Find your plan in Missouri
What it takes to get found in Missouri.
Missouri's two big metros sit at opposite ends of I-70 and work in very different ways. In St. Louis, the city and St. Louis County are separate governments, and people identify by municipality and neighborhood: Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Chesterfield, South City, the Hill. Kansas City spills across into Kansas, and suburbs like Lee's Summit, Independence, Blue Springs and the Northland are separate searches. Springfield anchors the Ozarks, Columbia sits in the middle with Mizzou, and Joplin, St. Joseph and Cape Girardeau each serve wide areas. Lake towns around the Lake of the Ozarks and Table Rock Lake have their own seasonal markets. Service pages that name these places give Google a specific match.
Regions we write pages for: Greater St. Louis, the Kansas City metro, Mid-Missouri, the Ozarks, the Bootheel.
When demand moves.
Branson runs from spring through the Christmas show season, and the Lake of the Ozarks fills every summer weekend from Memorial Day on. Spring brings tornadoes and hail, which keep roofers and body shops busy, and summer heat keeps AC crews running. Fall is football and harvest, with the Chiefs taking over Sundays. Winters bring ice storms, furnace calls and frozen pipes, and the holidays keep restaurants and retailers in both metros busy.
Businesses with a lot to gain in Missouri.
Every one of our 171 industry plans works here. These six stand out.
Marketing a business in Missouri.
St. Louis City and County are not the same place
St. Louis City is independent of St. Louis County, and the county itself is a patchwork of small municipalities with their own rules. Customers search by those town names, so pages for Kirkwood or Florissant get closer to what they type than one page for St. Louis.
Kansas City businesses often serve Johnson County too
Overland Park, Olathe and Leawood sit minutes from Missouri neighborhoods, and customers cross back and forth. If you can work in Kansas, your site and ads should say so and name those towns.
Plan for the lake crowd
Families heading to the Lake of the Ozarks or Branson often live in St. Louis, Kansas City, Tulsa or Little Rock and plan their weekends from home. So we split the budget: ads aimed at those cities while they plan, then nearby searches once they arrive.
Do I need separate pages for St. Louis County suburbs?
If you want work in them, yes. Someone in Ballwin or Florissant often searches with that name, and a page built for it gives Google a closer match. A Growth Website covers up to 60 pages for $2,000, with extra pages at $25 each, so a contractor can cover the county suburbs and the parts of the city it serves.
How should a Branson business handle the off-season?
Keep your Google listing current with your real schedule, including the Christmas season and any weeks you close. In January and February we cut ad spend down and focus on reviews and site updates, then build up in spring when families start planning. Monthly services run on 30-day agreements, so the plan can change with your season.
Can you help a business that serves the whole Ozarks?
Yes. A Springfield company might cover Nixa, Ozark, Republic and Branson, and a lake-area company might work from Osage Beach to Camdenton. We set your Google service area to those towns, build a page for each, and use the dashboard to show which places bring in calls.
