The site before the spend

An Astoria website has to explain the housing it works on

Lithium Marketing designs the website an Astoria service business needs to sell repair and remodel work. 76.1% of Astoria's homes were built before 1980, so the customer reading your site is often weighing a repair, a replacement or a remodel, and the project photos and service pages should speak to that.

The median Astoria home was built in 1948, which is why a gallery of new construction says less here than a page showing a repair on a house of that age. A Lithium site carries both: the finished work, the service behind it and a way to ask for an estimate from the phone in the customer's hand.

The Astoria market

Who owns the homes your site is selling to

Astoria counts 5,091 housing units. Owners live in 53.6% of Astoria's occupied homes, so the site should speak to a person who can approve the work: scope, cost, timing and who is in the house while the job runs.

Only 4.9% of the housing went up in 2010 or later, and the Clatsop County figure is 7.6%. New-build pages are not what this market needs. A site that leads with repair and remodel work, and with the estimate process for an occupied house, fits the housing this market has.

Websites by trade

A remodeler's site and a plumber's site ask different questions

Clatsop County counts 35 residential remodelers and 29 landscaping services, two trades that sell a project and need galleries, project-type pages and a form that asks for scope and timing. A remodeler's customer is weighing a floor plan and a budget; a landscaper's is weighing a design and a maintenance plan.

The repair side of the county asks for a different site. With 20 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors in the county, a plumber's home page leads with the phone number, the towns covered and the opening hours, with the gallery below. A painting contractor or a roofer still needs the project photos, placed under the call button.

The build

How an Astoria website gets made

You approve the pages before they go live, and the form, the phone links and the tracking get tested first.

1

Start with the housing

You send photos of the old-house work you want more of, and we pick the projects that answer the questions customers ask about an older home.

2

Write the service pages

Each service gets a page that explains the work, the range of jobs you take and what the customer should send for an estimate.

3

Build it on WordPress

You get a site on your own hosting and domain, tested on a phone at every step.

4

Check the call path

Phone links, forms and tracking get tested so you can see which pages bring calls and forms, and you get a walkthrough for editing pages yourself.

What every Lithium website includes

Proof

Robinson Restoration: a new website built with SEO

Robinson Restoration is the restoration company in the case card. Lithium built the website and ran the SEO, so the card's numbers belong to both. Dave Turin of Dozer Dave gives the quote that runs with it.

Website questions Astoria owners ask

Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].

How long does an Astoria website take?

Most builds run six to nine weeks from kickoff to launch. The photos, the copy and your approvals set the pace, and a larger site with many project pages takes longer. You get a schedule before the work starts, and the site goes live after the forms and phone links are tested.

What is included in a typical build?

A typical build costs $5,000 and covers the design, the copy, the service and town pages, the estimate form and the tracking. Larger sites get a fixed proposal after a discovery call, so the price follows the page count and not a package.

Do I keep the site if I stop working with Lithium?

You do. The domain, the hosting, the WordPress install and the content are yours, and the site stays where it is. That is why the build runs on WordPress, on hosting you control.

Should every town we serve get its own page?

Only where the town has its own searches and its own housing to talk about. A page that swaps the city name into the same paragraph gives a customer no reason to read it, so we write the towns you work in and leave the rest to one service-area page.

How do you handle photos of a customer's house?

We use photos the customer has agreed to share, and we crop out house numbers and anything that identifies the property unless you have permission. If a photo is not cleared, the page can still show the work with a written description and no image.
