Built for the phone
What a Gainesville website has to prove
The median home in Gainesville was built in 1983, so the pages that win work here show repairs, upgrades and replacements on houses of that age, not a stock photo of a new build. Lithium Marketing designs and builds WordPress sites for service businesses in Gainesville, and every page is arranged so a visitor on a phone can see the work and call.
Only 9.3% of Gainesville homes went up in 2010 or later, so the houses a customer is comparing contractors for are mostly older, and a gallery sorted by service says more than a page of promises. The site carries the owner’s name because it belongs to the owner: domain, hosting, WordPress install and content.
What the search shows
Who lands on the site after a search
“Web design gainesville” records 390 searches a month. If a searcher is comparing builders, the site is what they judge first, so a page that loads fast and shows real projects answers the comparison.
Nextdoor and Yelp both sat in the top ten for “plumber gainesville” when we checked, so a directory listing is part of the first impression. Those listings carry the phone number and the services; your own pages are where the finished bathroom and the panel upgrade sit.

The local housing
Older homes, and what the site should lead with
In Alachua County, 34.5% of homes went up before 1980 and 13.3% since 2010, so a contractor’s pages need both ends: the repair and replacement work on older houses, and the remodel work on newer ones.
Gainesville has 59,816 occupied housing units, and 37.7% of them are owner-occupied, so landlords and property managers are part of the market a contractor serves. A page for rental and property-manager work gives those callers a place to land.

Trades and their first screen
Repair trades and project trades need different pages
Some trades sell a project, not a call. Alachua County lists 78 residential remodelers and 76 new home builders, and those pages should show a finished kitchen before they ask for a call, with the work sorted by job and priced on request.
A plumber or an electrician sells the opposite: a call today. Alachua County has 81 contractors who handle plumbing, heating and air conditioning, plus 53 electrical contractors, and the ones a customer reaches first put the phone number at the top of every page.

The build
From kickoff to launch in Gainesville
Pages and photos get your approval, and no launch happens until every form and phone link works.
1
Send the work you are proud of
Job photos, the service list and the parts of the county you cover. If the photos are thin, we tell you which shots to collect on the next few jobs.
2
Review two layouts
One phone layout and one desktop layout, each with the call button and the form where a customer looks first, and you pick the one that feels like your business.
3
Build it on WordPress
Pages, forms, schema and tracking go in, and every phone link gets tested on a real handset.
4
Point the old URLs, then go live
Every old URL that had traffic gets pointed at its replacement, then the site goes live and you get a recorded walkthrough of the edit screens.
What every Lithium website includes
The same eight parts go into every website build, wherever the business is.
- Sub-2.5-second mobile load
- Mobile-first conversion path
- A clear first screen
- SEO-ready architecture
- Google Business Profile alignment
- Real proof where it converts
- Tracking tied to revenue
- Accessible and AI-search ready
Proof
Robinson Restoration: a rebuilt site and search work
Robinson Restoration, a restoration company, hired Lithium to rebuild its website and run its SEO. The card below shows the organic growth from that search work, and Kevin Atiyeh of Atiyeh Bros, a carpet and rug business, gives the quote beside it.
Restoration“Lithium Marketing has done a good job with understanding our Company and what we specialize in and applying that to our digital marketing.”

Pages for the towns your crews reach
Before you add a town page, look at how three were built elsewhere. Jacksonville, Palm Coast and Orlando each have a web design page here, with the housing and search figures that shaped it, and the state page covers the rest of Florida.
Published price
The price of a Gainesville website build
$5,000
typical project
Larger sites get a fixed proposal after a 30-minute discovery call. Six to nine weeks from kickoff to launch. You own the domain, hosting account, WordPress install and content.
How long does a build take?
Six to nine weeks from kickoff to launch on a typical service business site. The bigger variable is photo and copy approval, so late approvals are what move the launch date.
Who owns the domain and the hosting?
You own them. The domain, the hosting account, the WordPress install and every page and photo are registered in your name, and another team could take over without rebuilding anything.
Will the new site keep our existing links?
The old addresses that had traffic or links get redirected one by one, and the indexing is checked after launch. A redirect map is the difference between carrying authority across and starting again.
Can we edit it ourselves after launch?
It runs on WordPress, so text, photos and new jobs can change without code. The recorded walkthrough covers the screens you will use, and the optional $99 a month plan adds hosting, daily backups, software and security updates, and basic website changes.
What should we have ready before kickoff?
The photo library you already have, the services you sell, the towns you cover and an hour on the calendar for kickoff. We draft the words and send them over for edits, so your part is approval, not writing.
