A website for the houses you work on

What a Poughkeepsie website has to show

The median house in Poughkeepsie was built in 1952, and only 5.6% of the housing was built in 2010 or later. Lithium Marketing builds WordPress sites for service businesses working on that older housing, so the page plan starts with repairs and replacements, each page carrying photos from real jobs.

A Poughkeepsie contractor's site also has to answer who owns the property, what the job costs and how long it takes. Each service page can do that with photos from the work and a short description of what the job includes.

The Poughkeepsie market

What the housing stock asks of a site

The median home value in the city is $283,700. The housing is old enough that repair and replacement work is the core of the site. The pages should split that work by job: a roof page, a furnace page, a bathroom page, each with its own gallery.

A coverage page should follow the town line, because the Town of Poughkeepsie wraps around a city of 5.145 square miles of land. A customer two streets outside the line has to guess if you will come unless the page names both municipalities.

Dutchess County trades

Builders, remodelers and the smaller trades

Dutchess County has 83 new home builders and 72 excavation and site preparation contractors. Those sites sell a process as much as a finished job, so they need the plan, the schedule and a page for each stage of the work.

Painting is a smaller field, 35 contractors in the county, and a gallery of finished rooms plus a quote form covers most of what a painter needs. The same shape works for a roofer or a landscaper who sells by showing finished work.

The build

How a Poughkeepsie site gets made

You approve the design and every page before anything goes live, and the forms get tested before launch.

1

Gather the photos and the service list

A short call and a folder of job photos start it. We write the copy, so you are not drafting pages between jobs, and you review every page before it goes live.

2

Start with the phone layout

The phone layout comes first: the number, the quote form and a photo of the work sit at the top of the screen, and the desktop version follows the same order.

3

Build on WordPress and test everything

Every form, phone link and tracking tag gets tested before launch, and the site loads fast enough to keep a visitor who is standing in a hallway.

4

Redirect the old pages and send the logins

Old addresses get redirected, the site goes live, and you get the logins plus a walkthrough video recorded on your own pages.

What every Lithium website includes

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

FAQ

Before a Poughkeepsie rebuild

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What pushes a Poughkeepsie website above the typical price?

A bigger site costs more. Galleries for each project type, a page for each service area and copy for every service add design and writing work, and a fixed proposal sets that price before the build begins.

Who owns the site, the domain and the content?

You do. The domain, the hosting, the WordPress install and the content all sit in accounts with your name on them, so the site goes with you if you ever leave.

Will a new site hold the rankings we already have?

A rebuild usually moves a few rankings, and nobody can promise otherwise. What we control is the move: every old address that carries traffic or links points at its new page, and Search Console gets checked after launch so the new URLs are read.

Who updates the site after it launches?

Pages, photos and job details are editable from the WordPress dashboard, and no code is involved. The build ends with a short video recorded on your own pages, and the optional $99 a month plan covers hosting, daily backups, software and security updates and basic website changes.

What should we have ready before the build starts?

A folder of job photos, the services you sell, the towns you cover and an hour for a kickoff call. We handle the writing and the layout, and you approve each stage before the next one starts.
