Portfolio Website for a Trades Business
A simple, well-built website is the highest-return marketing investment for a plumber, electrician, or other tradesperson. Five pages, real photos, and a click-to-call button outperform any ad campaign.

Build the Pages
Start with five pages: Home, Services, Photo Gallery, Google Reviews, and Contact. Keep copy short. Use headers that match what people search for: emergency plumber, water heater installation, drain cleaning.

Take Real Photos
Real jobsite photos outperform stock images every time. Before and after shots of completed work build trust instantly. Take photos on every job for 30 days to build a gallery.

Optimize for Local SEO
Add your Google Business Profile and keep it updated. Use your city and service in every page title. Add schema markup for LocalBusiness. Get listed on Yelp, Angi, and your local chamber of commerce.
