Who links to a fencing contractor?

Suppliers whose systems you install, landscapers and builders who pass customers on, and clients with a public face, such as schools, clubs and farms. Local media join in when a storm has flattened half the fences in town. All of them mention a fencer because it helps their own readers, which is the only kind of link worth working for.

Our best fences are in private gardens. Can they earn links too?

Seldom directly, because a private owner has no website. They earn them indirectly: a well-photographed garden interests the maker of the boards or the designer of the garden, who may show it and credit you. That is why we ask after each notable fence who else was involved and whether the owner agrees to the photos being shared.

Should we sponsor a local team to get a link?

Sponsor it if you want to support the club, and treat the link as a side effect. Clubs usually list sponsors with a link, and that is natural. Sponsorships chosen only for the link, in places where nobody knows you, are a way of buying links under another name, and we advise against them.

Which pages of a fencing site should links lead to?

The fencing page that suits the source. A board maker links to your composite fencing page, a riding stable to paddock fencing, a landscaper to the page on how you work with other trades. Storm advice in the paper leads to the repairs page. The home page collects enough links without any help.

Plan for your industry

Link Building for Fencing Contractors

Link building for fencing contractors begins with the businesses you buy from, such as timber merchants and makers of posts and gate motors, which often list the installers they supply.

A fence around a school playground, a football ground or a farm everyone drives past gives local media a story and a reason to link.

Market realities

Online challenges for fencing contractors

Generic pitches to editors and links aimed only at the homepage waste time, while the pages people actually check before they choose get nothing.

Gate motor and panel suppliers name their fitters without a link

The makers and merchants a fencer buys from have every reason to mention the firm and often do, with no link.

An entry pointing to a page about their product, fitted on a real boundary, is worth asking for.
Landscapers and builders who finish their projects with your fence rarely credit you unless asked.

Fences everyone knows, credited to nobody

A school, a sports club or a riding stable talks about new fencing in public, and the firm that built it is seldom named.

A short project page gives the client something to link to when they announce the work.
Without it, the best-known fences in the area do nothing for your links.

What we do

Link Building approach for fencing contractors

For fencing contractors, we plan Link Building around sites that fit your topic, pages that earn clicks once the link is live, and a pace you can defend.

Suppliers of panels, posts and gate motors

The makers and merchants a fencer buys from are the first sites with a real reason to mention the firm.

Makers of composite boards, metal panels and gate motors keep lists of recommended installers, and we see that your entry is there, up to date and linked to the page about that system.
A timber yard or a concrete supplier you have used for years may have a customers or partners page, and a request made in person usually works better than an e-mail from an agency.

Landscapers, builders and those who hand work on

A fence is often the last stage of somebody else's project.

Garden designers, paving firms and house builders regularly need a fencer and often list the trades they recommend, and a link from such a page comes with a real referral.
In return your site can name them where it is true, on a page about how a garden project is put together, which is useful to readers and not a swap for its own sake.

Schools, clubs and farms whose fences everyone knows

Fencing for a school, a sports club, a riding stable or a parish is work the client talks about in public.

Such organisations publish news about completed works and thank their contractors by name, and we ask that the thanks carry a link to your page on that kind of fencing.
A short piece for the local paper on what to check along a boundary after a gale gives it a reason to cite you, and no link is paid for.

Link Building process for fencing contractors

Link audit

We check which sites link to you now, which links look doubtful and which of your pages deserve links first.

Who would link, and why

We list the businesses and organisations with a real reason to mention you, and the page each link should point to. For fencers, we start with the panel, post and gate motor suppliers who list installers, then landscapers and builders who hand work on, and the schools, sports grounds and farms with fences the whole town sees.

Outreach and content

We contact them with something worth linking to, and we never buy links.

Checking each link

We check every new link, the visits it sends and whether the page it points to gains ground in search.

Price: link building for fencing contractors from €400 a month plus VAT for the basic scope, three-month minimum. A wider scope is quoted after a free audit.

Discuss your project

Measurable outcomes

How we measure results for fencing contractors

Every link is matched to the material or gate page it points to, and to the site visit requests that page produces.
