Portland web design, answered

A Portland website that earns the call

Lithium Marketing designs and builds WordPress websites for Portland service businesses so more of the people who visit call or ask for a quote. In a city where the median home was built in 1966, the site has to show that you know older houses and make calling you easy on a phone.

Portland homes carry real value, too: the median value is $581,500. To show a buyer you can be trusted with a house like that, we put your project photos, reviews and service pages ahead of the quote form.

The Portland market

Old houses, new zoning and what to put on your site

Of Portland’s homes, 63.4% were built before 1980 and only 13.4% in 2010 or later. Your site should lead with repair, upgrade and remodel work on older houses, each project with before-and-after photos and a line on what you fixed.

Portland also changed what gets built. In 2021 the city ended single-family zoning and allowed four homes by right on virtually all residential lots, and about 1,400 new “missing middle” homes followed in the next three years. If you build, remodel or wire that kind of project, give multi-unit work its own gallery page so those buyers see it.

Trades in Portland

Different Portland trades need different first screens

Remodelers and builders are Multnomah County’s two biggest trade groups, with 436 residential remodelers and 329 new home builders. They sell large projects, so their sites need full galleries, a page per project type and a quote form that asks for scope and timeline up front.

Repair trades work the other way. A plumber’s or electrician’s site puts the phone number, service area and emergency hours at the top for the visitor who needs someone today. A painting contractor, one of 146 in the county, needs both: fast contact for the quote and a gallery of finished rooms.

The build

How a Portland website gets built

You approve each stage, and the site goes live only after every form, call button and tracking tag has been tested.

1

Gather your real work

You send job photos, your service list and the Portland areas you cover. We write the copy from those and from a call with you.

2

Design for the phone first

You review mobile and desktop designs with the call button, quote form and project photos placed where a buyer looks first.

3

Build, test and track

We build on WordPress, test every form and phone link, and connect GA4 and call tracking so each call has a source.

4

Launch and hand over the keys

Old URLs get redirected, the site goes live and you get a private Loom walkthrough for making your own edits.

What every Lithium website includes

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

Town & Country Glass: a Portland website backed by SEO and Google Ads

Town & Country Glass, a commercial glass company in Portland, came to Lithium for a new website, SEO and Google Ads, and the card shows what changed. Daniel Busby of Willard Power Vac, an air duct, dryer vent and chimney cleaning company, tells his own story beside it.

FAQ

Before you rebuild your Portland website

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

When does a website cost more than $5,000?

When the site is bigger than a typical service business site. A remodeler with dozens of finished projects, or a company that wants a page for every part of Portland and every suburb it serves, needs more pages and copy, and you get the price for that larger build before any work starts.

Who owns the website when it’s finished?

You do, outright. Everything sits in accounts with your name on them, so if you ever leave Lithium, the site, the domain and every page and photo go with you. That is the difference between owning a website and renting one.

Will my Google rankings survive a new site?

We protect them by redirecting every old URL that has traffic or links to its new page and checking Search Console around launch. No one can promise rankings stay exactly where they were, but a planned move keeps the pages Google already trusts connected to the new site.

Can my team make changes after launch?

Yes. It’s WordPress, so your team can change text, swap photos and add finished jobs without touching code. You get a private Loom walkthrough of your own site, and our optional hosting and maintenance plan covers updates and basic changes if you would prefer to hand those off.

What do you need from me to start a website?

Photos of real jobs, your full service list, the areas you cover and time for a kickoff call. We write the copy, so you don’t have to, and you review the designs and pages before anything goes live.
