Three rules for picking a primary category.
Specific beats generic.
"Orthodontist" ranks better for ortho queries than "Dentist". "HVAC contractor" beats "Home services". Pick the most specific category that accurately describes your primary service.
Match searcher intent.
If 70% of your leads are emergency repairs, your primary category should reflect that — even if it's not your highest-revenue service. Categories are a search signal, not a billing code.
Secondary categories = secondary services.
Add up to 9 additional categories covering your full service mix. Each adds visibility for specific queries but doesn't dilute primary ranking when chosen correctly.
