Wam Bam Handyman SEO Case Study

Top Handyman Keywords on Page 1 in Two Months

 In mid-2024, Wam Bam Handyman, a veteran-owned Handyman business in Colorado Springs, approached Elite SEO Consulting for assistance with their online visibility. Their website had been live for nearly two years, yet despite their consistent efforts in delivering high-quality handyman services, they had no notable search engine placement for either their brand name or relevant generic keywords like “handyman services in Colorado Springs.” This lack of visibility was concerning, as it limited their ability to attract new clients organically and capitalize on their excellent local reputation.

SEO Strategy

The team at Elite SEO Consulting quickly identified several issues hindering Wam Bam Handyman’s search engine ranking. Their website was not optimized for search, with limited on-page SEO, inconsistent keyword usage, keyword cannibalization and technical issues that prevented proper indexing by search engines. Additionally, the website lacked local SEO elements, which are critical for small, service-based businesses aiming to capture nearby customers. Understanding the urgency, Elite SEO developed a comprehensive strategy to improve the site’s structure, enhance keyword targeting, and build local authority, all with the goal of significantly boosting Wam Bam Handyman’s visibility and driving organic traffic.

Real SEO Results in Two Short Months

By focusing on five crucial generic keywords such as “Colorado Springs handyman services,” “handyman near me,” and “Colorado Springs handyman”,. Starting with a $1,200 monthly SEO investment, the strategy paid off quickly — in just three months, Wam Bam secured mid-fold page one placements for “Colorado Springs Handyman,” a high-intent local keyword. That breakthrough led to a 94% surge in organic traffic. Over the next 10 weeks, our team pushed them into Google’s prime real estate: averaging positions 1–3 in organic search and 1–4 in the Local Pack. This dual exposure — known as a SERP stack — positioned Wam Bam as a top choice for homeowners searching for fast, reliable handyman services in their area.

Today, Wam Bam Handyman averages eight qualified leads per week from organic search alone, closing about four new jobs weekly at an average of $680 per ticket. That’s $2,720 in revenue per week, or roughly $10,880 per month — all from SEO. Against their $1,200 investment, that’s a 9x return, not including repeat customers, referrals, or the long-term brand equity they’re now building. “Our job as an SEO agency is to make sure great local companies like Wam Bam Handyman show up where it matters — at the top,” said Mike Hodgdon, founder of Elite SEO Consulting. “Once you’re seen as the local expert, the leads don’t just increase — they start converting like clockwork.”
