The return on ranking
Ranking in the local pack for 'pressure washing [city]' can generate 5-15 qualified leads per month. With a job value of $450, converting just two of these leads covers a typical monthly SEO investment.
Search intent is mostly local 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.
