The return on ranking

A single siding job acquired through organic search can be worth over $15,000 in revenue. Consistently ranking for local terms provides a pipeline of these high-value projects, far outweighing the monthly SEO cost.

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.
