The pitch list
First Calls for Reseller SEO for York County, ME Web Designers: The Client Types to Try
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 York County, ME.
| Client type, in order | The county in numbers |
|---|---|
| 1. Home services | 385 of the 416 locations here are under 10 staff, and density runs 2.1x the typical county. The count is up 18.2% since 2017. Service-area businesses like these usually want to be found in every town their trucks reach. |
| 2. Landscaping and cleaning firms | 230 of the 249 locations here are under 10 staff, and density runs 2.4x the typical county. The count is up 18.6% since 2017. Recurring services are easy to describe and easy to price at retail. |
| 3. Real estate offices | 119 locations, 118 with fewer than 10 staff, at 2.2x the typical county's density. The count is up 25.3% since 2017. Neighborhood and town coverage is what these offices most often ask about. |
| 4. Auto repair shops | 91 locations, 89 with fewer than 10 staff, at 1.6x the typical county's density. The count has fallen 15.7% since 2017. Repair services (brakes, tires, inspections) become distinct pages. |
| 5. Law offices | 82 locations, 72 with fewer than 10 staff, at 1.3x the typical county's density. The count is steady at -3.5% since 2017. Practice areas and cities translate into pages one for one. |
| 6. Dental and medical practices | 129 locations (88 under 10 staff), about typical for density at 0.9x. The count has fallen 12.2% since 2017. Practices usually want pages by procedure and by office location. |
| 7. Insurance and accounting firms | Near the county norm (0.8x), with 80 locations and 69 of them small. The count is steady at -3.6% since 2017. These offices sell on trust, so pages that answer local questions suit them. |
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. Method
Put differently, 733 small locations sit in the three best-ranked groups. The order is built from counts and density, so it favors where prospects are plentiful; your own contacts and references should override it whenever they point somewhere else.

The most crowded categories, against the typical county, are landscapers at 2.5x and home remodelers at 2.4x.

New construction
York County, ME Builds Less Than It Did in 2021
Each bar is the count of housing units cleared for construction that year. 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 1,606 units in 2021 and landed at 1,359 in 2025, 15% lower, which is still 62.2 per 10,000 residents. January to August shows 883 units in 2026 and 957 in 2025, a -7.7% change.
For a reseller, the relevant groups are the housing-linked ones: home remodelers (2.4x typical density) and electricians (2.4x typical density). A contractor whose work depends on new households has a direct reason to care whether customers can find the business.
