You’ve put years into becoming a better designer. But a potential client searching online may never see your work—or understand why you’re the right person for their project.

That’s a business problem worth working on. And you don’t need to become a full-time marketer to start making progress.

At AIBD, we’ve created a set of resources to help residential designers make their businesses easier to find, their services easier to understand, and their websites more useful to prospective clients. Choose the starting point that fits how you work.

Want to understand what matters? Start with the free guide.

Our updated SEO for Residential Designers guide explains how to connect your online presence with the work you actually want. It covers local searches, project portfolios, service pages, stock house plans, and ways to measure whether your efforts are working.

Use it to answer a specific question or work through it from the beginning. It’s available to everyone.

A long guide is useful. Finding time to act on it can be harder.

Our 20-Day SEO Course for Residential Designers gives you one brief lesson and one practical action each weekday for four weeks.

You’ll also get our free SEO Checklist to track what you’ve completed and what still needs attention. No AIBD membership is required.

The free guide and course are yours to use, and they offer a sample of the practical support we’re building through Designer Docs.

The right clients need a way to find you—and understand what you can bring to their project. Clear, useful information about your work helps homeowners make informed decisions and helps fellow designers recognize when you’re a good fit for a referral. That’s what these resources are built to support: stronger individual practices and a professional community that helps one another succeed.

We built these resources to help you take those steps.
