Pest Control Website Essentials: 10 Must-Have Features for Local SEO & More Leads
Imagine your website like a top tech on your crew. Shows up on time, explains things clearly, and helps bring in more jobs. That’s what a great pest control site should do: get you found on Google, make it easy to contact you, and turn visitors into booked appointments.
At Superjet Sites, we build fast, clean, affordable websites for service businesses across the U.S. and Canada—with optional monthly plans for ongoing maintenance and getting found on Google. See our website guide.
Why this matters right now
- Most people check businesses on their phones before calling. If your site is slow or clunky, they bounce. The research backs it up: phone use dominates how people go online today. Pew Research Center
- Showing up in local searches isn’t luck. Simple, consistent info about your business helps you rank better on Google. Google even spells out what helps. Improve your local ranking on Google
The 10 must-haves for a pest control website
Clear, click-to-call phone number at the top
- Make it big, make it obvious, and keep it on every page. Add “Call now” so no one has to hunt.
Fast-loading pages
- Speed = trust. If your site loads slow, people leave. Keep pages lean so customers can reach you in seconds.
Looks great on phones
- Buttons big enough to tap, text easy to read, forms simple. Most visitors are on mobile—meet them there.
Simple “Get a Quote” form
- Name, phone, address, pest problem, preferred time. That’s it. Every extra field scares people off.
Service area front and center
- List the cities and neighborhoods you serve. A small map helps. If you cover a big region, add pages for your top towns.
Proof you’re legit
- Show licenses, insurance, and memberships. Add your team photos, trucks, and uniforms. Real faces build trust fast.
Reviews where people can see them
- Place your best 3–5 reviews on the homepage and service pages. Include a link or note that more are on Google.
Clear services with plain-English explanations
- Termites, ants, roaches, bed bugs, rodent control—give each service a short description, what the visit includes, and how fast you can respond.
“Why choose us” that talks like a human
- Example bullets: “Same-day service,” “Family- and pet-conscious treatments,” “No hard sell,” “Honest pricing,” “Local techs who show up on time.”
Google-friendly basics
- Your business name, address, and phone should match everywhere (website, Google Business Profile, invoices). Add your hours, service area, and photos. This quiet consistency helps you show up higher when locals search.
Bonus features that win more jobs
- Live chat or text-back: Grab the night owls and the at-work crowd who can’t talk.
- Seasonal promos: “Spring ant tune-up” or “Rodent-proofing before winter.” Simple offers move the needle.
- Pest library: Short, helpful pages (“What are these tiny ants in my kitchen?”) that answer questions and build trust.
- Before-and-after photos: Show the proof, not just the promise.
Real-world example: The “3-click” rule
Picture a homeowner who just saw a trail of ants. They’re stressed, standing in the kitchen with their phone. In 3 clicks or less, they should be able to:
- See that you handle ants in their city.
- Read a quick price range or what’s included.
- Call or request a same-day visit.
If your site can do that in under 30 seconds, you win that lead.
Quick checklist you can do this week
- Put your phone number at the top of every page with a “Call now” button.
- Add a simple “Get a Quote” form to your homepage.
