Houzz Optimization

WHY DOES HOUZZ MATTER?

Houzz is a multi-billion dollar marketplace that has invested tens of million dollars into self-promotion.

Houzz is at the top of Google search results for local home pro searches and receives an estimated 67% of all home pro search traffic.

Homeowners that previously only hired home pros referred from friends are now equally turning to online search of portfolios and reviews.

40 million people visit Houzz every month. Houzz reaches an affluent, educated audience who are actively remodeling and decorating. 90% are homeowners. 70% are college graduates. 66% have a household income greater than $100K. 79% have a home valued at more than $200k, and 29% have a home valued at more than $500K.

Billions of dollars every year are invested in home improvement projects through pros discovered on Houzz.

Countless pros have reported multi-million dollar budgets from Houzz leads. Whether your business aims for smaller and quicker projects or larger and longer ones, Houzz leads can be a serious contributor to your business’ bottom line.

HOW TO GET IDEAL CLIENTS ON HOUZZ

53% of searchers have been found to click on the first result, making that top position a much-coveted treasure–providing status, credibility, visibility, leads, and sales.

A top position is the digital equivalent of a Park Avenue retail location. It often creates instant credibility, gets a ton of traffic, and leads to surges in revenue.

The #1 listing in the pro directory is organic (it is a free profile that is well optimized). Optimization is the one and only way to get to the top. And, it is the only viable way to consistently be seen by ALL local searchers.

Optimization of a Houzz organic profile is a better investment than Houzz’ paid Pro+ advertising.

CONS OF
HOUZZ’ PRO+ ADVERTISING

  • Organic positions are more consistent than the paid Pro+ positions that Houzz sells. An organic listing always shows in the #1 spot. Paid positions are marked as sponsored and at best show below the top organic position.
  • Pro+, pitched as a one-size-fits-all solution, puts you in rotation with all other subscribing pros in your area. Houzz has shared with us that some markets have as many as 150 home pros in the Pro+ rotation, leaving your profile seen near the top only 1 out of every 150 searches. The odds are simply stacked against you in being seen by the right client at the right time.
  • Earned organic positions through optimization are inherently more credible than the paid ones via Pro+, as the Pro+ results are labeled as ads, as “sponsored.”
  • No amount of investment directly with Houzz will get you to being seen in the #1 position – you just can’t buy that type of advertising. At best, Pro+ advertisers are shown in rotation as high as the second position –never as #1.
  • Pro+ sometimes delivers results (we aren’t saying it is all bad). However, it is a far inferior investment to organic Houzz optimization. The ROI is always better in optimization over advertising – as seen not just in Houzz, but also in Google, and in all other search engines and directories.

All marketing pros agree–optimization delivers a superior ROI than advertising.
