Your Site Metrics
SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION
You Awesome Metrics DO NOT MATCH YOUR RANKINGS!

Insights
WEBSITE
All of your top competitors shared the same trait on their websites. They have a unique service page for each of their locations. Let's explain it. Southern Pest Control has 7 main services, Pest Control, Termite Control, Commercial Service, Specialty Services, Pet Lovers Service, Don’t Do It Yourself, and the Platinum Pest Control Service Plan. Plus you have 11 specialty services. To combat their technique to have a winning chance
each of your locations would have to have 7 to 11 service pages tailored to that specific location.
Example: Austin will have Austin pest control, Termite Control Austin, etc etc etc.
GMB Listings
It's highly recommended to be as specific as possible. In the DFW alone there are dozens of cities, neighborhoods & a handful of Counties. You are using ONE GMB to in the entire metroplex. These listings also need to be optimized. They also behave in a bad way, by going to the ocean on certain clicks. Could have possibly been set up outside of the USA and could be a pain to reverify if prompted with mail or video verification.

Out of 20 competitors measured, their average ad spend is $15k/mo or 300 to 500 per day in Google Ads
