What Goes Into Travis County's 90.1
Local Reseller Opportunity Index
90.1/ 100
Places 20 out of 1,822 counties past the 20,000-resident mark, and 16 of the 400 markets on this site. A higher score means more small employers, more buyers, more towns and more income to work with. Weights and method
LROI, the Local Reseller Opportunity Index, rates every county from 0 to 100 on how much an agency has to work with: a pool of small employers, a share in the home-service, legal, medical, real estate and auto categories, a count of towns, household income, business growth and category crowding. Travis County scores 90.1, which is among the strongest markets we scored.
Two traits stand out in Travis County: it is a county where builders are pulling permits at a fast clip, and it is a county where new employer locations have been opening quickly. Each bar below sets one measure against every county of 20,000 or more residents.
- Small employers (payroll under ten) for every 1,000 residents 4.9 Plentiful: 86th percentile
- Core buyer-category locations per 10,000 residents 42.7 Plentiful: 92nd percentile
- Named places above 2,500 residents 10 Long list of places: 93rd percentile
- Typical household income (2023 est.) $97,544 High side: 92nd percentile
- Employer-location change from 2017 to 2022 +16.5% Moving quicker than most: 94th percentile
- How packed the nine buyer categories are (average percentile) 68 Tightly packed: 84th percentile
- Permitted housing units in 2025, per 10,000 residents 108.4 Brisk permitting: 95th percentile
- Population change from 2020 +3.5% Faster than the field: 77th percentile
Each bar is a percentile: the share of the 1,822 counties above 20,000 residents that sit below Travis County on that measure.

Client types
Seven Client Types Ranked for Private Label SEO in Travis County
Not every business type is equally likely to want local SEO, and not every county has the same mix. This ranks the seven groups we track by how plentiful their small locations are in Travis County.
| Client type, in order | What the numbers say |
|---|---|
| 1. Real estate offices | 1,228 locations, 1,176 with fewer than 10 staff, at 3.7x the typical county's density. The count is up 59.9% since 2017. Neighborhood and town coverage is what these offices most often ask about. |
| 2. Law offices | 1,265 locations, 1,050 with fewer than 10 staff, at 3.3x the typical county's density. The count is steady at +7.4% since 2017. Firms often want a page per practice area for each city they serve. |
| 3. Dental and medical practices | 1,227 of the 1,727 locations here are under 10 staff, and density runs 1.9x the typical county. The count is up 9.3% since 2017. Practices usually want pages by procedure and by office location. |
| 4. Home services | Near the county norm (1.0x), with 1,226 locations and 949 of them small. The count is up 25.1% since 2017. Each trade splits into services that map directly onto separate pages. |
| 5. Insurance and accounting firms | A crowded field at 1.3x typical: 807 locations, 690 of them small. The count is steady at -0.6% since 2017. These offices sell on trust, so pages that answer local questions suit them. |
| 6. Landscaping and cleaning firms | Typical density (1.0x) across 615 locations, 439 of them under 10 staff. The count is up 20.1% since 2017. Their service lists turn directly into pages by service and by town. |
| 7. Auto repair shops | Sparse at 0.7x the typical county: 255 locations, 213 under 10 staff. The count is steady at -3% since 2017. Most shops serve a handful of towns, so the page plan stays short and easy to explain. |
Groups combine the Census categories listed on the methodology page; ranking weighs the count of locations under 10 staff and density against the median county. It is a prospecting order, not a forecast of who will buy. Ranking method
The top three client types add up to 3,453 locations with fewer than 10 staff in Travis County. Real estate offices lead because of density, not because anyone has proved they will buy, and an agency that already has a client among law offices may sensibly start there.
Prospect mix
The Standard Prospect List, Already Long in Travis County
Travis County is a market where the standard prospect list writes itself: 5,701 home-service, legal, medical, real estate and auto locations, 42.7 per 10,000 residents, a density that only 8% of counties exceed. For a reseller, more candidates in the right categories means fewer cold conversations about whether SEO is relevant.
Builders are active (108.4 permits per 10,000 residents in 2025). Employers are multiplying: 35,717 locations in 2017, 41,596 in 2022, up 16.5%. Where reseller SEO for Travis County web designers should start follows from that mix: the client types below put real estate offices and law offices first.
1,334,961 people live in Travis County, which is number 31 among 3,143 U.S. counties, and 41,596 employer locations there provide 697,945 jobs. 75.1% of those locations have fewer than 10 staff. The median household takes in $97,544.
None of this tells you how many owners in Travis County want SEO; it tells you how many exist, which is the part Census files can answer.
Fifteen categories
Travis County's 41,596 Employer Locations, Category by Category
Here are all fifteen categories for Travis County. The "under 10 staff" column is the pool an agency can most plausibly approach.

| 15 | Roofers | 136 | 109 | 1.0 (1.8x) | +44.7% |
Fifteen categories, biggest first. Each bracketed multiple compares Travis County's density per 10,000 residents with the median county, where anything below 1.0x is lighter than usual. Employer locations only, from County Business Patterns for 2017 and 2022. About these counts
Law offices (1,265) lead the count in Travis County, with real estate offices (1,228) and physician practices (1,087) behind. The most crowded categories, against the typical county, are real estate offices at 3.7x and law offices at 3.3x. Auto repair shops are comparatively few (0.7x typical), so each one that signs is competing with fewer neighbors. The fastest-growing category is real estate offices, up 59.9% since 2017 to 1,228 locations. Accounting firms moved the other way, down 2.9% since 2017.
Where residents live
Travis County Place by Place: Who Lives Where
Population by named place in Travis County, largest first. A local service client typically needs pages for the towns it serves, which makes this list the starting point for scoping.
| No. | Place | Residents (2023 est.) | Portion of the county |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Austin (part) | 911,336 | 68% |
| 2 | Pflugerville (part) | 65,119 | 5% |
| 3 | Manor | 20,209 | 2% |
| 4 | Lakeway | 19,189 | 1% |
| 5 | Leander (part) | 11,348 | 1% |
| 6 | Lago Vista | 10,009 | 1% |
Population figures are Census estimates, and cities, towns and census-designated places all qualify. For cities that straddle a boundary, this table lists the Travis County side alone.
One place dominates: Austin, with 68% of the county's 1,334,961 people, among 6 places above 10,000. A page plan here starts there and spreads outward. As a rough illustration, a client that sells six services in each of the 10 places above 2,500 residents would have 60 service-and-town combinations; the startup fee covers the design, development and optimization of up to about 1,000 landing pages per client.

The building pipeline
Permits in Travis County Peaked in 2021 and Have Eased Since
Figures are housing units authorized for construction. The yearly county permit files and a matching January to August comparison are Census Bureau products. Permits come before construction, and not all become houses.
Permits peaked at 29,052 units in 2021 and landed at 14,474 in 2025, 50% lower, which is still 108.4 per 10,000 residents. Through August 2026, 7,980 units were approved against 8,721 in the same months of 2025 (-8.5%).
Housing-linked categories here include real estate offices at 3.7x typical. Their sales cycle follows construction, which is a useful thing to bring up when pitching them.
The price schedule
What SEO Fulfillment for Travis County Agencies Costs at 2, 5, 10 and 20 Clients
Each client starts with a $1,250 campaign creation fee, and the $300 monthly fee begins only after the client has 100 or more keywords on page 1. Volume brings 10% off at 10 clients and 20% off at 20; the program asks for at least two. You get white-labeled monthly reports, an account manager of your own, and no contact between us and your client unless you request it.
| Roster size | Share of local small SEO buyers | Campaign creation total | Monthly total once billing begins |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 clients | 1 in 2,308 | $2,500 | $600 |
| 5 clients | 1 in 923 | $6,250 | $1,500 |

| 20 clients (20% off) | 1 in 231 | $20,000 | $4,800 |
Totals use $1,250 startup and $300 monthly per client, the latter billed only after 100 or more keywords reach page 1. Ten clients earn 10% off and twenty earn 20% off both fees, and two is the minimum. The share column divides your roster into this county's small buyer-category locations (home services, law, dental and medical, real estate, auto). Ask for terms
For scale: Travis County has 4,615 locations with fewer than 10 staff in the SEO-buying categories. Ten clients would be about one in every 462 of them, and twenty about one in 231.
