Web design in Lewiston

A Lewiston website built around the work you sell

Lithium Marketing designs and builds WordPress websites for Lewiston trade businesses so a visitor sees the work, gets an answer and calls. The build starts with the jobs you sell, the photos you have and the questions a customer asks before they pick up the phone, and each page ends with the phone number and the quote form.

79.8% of Lewiston's homes were built before 1980, and Lewiston's median home dates to 1957. In a city where most homes went up before 1980, the page plan starts with repair and replacement, not a new-build gallery, and each page should say which of those jobs your team takes.

The Lewiston market

Old houses, few new ones, and the photos that matter

Lewiston has 17,105 housing units, and only 4.2% of Lewiston's homes went up in 2010 or later. Most of the city's housing is already standing, so the photos that sell a trade here are before-and-after shots of repairs, replacements and finishes, not a new-build gallery.

Lewiston has 38,866 residents, and Lewiston's median home value is $235,100. Androscoggin County's median home dates to 1969, so the towns around Lewiston have the same older housing. The photos should show the prep, the cleanup and the finish, with a line of copy beside each one.

Trades in Androscoggin County

Remodelers, builders and the painters beside them

Androscoggin County has 62 residential remodelers, 23 new home builders and 16 painting contractors. A remodeler needs galleries and a project form that asks for scope, a painter needs rooms and finishes, and a builder needs a page for the kind of house they build. The site should look like the trade, not like a template.

Androscoggin County has 47 landscaping services, and an outdoor contractor's photos have to survive a phone screen in bright light. We size the images for the phone, keep the pages fast and put the quote form where a customer standing in a yard can use it.

The build

What the Lewiston website project covers

The page plan comes from your jobs, and nothing goes live until the forms and phone links work.

1

Pick the pages from your jobs

We list the work you want more of, then decide which service and project pages the site needs.

2

Write the copy from a call

A kickoff conversation gives us the services, the areas and the questions customers ask, and we draft the text.

3

Lay out the mobile version first

You review the phone layout before the desktop one, with the number and the quote form in reach.

4

Test, launch and record a walkthrough

Forms and phone links get checked, old links get mapped, and a private Loom shows your team how to edit.

Dixie Glass is a glass company on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Lithium built its new website and also ran its SEO and Google Ads, and the card reflects all three. Nathan Boos of Hillsview Building gives his own recommendation of the team's website and SEO work.

FAQ

Questions before a Lewiston website rebuild

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What makes a Lewiston website bigger than the typical build?

Two things: the number of pages and the writing behind them. A one-service shop in one town can launch with a short site. A company that wants a page for each service and each town it covers needs the writing to match, and that quote is fixed before the first page is built.

Who owns the site when the project ends?

Everything is in your name from the start: the domain, the hosting account, the WordPress install and the content. If the work ever ends, the site stays put and Lithium gives you the logins with a walkthrough.

Will a new site lose the rankings the old one has?

A move is planned before anything switches. The pages with traffic or links get a redirect to their new address, and we check Search Console after launch. Positions can still shift, and nobody can promise they will not. The redirect map is part of the build.

Can my team edit the pages after launch?

Yes, the site is WordPress. A paragraph, a photo or a finished project can be changed by your team without a developer. The private Loom recording shows where each control sits, and the optional $99 a month plan covers hosting, daily backups, software and security updates and basic changes if you would rather not touch it.

What should I have ready before the build starts?

Three things: a batch of photos from finished jobs, the list of work you take on, and the towns you serve. We handle the writing from a kickoff conversation, and you sign off on the layout and the words before launch.
