Okay, let’s talk about that flawed Google search.
The problem with land clearing companies near me.
Every day, approximately 5000 people type in the Google search line “land clearing services near me,” which means that every day, 5000 people make a search mistake.
Land clearing companies near me is simply a geographic search. It asks Google to find companies which are close to your residence, period, end of discussion. It does not ask for the best companies; it does not ask for a price analysis; and it does not ask about experience. It simply asks for a list of companies which are relatively close to where a person lives.
And yet, amazingly, those people typing in the Google search then make calls based on the first few on the list presented to them. This is why companies pay thousands of dollars each month for Google analytics and hire professionals to write for them on their websites, giving them the best chance to appear first, or second, when someone does a Google search for a company like theirs.
It has nothing to do with quality and everything to do with advertising/marketing.
The smart alternative to land clearing companies near me.
Do you want the best excavation/land clearing company in your area? Do some research. Ask around. Make phone calls. Google can provide you with phone numbers, but you actually need to make the calls and ask about the qualifications of each company.
Ask for references. Follow-up and call those references. Call local contractors and ask who they would recommend for land clearing. Chances are excellent that after a number of phone calls, the same company names will be mentioned more often than not. Those are the companies to concentrate on.
The qualifications to look for.
In a business such as excavation, longevity is important. Once a company has been doing business for five years or more, they have an established track record which you can easily check. Their reviews will be consistently good.
What equipment do they use? What kind of insurance policy do they carry? How many employees will be working on the job? Are they certified? Are all employees certified and trained?
This may seem like an avalanche of questions, but they are questions you need answers to. It is your money paying for the job; it is your property being excavated and cleared; thus, you deserve answers to the important questions, and if answers are not available for a particular company, move on to the next one on your list.
No, geographical location should not be a determining factor when hiring land clearing companies. The job is too important to be concerned with how close they are to your home.
