Affordable Pest Control Services · Midland, Texas · October 2025 to present
Affordable Pest Control Services is a family-owned, licensed, and certified pest control company in Midland, Texas, serving residential and commercial clients across West Texas. With nearly 30 years of operation, they are one of the most established providers in the region, with a team of four certified technicians handling everything from oil-company locations to commercial facilities.
By every measure of operational performance, Affordable Pest Control was a strong, credible business. By every measure of digital presence, they were nearly invisible, and where they were visible, they were being misrepresented.
They had worked with another company for roughly 20 years that built and managed their website and ran paid ads, with no transparency into what the spend was generating. The site had not been meaningfully updated since the early era of internet marketing.
The visual identity, logo, color scheme, and tone were so misaligned with the professional, certified, safety-conscious nature of the business that commercial clients were not taking them seriously. A business with 30 years of credentials was losing credibility before a prospect read a single word.
Every pillar of the DBMS Method was compromised at engagement: 15 broken links, pages blocked from indexing, no structured keyword strategy, no lead generation system, and no attribution on the paid ad spend.
A comprehensive audit: full SEO site audit, Google Business Profile review, competitive analysis against Fox Pest Control, Orkin, and Hurford's, and a social audit. Local keyword research for Midland and West Texas identified the exact terms customers use, which became the foundation of every deliverable.
A fully new visual identity: new colors, new logo, and a complete brand guideline document that reflects who the business actually is, a professional, certified, credible local company with nearly three decades of experience.
The WordPress site was replaced with a new build featuring SEO architecture from the ground up: keyword-aligned titles, proper H1 structure, optimized metas, internal linking, and service pages built to rank. All 15 broken links, the scorpion-removal 404, and the indexing block were resolved, and the site was built to convert.
Ongoing local keyword targeting, Search Console monitoring, GBP optimization and posting, citation consistency, and rank tracking, focused for the first 90 days on moving core local keywords into top positions.
A Facebook page established, optimized, and activated with authentic behind-the-scenes service content, pest education, and local trust-building. Engagement quickly exceeded benchmarks.
Monthly posts targeting high-value local keywords and answering the questions Midland customers search. As of March 2026, the blog ranks third overall for monthly traffic on the site.
