About the Client

Who Is

Mr Emergency

Mr Emergency is a national provider of urgent plumbing, electrical, and air conditioning services operating across major cities and regional areas throughout Australia. Their whole business runs on being available when something goes wrong, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The brand was already well known through advertising and vehicle signage. But their digital setup had not kept up. As more customers go straight to Google the moment something breaks, Mr Emergency needed a website and a paid strategy that could actually convert that urgency into bookings.

The Problem

What Was Holding Them Back?

Emergency trades is one of the most competitive spaces in local search. When someone's toilet is overflowing at 11pm they are not browsing options, they are clicking the first result that looks trustworthy and has a phone number front and centre. Mr Emergency was not showing up for those searches and when they did, the website was not built to convert.

The site was slow, lacked location specific pages, and had no clear structure for the range of services and cities they covered. There was no paid advertising funnel despite huge potential for urgency driven Google Ads. Without both SEO and PPC working together, they were leaving a significant volume of ready to book customers to competitors every single day.

Our Approach

A Structured 3-Phase Plan Built to Win

We do not try to do everything at once. Each phase builds on the last so the results compound over time.

1

Website Design and Build

Weeks 1 to 3: Built a fast, mobile first website designed to convert visitors who are already in emergency mode and need to act quickly.

  • Multi-service modular website built from scratch
  • Dedicated landing pages for plumbing, electrical, and air conditioning
  • Mobile first design with minimal load time
  • Clear CTAs and click to call on every page
  • Trust signals and urgency driven UX throughout
  • Technical SEO foundations built into the structure

2

SEO and Local Visibility

Weeks 3 to 6: Restructured the entire site around the location and trade specific keywords customers actually use when something goes wrong.

  • Full SEO audit and site restructure
  • Location pages built for every major city and service
  • Metadata, headings, and internal linking optimised
  • Local schema markup across all service areas
  • On-page content aligned to emergency search intent
  • Mobile page speed improvements across all pages

3

PPC Campaign and Lead Tracking

Weeks 6 to 8: Launched targeted Google Ads campaigns built around urgency keywords and connected everything to real time lead tracking.

  • Google Ads campaign built across all trade categories
  • Urgency based ad copy for each service type
  • Tight geographic targeting per city and suburb
  • Custom landing pages matched to each ad group
  • Call tracking and form conversion setup
  • Analytics dashboard for real time reporting

The Outcome

Results That Speak for Themselves

Mr Emergency now has a digital platform built to perform under pressure. The website loads fast, ranks for emergency searches across multiple cities, and guides visitors straight to a phone call or booking form. Paid ads deliver ready to book leads from day one and the whole system feeds real data back so decisions can be made quickly.
