SEO Helps Your Funeral, Cremation, or Green Burial Services Be Found Online When Families Need Them the Most
More than ever, people are turning to the internet to find the service providers they need in every industry. And for funeral homes, helping families find your services in a timely manner is of paramount importance.
We know that referrals are usually the channel that helps the most with increasing business in the funeral industry. But as more and more people are turning to their computers and phones to check reviews on Google or ask ChatGPT for advice, your overall online presence is critical.
This is where our funeral marketing agency comes in to help. We want to help funeral homes and the like expand their online footprint effectively to ensure families are finding your business before your competitors.
“I own a small business but had no experience with SEO and never pursued online marketing. Sixth City made it easy to get started with online advertising. Since then, we have consistently gained new business through our website each month. This once skeptic is now a firm believer in the benefits of SEO thanks to John and his team.” – David Yost, Yost Insurance
What You Gain from Our Funeral Home SEO Services
Some of the key tactics we use in our SEO strategies for funeral homes include:
Evaluation of Service and Location Pages
Through Google Analytics, we can look at your pages and see how they are performing. We can determine what types of content bring the most traffic, what’s converting, and where improvements are needed. This is applied to both your dedicated service pages, and any location pages if you have more than one parlor. Our writing team will then make adjustments to elicit optimal results.
Optimizations to Improve Local Presence
We will make sure that business information is accurately showcased into your Google Business Profile, website, directory listings, and social media. We also make strategic adjustments to GBPs to help you show up when a family searches “funeral home near me” by updating photos, help you get reviews, custom services, and more.

Reporting and Tracking of Key Terms
In the SEO world, keywords are everything. In order to generate high-quality traffic that will convert, determining which keywords you want to rank for is a very important step. Once we’ve established what your terms and phrases are, we have software that will help track how well they are ranking and your progress over a span of time.
Writing Helpful Blog Content
Optimizing the content on your pages with keyword-rich copy and useful information for potential customers will not only help your search engine rankings, but it will also help customers to easily navigate your website to make sales and purchases. One of the easiest ways we do this is by creating content for your blog aiming at different users’ intents: informational, commercial, transactional, and navigational. For example, something we might write is “How You Can Save % Money by Choosing Cremation Over Burial.”
Technical Enhancements
From altering schema to metadata to image sizes and more, there are various things on the technical end of SEO that can enhance your website and help you appear more prominently in search results.
Adjustments to Key Page Layouts
To help you get more form submissions and phone calls, there are some design changes that we find can greatly influence users who come to your site and encourage them to contact you. Although such changes do not directly affect SEO, they help your business as a whole.
