SEO Services for Civil Engineering Firms

First Page Sage has over 12 years of experience providing SEO services to civil engineering firms. Our approach prioritizes long-term lead generation, combining conversion-optimized thought leadership content with search intent analysis.

Civil engineering is an industry that tends to invest little in SEO. As a result, the firms that engage in SEO campaigns find that they see excellent returns due to an uncompetitive search landscape. Leads originating from SEO are also warmer than those from paid sources, leading to shorter sales cycles and lower CACs.

Civil engineering firms have partnered with us to create:

  • An editorial series on designing earthquake-safe buildings for the San Francisco Bay Area.
  • A white paper analyzing sustainable building trends for new construction in Chicago.
  • Case studies on successfully completed sanitary sewer infrastructure construction projects.
  • A guide to understanding ACI Building Code requirements for structural concrete.

Civil Engineering SEO: Our Approach

Our approach to civil engineering SEO is based on our empirical understanding of Google’s algorithm. Over the years, Google updates its algorithm in order to better connect searchers with the content that best answers their search intent. In other words, the best way to secure and maintain high search rankings long term is to create an original piece of thought leadership for each target keyword.

This has three steps. First, we interview you and your team to learn more about who your ideal clients are. This allows us to determine which keywords they actively search, and then organize them into a Hub & Spoke content plan. Next, we analyze each of those keywords to determine exactly what type of page and style of content will best connect with those potential clients. Finally, we work with experts to create original content that is truly industry-leading, establishing your authority to both Google and the searchers that land on your page. After 4-6 months of regular publishing, we’ll have secured the News Website Bonus for your domain, rapidly increasing your rankings. By the end of our campaign, our goal is for your website to be your most valuable source of new leads to support the growth of your firm.
