Social Media Integration

Absolutely a requirement if you plan on surviving the next 3 years on the Internet.  With a website platform like WordPress, social media integration is super simple with free plugins.

Immediate Call To Action

You need to give your visitors an immediate mechanism for them to take action, preferably in multiple locations on each page.

• Phone number at the top and bottom of every page.
• Quick Form on your homepage.
• Quick Form on ALL of your service pages.

This is how you optimize a website to squeeze out every possible action you can from your visitors.  If you can just get them into your marketing funnel you will close more contracts.

500-1000 Words Of Targeted Content

You are an expert in your field so providing your designer with a paragraph or two about every service shouldn’t be too hard.  You don’t need to write a masterpiece either.

• Add a picture to the top, it set’s the tone and keeps the visitors eye!
• Explain the service, the process (if any) and any special precautions.
• Explain everything that is included in the service. (removal/installation/cleanup/followup, etc…)
• Explain your warranty/guarantee for this particular service
• Bulleted Lists are PERFECT for setting up content

Testimonials From Happy Clients

These should be neatly organized on every page of your website.  We install and setup a custom “Testimonials Manager” for our web design clients that neatly organizes and inserts random testimonials into every page of your website.  Just like the example above.

Testimonials on every page help reinforce your visitors decision to choose you and it makes it easy for them to read them!  If they have to click to find your testimonials, they might not ever!  So serve them up right next to the service you offer.

Affiliates And Organizations You Belong To

This is not only important for boosting the online credibility of your company but can also help your search engine ranking.

• Add your BBB or Chamber of Commerce Badge to every page of your website.
• Add any professional organizations or affiliations you might belong to.
• JOIN some of these organizations if you haven’t already.

This also helps your SEO because when you join these organizations you usually get a profile on their website.  These profiles include info about your company and a website link.  These links back to your website from trusted organizations are very important for your ranking.

Gallery With Relevant Pictures

Probably one of the most important parts of your website if you have a visual type business such as remodeling, painting, siding, etc… Not so much if you’re a plumber!  It’s important that you organize your gallery into separate folders so that you can serve up photos relevant to what your visitor wants to see…

If they come to your kitchen remodeling page, they want to see pictures of kitchens you’ve remodeled.  Same for any other service you offer, show them photos related to the service.

Hire The Professionals To Do This All For You

 
This is a question we run into often and almost with every single client.  Some people seem to think that by cutting out pages and going with the minimum they are saving money others want to have too many useless pages that serve no purpose.
 
Where do you fit in the mix…?
 
Many small business owners actually underestimate the amount of pages their website should have.  We’ll explain a few “must have” pages that you’ll want to have on your website and WHY they are so important.
 
#1.  Your Homepage (1 page)
 
You’ve got to have a nice looking and inviting home page.  Obviously no website would be a website without one, but many designers still make the mistake of having some lame type of entry way page or “click here to load flash” you don’t want to deal with somebody who makes you a website like that.  They scare away your customers.
 
#2.  Your About Us Page (1 page)
 
This page simply tells the visitors a little bit about your company, your history and your core values.  It might not seem important to you but it helps develop your credibility in the eyes of a web visitor and helps them in the decision making process.
 
#3.  Your Services Page(s) (usually 5-20 pages)
 
If you want a great local search foot print you need to have a page on your website created for every single one of the services you offer clients.  This does require a bit of work writing content and collecting pictures but it’s how you cast a wide net in your local market and literally destroy your competitors who neglected to do this… You know, the guys who listed all their services on one single page?!
 
For some businesses this could be only a few services or you could offer dozens of different services.  If you don’t plan on adding too many pages at once at least make sure the software or engine driving your website will be easy to add pages to later.
 
#4.  Your Warranty/Guarantee Page (1 page)
 
What can your customers expect from you in way of warranty or satisfaction guarantee?   It’s important we have an easily accessible page where they can access your warranty information.  This is another part of the puzzle in developing our online trust and credibility.  Customers need to perceive you as legitimate authority or expert in your service.
 
#5.  Your Client Testimonials (1 page)
 
With so many places for customers to leave online reviews of your services the old fashioned Testimonials page would seemingly be redundant but it still serves a purpose and if you have several glowing endorsements from your clients then it’s a must have page of your website.
 
#6.  Estimate Request/Consultation/Contact Us Page (1 page)
 
You’ve got to have an easy way for your customers to contact you and we can accomplish this through the creation of this page.  Make sure you collect detailed information from your visitors in your contact form so you get top quality leads for your niche.
 
#7.  Service Location Pages (5 – 10 pages)
 
Some designers overdo this and will spam the search engines with multiple links to city specific pages of the website.  If done delicately and with attention to detail you can easily add 5-10 of these pages to your website without any ill effect from search engines.  When a user searches your services with a geographic search there is good chance they will find your service area page.
 
That’s about it for the most important pages.  It’s critical that you cover EACH and EVERY one of the services you want to gather new leads and customers for.  This usually takes most small business owners websites into the 15-25 page range and if the work scares you, don’t let it…!  We can create this all for you, and you can rest assured your competitors will have to scramble to keep up!

John, the owner of JTWood Construction came to us after finally throwing in the towel with trying to build his own website for his new company JT Wood Construction.  We revamped the JTWood logo for him and then went about creating a professional looking WordPress Website for John and his new business.  The end result is what you see below.

JT Wood Construction was ranked in Google within just a few days of launching the website and John received his first “web lead” that very week! 

After the first month, John sent us this Testimonial.

 ”Recently I started a business in the construction/renovation industry, Everyone knows that in this day and age, a good website is a must.  It must be easy to navigate, rank well on the search engines, and have good visual appeal to potential clients. A good website is a vital tool for success.
 
 After looking through the “sites4contractors” website, as well as some email and telephone correspondence, I decided I would hire Carl and his team for my web design needs. Through my various conversations it was obvious to me that I was choosing a very knowledgeable and detailed company. I considered building my own website with a free wordpress template, and I’m glad I decided against it.
There is more to a good website than a few nice pics, and a couple paragraphs describing your services. You need your name to come up when someone is searching for a service provider. You need a professional.

 The actual process was virtually painless, I sent Carl some pics, I wrote a description of my services and described to him how I wanted the site to function. The rest is history, my website is great.

 It’s been almost a month now since the website launched, I am on the first page for many of my  targeted areas. I have received numerous calls and inquiries.  In the first month alone I have signed 2 contracts worth over $10,000.  Plus I have a couple projects pending.  This is all directly tied to my website.  A pretty website is nice, but pointless if it doesn’t make money. I feel that I have received an immense return on my investment.  I recommend “Sites4Contractors.Com” completely you won’t be disappointed”
