Who you are competing with
18,852 Employers Compete for El Paso County Customers
El Paso County has 18,852 employer businesses, and 16,290 of them (86%) have fewer than 20 employees. Those are the businesses local SEO is for: too small for an in-house marketing team, and dependent on being found by people nearby.
The two largest groups are professional services (2,662) and health care (2,405).
Professional services, including law firms, accountants and consultants, win high-value clients one search at a time, which is why their ad clicks are among the most expensive in any market.
Health care practices, from dentists to chiropractors and specialists, compete for patients who start with a search and then read reviews before they book.
