People in Fort Mill are searching for exactly what you do about 2,400 times a month. You show up for your own name and almost nothing else.
The good news: your reviews and your reputation are already strong, which is the part that takes years. What is missing is the part that takes weeks. You have one website page trying to cover six services, and your Google profile is listed under the wrong primary category, which is quietly capping how often you appear on the map.
Section 01
Local search works in a fixed order. The lower items matter most and cost the least. We start at the bottom of this list and work up.
| Layer | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Google Business Profile | Broken | Primary category is "Contractor" instead of "HVAC contractor." Six services listed out of the eleven you sell. Last owner photo: 14 months ago. |
| 2. Reviews | Strong | 142 reviews, 4.8 average, most recent 6 days ago. 31 of them have no reply. |
| 3. Money pages | Broken | 2 of 14 needed pages exist. AC repair, heating repair, system replacement, and every town page are missing. |
| 4. Technical | Needs work | No sitemap. Three pages return errors. Homepage takes 6.1 seconds on a phone. |
| 5. Listings | Needs work | Your old suite number is still live on 7 directories, including Yelp and Apple Maps. |
| 6. Content | Not started | No pages answering what customers ask before calling: cost, emergency timing, repair versus replace. |
| 7. Links | Decent | 48 sites link to you, mostly suppliers and the chamber. Enough to compete locally. |
Section 02
Where you rank for "ac repair near me" across Fort Mill. Green is top three. Red is page two or worse.
Share of local voice. Of every map search across your service area, you appear in the top three 18 percent of the time.
1. Carolina Comfort Air · 61%
2. Steele Creek Heating & Air · 44%
3. Riverbend Mechanical · 29%
All three list "HVAC contractor" as their primary category. You do not.
Section 03
A page can only rank for what it is about. Right now one page is trying to cover everything, so it ranks for nothing in particular.
| Page | Status | Monthly searches | Currently ranking |
|---|---|---|---|
| Emergency AC repair, Fort Mill | Missing | 390 | Not in the top 100 |
| Furnace and heating repair | Missing | 320 | Not in the top 100 |
| AC installation and replacement | Missing | 210 | Not in the top 100 |
| HVAC, Tega Cay | Missing | 170 | Not in the top 100 |
| Heat pump repair | Thin | 140 | Position 38, homepage |
| AC repair, Fort Mill | Thin | 480 | Position 24, homepage |
Six more service and town pages are listed in the full appendix.
