In-depth SEO Analysis & Audit

If you already have a website, we’ll perform a full audit to identify areas for improvement. We’ll create an optimized platform to generate mortgage leads if you’re starting from scratch.

  • Set Industry-Specific Metrics: We’ll focus on measuring metrics like loan origination volume, online application conversions, and user time spent on site.

Researching relevant keywords is the first step in tailoring your SEO strategy to meet your target audience. We’ll find the big-picture topics and narrow them down to what your customers are really interested in. 

  • Mortgage-Specific Keywords: Target keywords related to mortgage rates, refinancing, home equity loans, pre-approval, and any other loan product you offer.
  • SERP analysis: We’ll show you exactly what your target audience is searching for and develop content around those findings.

SEO for Local Mortgage Lenders

In addition to big-picture SEO, local SEO is essential for mortgage businesses. It helps reach potential customers in your geographic areas and increases your visibility on search engines.

  • Local SEO: Optimize for local keywords to attract customers in your specific geographic area.
  • Google My Business optimization: One of the best ways to target local traffic is to ensure that your GMB profile is up-to-date and includes the right terms to help your audience find you.

Whether you have identified your top competitors or not, we’ll pinpoint who your online competitors are and ensure that your website is in top shape to compete. 

  • Competitive Analysis: Compare your website’s performance to industry-leading mortgage lenders.
  • Strategic competitive content: We find out what’s working for competitors, which keywords they’re ranking for, and the type of content they’re producing, and develop a content strategy that helps your business compete. 

We employ several strategies to help broaden your online reach and increase your website’s authority. 

  • Industry-Relevant Backlinks: We’ll seek backlinks from real estate websites, financial news outlets, and mortgage industry associations.
  • Internal Linking Strategy: We ensure a strategic internal linking structure is in place on your blog and throughout your website to help each article build authority. 
  • Partnerships: Promote your website by collaborating with other mortgage professionals, such as real estate agents or databases.
  • Press Releases: We create press releases relevant to your business and send them to major outlets to drive traffic to your website. 

On-Site Optimization for Mortgage Websites

Ensuring your website is organized in a way that makes sense to both Google and your target audience is important for conversion. We’ll ensure that your site is optimized for search engines and potential customers.
