Websites for Home Services Businesses That Book Jobs

The cost depends on three things: your number of services, your number of areas, and whether you need one page or a full site. A one-page site for a new business is a much smaller job than a multi-service site covering several regions. Our current prices for Google Ads, SEO and websites are on our pricing page.

You do. The domain is registered with your ABN as the registrant under auDA’s rules. The WordPress site comes with your own Administrator login, and the hosting account is in your name. Google Analytics and Search Console sit under your Google account. If you ever leave, you take a working site and all your data with you, and nothing stays in our accounts.

A full website typically takes four weeks from a confirmed brief with all content ready. Content is the usual cause of delay: photos, service descriptions and sign-off at the design stage. If your content is ready at the start, the build moves fast. If it is not, we agree a timeline with you on the consultation call, so you know when to expect launch.

Every build includes the technical groundwork Google needs: title tags, meta descriptions, schema markup, a fast load and a sitemap submitted through Search Console. Where you rank after launch depends on the competition for your trade in your area. In a busy market, most home service businesses add ongoing SEO or paid ads so the site gets seen while it builds authority.

Not always. Some sites need a fix, not a rebuild. We look at your current site on the consultation call and tell you which makes more sense. If we rebuild, every existing URL is mapped and redirected before launch. The Google rankings you have earned move across to the new pages.

Your logo, photos of your own jobs, a short description of each service and the suburbs you cover. We also need access to any Google accounts you already have. Real photos matter most, because they show a visitor the business is genuine. We write the page copy and handle the design, build, setup and testing.

Yes. After launch we offer an optional ongoing care service covering WordPress and plugin updates, security monitoring and backups. It keeps the site secure and up to date without you having to manage it. You can also look after the site yourself, since you have full Administrator access. Ask about ongoing care on your consultation call.

Yes. Google Ads sends people to a landing page, and that page decides whether they call. A slow or unclear page wastes the ad spend. If you plan to run pay-per-click advertising, build the website first or at the same time. New businesses can get the website, Google Business Profile and first ads set up together through our start-up packages.
