People often ask us how to get the most out of Houzz.

The answer is simple.

Use Houzz efficiently and increase your organic impressions on Houzz.

Doing this will help your company generate more impressions and ultimately will generate leads and even sales for your company.

But wait, it is not that simple.

What we have found is that most companies do not understand what they need to do to be success in using Houzz for marketing. Sure, they have a profile. But their profile is most likely “weak” and does not generate many impressions for the company either with their images or their profile.

Getting the most out of Houzz involves taking advantage of many different things on Houzz and elsewhere such as your website. We will discuss several different topics that companies should focus on in order to more successfully use Houzz for marketing.

Profile

When it comes to your Houzz profile it is important to create a strong profile. A strong profile is one that is complete and has been optimized for local searches. Local searches are searches that people do for contractors.

Another, often overlooked, aspect that you should be addressing is reviews. You should be getting past clients to write reviews for your company on Houzz. Recent clients are the most valuable and will help your profile in many ways. This is also how you can win the Best of Houzz – Service award. You simply need to get more than 3 recent client reviews in a year.
