As you can see, the list contains a combination of installation queries, brand queries, strategy queries, material queries, and more.
Unlike Google searches, which typically contain more commercial intent roofing keywords, YouTube searches are dominated by how-to and tutorial-based searches.
Here are some of the roofing YouTube searches that stood out the most:
1) How to Install Metal Roofing
Query: how to install metal roofing
Monthly Volume: 1.1K
Description:
People are using YouTube to learn how to install metal roofs properly. This is likely a combination of non-roofers exploring DIY installation or newer roofing contractors looking for context about certain parts of the installation process.
2) Roofing 101
Query: roofing 101
Monthly Volume: 400
Description:
Users are using YouTube to find fundamental information about roofing. Non-roofers looking for DIY advice or ways to get into the roofing industry are likely the main culprits of this search term.
3) Roofing a Shed
Query: roofing a shed
Monthly Volume: 250
Description:
People are going on YouTube to find information about roofing for sheds. Compared to more common property types like houses and commercial buildings, shed roofing is generally less discussed. We can assume that both roofers and DIYers are using this search phrase.
4) Roofing Sales
Query: roofing sales
Monthly Volume: 150
Description:
Sales are an essential part of running a profitable roofing business. As a result, roofers are going on YouTube to find information about sales techniques and strategies. Of course, some of the volume is also likely attributed to individuals who work for roofing companies but do not manually perform roofing services.
5) Roofing Fail
Query: roofing fail
Monthly Volume: 90
Description:
Any YouTube query that includes “fail” will return videos of individuals comedically failing at their jobs or professions. In this case, searches are looking for roofers caught on video messing something up. Most searches are likely to be non-roofers looking to laugh out loud at a roofer’s expense.
But as we all know from the popular roofing memes, many roofing professionals are unafraid to laugh at themselves and each other.
Final Thoughts
YouTube is often an untapped marketing channel for roofing companies. While you can’t expect to enjoy the conversion rates of ranking on Google, YouTube engagement can lead to sales and increase brand awareness and digital marketing synergy.
