You're great at what you do. But Google doesn't know that yet.

Most owner-operators rely on word-of-mouth, paid directories, and hoping the phone rings. Meanwhile, customers are searching Google every single day for exactly what you do, and finding your competitors instead.

It's not because they're better. It's because they have a website that shows up. The bar isn't high. But you have to be in the game to win.

And now there's a new channel: AI search. When someone asks ChatGPT "who's a good dentist in Bristol?" or "best plumber in Leeds?", it pulls from websites structured the right way. Most local business sites aren't. Yours will be.

Who it's for

Owner-operators in three worlds (and counting).

If your customers are local and trust matters more than scale, we're probably right for you. Drop us a line if you're not sure.

Trade-specific pages: websites for electricians, websites for plumbers, websites for builders, roofers, joiners and websites for landscapers. Local to us? Web design in Basingstoke.

What you get

A website that actually wins you work.

Not a template with your name dropped in. A proper, custom-built site engineered to rank in your area for your services.

📍

Built for your area

Dedicated pages for every town and suburb you serve. When someone in Oxford searches for what you do, your Oxford page shows up, not a generic "we cover Oxfordshire" line buried in your footer.

🔍

SEO from day one

Every page is keyword-targeted with proper meta tags, schema markup, internal linking, and content structured for search engines. No retrofitting. No plugins. Built right from the start.

🤖

AI search ready

Your site is structured so ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity can read it, understand it, and recommend you. Most local business websites block these AI systems. Yours welcomes them.

📱

Mobile-first with click-to-call

Over 70% of local searches happen on phones. Your site loads fast, looks sharp on any device, and has your phone number front and centre so customers can call with one tap.

📝

Lead capture that actually works

Every page has a clear path to contact you. Forms have a proper "what happens next" journey, confirmation page, instant auto-reply, so customers know they're in good hands the moment they hit submit.

📊

Monthly reporting

On Professional and Growth plans, a clear monthly report showing how many people found your site, which pages are performing, and what we're doing to push things forward.

Optional add-on

Get found on Google Maps, too.

Your website gets you found in search and AI answers. A Google Business Profile gets you into the map pack and the reviews box: the part that shows up first when someone searches for your trade nearby. We set the whole thing up so it actually works.

📍

Claimed and verified

We claim and verify your profile from scratch, or untangle one that's already a mess. Set up as a service-area business if you work from home, so your address stays private.

🏷️

The right categories

Primary and secondary categories chosen properly, so Google knows exactly what you do and who to show you to. Most profiles get this wrong and quietly lose the map pack.

📋

Services and areas filled in

Every service you offer and every area you cover, written up for you, not left half-blank. The more Google knows, the more searches you can show up for.

📷

Photos done right

Your work, your van, your team, laid out the way Google rewards with more views. Profiles with proper photos get a lot more calls than ones without.

🗂️

Listed everywhere that counts

Your name, address and number matched across 10+ trusted directories, so Google trusts your business is real and ranks it higher.

Reviews made easy

A simple, ready-to-send way to ask happy customers for reviews: the stars next to your name that win the next job before they've even called.

Add it to any plan

Already included on the Growth plan. Add it to Starter or Professional whenever you like.

How it works

From zero to live in under a week.

No jargon. No faff. Three simple steps and your website is out there working for you.

02

We build your site

We write and build every page, homepage, service pages, area pages, blog posts, contact page, all optimised and ready to go. You review it, we make any tweaks, done.

03

Go live and get found

We launch your site, submit it to Google, and start the ongoing work of publishing content and building visibility. You start appearing in results. The phone starts ringing.

Free tools

See where you actually stand.

Two free tools that show you what customers and AI search engines find when they look for your business. No signup, no pitch.

Great reviews, no website: the jobs you're quietly losing.

You can be the best-rated tradesperson in town and still lose work to someone with fewer stars and a better website. Why reviews and a website do two different jobs, what happens in the eight seconds before someone calls, and the maths most people never run.

What a tradesperson's website actually needs to do.

The story of building a 38-page production site for Etonic Landscapes, a Hampshire hard-landscaping studio. What we built, why each decision matters, and what most agencies miss when they build for trades.

Read the build story

Why one page isn't enough for your trade.

A single homepage can't rank for every job you do or every town you cover. Why service pages and area pages win the work a one-pager never will, and the structure that actually gets you found in Google and AI search.

DIY website vs done-for-you: an honest look.

Building your own website feels free. Here's the real cost of DIY for a busy tradesperson, where it genuinely works, and the day it quietly becomes the expensive option instead of the cheap one.

Common questions

Straight answers.

Yes. If your current site isn't bringing you work, we'll build you a new one from scratch and redirect your existing domain to it. You keep the same web address, your customers won't notice a thing, but Google will see a dramatically improved site.

No. You fill in a 10-minute intake form about your business, the services you offer, areas you cover, and a bit about yourself. We write everything: page content, blog posts, meta descriptions, the lot. You just review it and say "looks good" or "change this bit."

Your site will be live within a week. Google typically starts indexing new sites within days. Most clients see their first enquiries from the website within 4–8 weeks. Rankings and traffic build steadily over 3–6 months as we publish ongoing content.

When someone asks ChatGPT, Google Gemini, or Perplexity "who's a good electrician in Southampton?" or "best B&B in the Cotswolds?", those AI tools search the web and recommend businesses based on what they find. If your website is structured the right way, you get recommended. Most local business sites aren't set up for this. Yours will be from day one. More on this in the blog.

You can cancel the monthly plan any time after the 3-month minimum, with 30 days' notice. The website you've paid for is yours, we'll hand over all the files. We don't lock you in. We keep clients by delivering results, not by holding their site hostage.

Directories are fine for some leads, but you're sharing every lead with several other businesses and paying a monthly fee or per-lead cost for the privilege. Your own website brings you direct enquiries from people who've already decided they want to contact you. It also builds an asset you own, a directory profile disappears if you stop paying.

Not at all. You fill in one form, we do everything else. You don't need to log into anything, learn any software, or update anything yourself. If you want a change, you tell us and we do it. That's the whole point of done-for-you.

Get in touch. The model works for most owner-operator businesses where customers are local and trust matters more than scale. If we're a good fit, we'll tell you. If we're not, we'll point you somewhere better.
