What Happened in the First 90 Days and Beyond

Centennial Roofing’s results showed up everywhere a modern roofing company needs visibility: traditional organic rankings, the Google Map 3-Pack, and AI search platforms including Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, and ChatGPT. Here is what the data showed.

Website Traffic

Once Centennial Roofing’s website was indexed with fresh content, a new design, and thousands of pins, its traffic ascended by 336.6% in the subsequent 90 days, resulting in 1,200 visits.

A jump of that size in a single quarter stands out in any market, but especially in the Nashville metro, where established roofing companies compete for the same local queries.

Traffic alone doesn’t pay the bills, but it is the leading indicator that a website’s content, structure, and brand signals are registering with search engines.

Google Map 3-Pack Rankings

Centennial Roofing secured “near me” rankings within the Google Maps 3-Pack for searches in Brentwood, TN, a clear indicator of a strong online presence.

Although proximity is a strong local ranking factor, it’s still essential to optimize your website (which is connected to your Google Business Profile), accumulate customer reviews, and upload fresh photos.

Pillars of Success

What Drove Centennial Roofing’s Campaign

Most roofing companies have tried SEO in the past, but few have ever received concrete information from their agencies about what drives success. Below, we are going to lay out the factors that influenced Centennial Roofing’s success.

01

Custom Website

Centennial Roofing’s new website design was part of the foundational shift that led to their success.

Web design encompasses more than just visuals and images; it also involves architecture and crawlability.

The Roofing Webmasters team designed a site that met our strenuous standards for SEO success.

DataPins

DataPins is a powerful local SEO software for roofers, but it requires the user to accumulate enough pins to gain traction.

Centennial Roofing did its part by dropping over 1,300 pins in under six months.

Many of their pins were carried over from previous job data (something the DataPins software can convert into SEO signals). Still, their ability to demonstrate their work boosted their metrics.

E-E-A-T Signals

Google has made it clear that E-E-A-T signals influence search rankings and trust in a company or entity.

As a BBB-accredited business, Centennial Roofing was able to showcase its credibility with a website badge that links directly to its accredited BBB profile page.

When combined with 600+ Google reviews and a strong local reputation, Centennial Roofing met Google’s increasingly high standards for trustworthiness.

Evaluating Future Projections

Centennial Roofing has established a solid SEO foundation with the assistance of Roofing Webmasters and DataPins.

Their 1,300+ pins stand out in a competitive market, and their 600+ reviews drive credibility and conversion across Google platforms.

Because each new pin publishes fresh, job-specific content to the website, Google continues to crawl the domain regularly, and new long-tail keyword opportunities surface as the company documents more of its work.

Additionally, the company’s strong visibility on AI platforms, such as ChatGPT, helps drive new leads while strengthening brand recognition.

When considering Centennial Roofing’s commitment to showcasing work and its ascending digital brand presence, its website traffic, lead generation, and conversion rate are all expected to increase continuously.
