Securing Big Contracts: A Commercial B2B SEO Strategy
Client: A commercial fencing company specializing in security and chain link.
Challenges We Faced
The client wanted big commercial contracts but was only getting calls for residential backyards:
Wrong Keyword Targeting
Their site ranked for “fence builder” (residential intent) but not “commercial security fencing” or “industrial chain link.”
Weak Service Pages
They had no dedicated pages for “Security Gates” or “Temporary Fencing.”
No B2B Content
Their website looked like a residential installer, failing to build trust with facility managers.
Low Trust
Commercial clients need to see safety ratings and insurance info, which was missing.
Win Commercial Contracts
“Want more warehouse and security jobs? Our Commercial Fencing SEO services target property managers and facility owners.”
Our Approach – How We Solved These Challenges
Service Page Optimization
We built unique pages for every commercial application (e.g., “Security Fencing,” “Dumpster Enclosures,” “Automatic Gates”).
Local Keyword Research
We targeted terms used by facility managers, like “commercial fence installation” and “warehouse security gates.”
Off-Page SEO
We created unique landing pages for the major industrial parks they served.
Trust Signals
We added a “Commercial Clients” section with logos of past big jobs and safety certifications.
