website design

Sometimes the existing site is fine and just needs better pages, speed and tracking, and we will tell you so. If it is slow, hard to use on a phone, built on a template that cannot be fixed, or does not turn visitors into calls, a rebuild pays for itself faster. We figure out which one it is in the audit before recommending anything.

Can I finance a new website?
Website design

Yes. Website builds can be financed at 0% interest over 18 to 24 months with a deposit you choose, from 10% to 50% of the price. Prefer the lowest upfront cost? You can also rent a site from $397 down and $197 a month. See the options and a live payment calculator on our website design page.
