The return on ranking

Ranking in the local pack for 'hardwood flooring [city]' can generate 5-10 qualified leads per month. Closing just one average job valued at $6,000 provides a significant return on a typical monthly SEO investment.

Search intent is mostly mixed and competition is high. Rankings here are geo split, so a national average position hides what a buyer in one metro actually sees. Positions warrant a weekly check rather than a monthly report.
