Web design in New Haven

What a New Haven website has to prove in the first screen

Lithium Marketing builds WordPress sites for New Haven service businesses around the customer who is on a phone, partway through a decision and ready to leave. The first screen has to show the work, say what you sell and keep the phone within reach.

The median home in New Haven was built in 1954, so the projects that matter here are usually repairs, replacements and remodels on an older house. A site that shows those jobs, room by room, gives a homeowner a reason to trust your crew with a building that old.

The New Haven market

What the housing stock asks of a website

Downtown New Haven holds nearly 7,000 residents, many of them in apartments and condos, while only 5.7% of New Haven’s homes went up in 2010 or later. A service website needs a gallery for each kind of job: repair and remodel work on older houses, and the work that comes with rented units.

Renters live in most of New Haven’s occupied homes: only 28.4% are owner-occupied. Give those customers a page that explains who signs off on the work, how a landlord approves a repair and what a tenant should have ready before the crew arrives.

Trades in the region

Remodelers and builders need a different website

The South Central Connecticut Planning Region lists 194 residential remodelers and 31 new home builders. A remodeling buyer may be weighing months of work and a large share of a home’s value, and may want to see a finished project from a similar house before asking for an estimate. Lead with those projects and explain how the crew works around a family.

The repair trades need the opposite first screen. A plumber, an electrician or one of the region’s 75 painting contractors gets a visitor who wants a phone number, a service area and a next opening, and every extra click between them and that number costs you the job.

The build, step by step

How a New Haven site gets from photos to launch

Your photos and your service list start it, and every page gets read by you before it goes live.

1

Sort the photos first

You send finished jobs and the services they represent, and we pick the ones that answer a buyer’s first question: has this crew done my kind of work?

2

Write the pages around the work

Service pages, town pages and a short about section, written from a call with you and the projects you sent.

3

Check every call button on a phone

Every call button, form and confirmation gets checked on a real phone, and GA4 plus call tracking go in before launch.

4

Transfer the accounts

Old addresses get redirected, the site goes live, and you get the domain, the hosting account and a private video walkthrough of how to edit it.

What every Lithium website includes

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

Proof

A Portland glass company whose site, SEO and ads came from Lithium

Town & Country Glass, a commercial glass company in Portland, brought Lithium a website rebuild along with SEO and Google Ads, and the numbers on the card come from that work as a whole. Kevin Atiyeh of Atiyeh Bros, the carpet and rug business, describes what working with the team has been like.

FAQ

A New Haven rebuild: what to settle first

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

How long does a build take?

Six to nine weeks from kickoff to launch for a typical service business site. The clock starts once the photos, the service list and the domain access are in hand, and it waits if copy is sitting on your review. Larger builds get their own schedule with the proposal.

What does the typical price include?

A WordPress site with the pages a service business needs, the copy, the project photos placed and sized, call and form tracking, schema and a private video walkthrough. Most builds land at $5,000; anything larger gets a fixed proposal before work starts.

Who holds the domain and the hosting account?

You do, from day one. We work inside accounts opened in your name, so the domain, the hosting and the WordPress install never sit with us. If you ever move to another shop, nothing has to be rebuilt. If you would rather not handle updates, the optional $99 a month plan covers hosting, daily backups, software and security updates, and basic changes.

What happens to the pages we already rank for?

They move with a redirect. We list every address that has traffic or links, map it to its replacement and watch Search Console for a few weeks after launch. A page with no replacement stays live until you decide what to do with it.

What should we have ready before kickoff?

Three things: photos of jobs you would show a customer, a list of everything you sell, and an hour on the phone. We draft the words, so you are not writing pages after dinner, and nothing is published until you have read it.
