Web design for Gulfport service businesses

A Gulfport website that shows the work and puts the call one tap away.

Lithium builds Gulfport websites that put your finished job photos first, give older-home repair work its own pages and keep calling one tap away.

The site your customer meets first

What a Gulfport phone visitor needs to see first

Lithium Marketing designs and builds WordPress websites for Gulfport service businesses, and the first job is to look like the right choice on a phone. 43.5% of Gulfport’s homes went up before 1980, so photos of repair and upgrade work on older houses belong near the top, with a call button a thumb can reach.

The median Gulfport home dates to 1986, and only 11.4% of the city’s homes went up in 2010 or later. If your work is on older houses, the site needs a page for it with your own before-and-after shots.

The homes behind the work

Owners, tenants and what the page has to answer

Owners live in 55.1% of Gulfport’s occupied homes, so the city has renters as well as owners. A line on the contact page saying you work with tenants saves a call, and the site should speak to both.

The median value of a Gulfport home is $174,600. Finished-job photos above the quote form put the proof in front of the buyer before the form.

Project work and repair work

Project work and repair work need different pages

Harrison County’s 30 new home builders and 22 residential remodelers sell project work. For them, a gallery for each project type and a quote form that asks about scope in the first field do more than a paragraph about the company.

A repair trade works differently. The county’s 10 pest control companies and 9 painting contractors sell a visit or a room, so their first screen should carry the phone number, the service area and the hours, with photos below the call button.

The build

The work between kickoff and launch

Reviews happen on a real phone as well as a desktop, and the launch waits until every form and call button has been clicked through.

1

Send the jobs you want more of

You send photos of finished work, the services you sell and the cities you cover. The words on the page get written from those plus one call with you.

2

Approve it on a phone, then a screen

The mobile layout comes to you first, then the desktop, and you mark where the call button and the quote form should sit.

3

Build it, then test every link

WordPress is the platform, and nothing ships untested: every form and phone link is clicked through, and GA4 plus call tracking tag each call with where it came from.

4

Redirect, launch and walk you through it

Redirects go in for the old URLs, the new site goes live, and a private Loom recording walks your team through swapping photos and editing text.

What every Lithium website includes

The same eight parts go into every website build, wherever the business is.

One case, three services

One glass company, three pieces of Lithium work

The website, the SEO and the Google Ads account all came from Lithium, and the card’s figures belong to that full body of work. The client is Dixie Glass, a glass company on the Mississippi Gulf Coast since 1946. Drake Snodgrass of Drake’s 7 Dees, a garden center and landscaping business, is quoted alongside.

Sites for the rest of the coast

One site can carry a page for each nearby city

One website can carry a page for each nearby city. The links below show the housing and search numbers behind each one, which is the quickest way to decide where to build next; the Mississippi state page covers the rest of the state.

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.

FAQ

Questions to settle before a new site goes up

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What makes a Gulfport build cost more than the typical price?

Page count, mostly. A shop that wants a page for every service, every city it works in and a gallery of finished jobs is asking for far more than a standard build covers, so the extra pages and copy get priced in a fixed proposal before anyone starts.

Who holds the domain and the hosting account?

You do, in your own name. The domain, the hosting account, the WordPress install and every page and photo sit in accounts you control, so the site stays with you whatever happens later.

Can we add pages later without a new build?

Yes. The site is built on WordPress with reusable sections, so a new service page or a new city page can be added without touching the rest of the site.

Do you write the copy, or do we?

We write it, from a call with you and the photos you send. You review every page before it goes live, and the words are yours to change afterwards.

What does the optional $99 a month plan cover?

It covers hosting, daily backups, software and security updates, and basic website changes. It is optional, it is separate from the build, and most clients take it so the site stays updated.
