How to Improve Your RV Park Website's Google Rankings
If your park is stuck on page two or three, you don't need a new strategy — you need to execute the fundamentals better than the parks outranking you.
Quick wins (this week)
- Rewrite title tags on your top 10 pages. Put the primary keyword first, add a specific benefit. This alone can lift click-through rates 20–30%.
- Complete your Google Business Profile. Every empty field is a ranking you're leaving behind.
- Compress your images. Run them through a WebP converter. Page speed is a ranking factor and most park sites are image-heavy.
- Add your address and phone to the footer of every page in plain text (not just an image).
Content improvements (this month)
- Find your striking-distance keywords in Search Console — queries where you rank positions 8–20 with real impressions. Improve those specific pages: more detail, better headings, clearer answers.
- Add FAQ sections answering the questions your office gets by phone. FAQ content captures featured snippets and AI citations.
- Publish one local guide. "Things to do near [your park]" targets destination researchers and earns natural links.
Technical fixes (this quarter)
- Ensure every page has one H1, unique titles, and meta descriptions.
- Fix broken links and redirect chains.
- Add LocalBusiness/Campground schema markup.
- Submit your XML sitemap to Search Console and monitor the coverage report.
- Make sure your site works flawlessly on mobile — test it yourself on your phone.
Common mistakes that hurt rankings →
What NOT to do
- Don't buy backlinks. Google penalizes link schemes, and one penalty can erase years of work.
- Don't keyword-stuff. Write for humans first.
- Don't chase every algorithm update. The fundamentals — good content, fast site, real reviews — survive every update.
