What the site has to do

A Salinas site built around the jobs you finish

Salinas is an older housing market. 57.9% of Salinas homes were built before 1980, so the repair, upgrade and remodel work that follows is what your site has to show first. Lithium Marketing puts that work on a WordPress site: finished-job photos, a page for each service and a call button a thumb can find.

The median Salinas home is valued at $654,100, and a house at that value deserves a page that shows the work. Stock photos prove nothing about your crews; finished-job photos do.

The housing behind the work

Houses from 1976 and the photos that sell them

The median Salinas home dates to 1976, and only 3.7% of the city’s housing was built in 2010 or later. Older properties mean repair, repipe, re-roof and remodel work, so the site should show before-and-after photos of those jobs, not a new-build gallery.

With 47.0% of Salinas occupied homes owner-occupied, a tenant may be the one who calls. Put the approval question in the quote form so the request arrives with the name of the person who can say yes.

Trades in Monterey County

A painter, a roofer and a remodeler need different galleries

Painting contractors number 104 in Monterey County. A painter’s gallery has to show preparation and finish, because a photograph of a color explains nothing about the work.

A roofer, one of 41 in Monterey County, needs photos of the finished roof and the problem it fixed. A remodeler or a home builder sells a project a customer researches for weeks, so the site needs a page for each kind of build, with scope, timing and finished photos in one place.

The build, step by step

How your Salinas site gets made

You approve the pages, the photos and the forms before anything goes live.

1

Send the work you have finished

You send pictures of finished jobs and the services and neighborhoods you cover. The words on the page come from those, plus one conversation with you.

2

Approve the phone layout

You review the design on a phone and on a desktop, with the call button and quote form where a thumb can find them.

3

Test every form and link

The build goes on WordPress, and every form, phone link and tracking tag gets tested before launch.

4

Own the site and the domain

The domain, hosting, WordPress install and content stay in your name, and a private Loom walkthrough shows you how to edit.

Sarkinen Plumbing: a website with SEO and Google Ads

Sarkinen Plumbing serves the Portland area. Its new website, its SEO and its Google Ads all came from Lithium, and the card’s numbers are from all three. The quote is from Daniel Busby, president of Willard Power Vac.

FAQ

Before you replace your Salinas website

Still curious?

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

What does a Salinas website cost?

Typically $5,000. A larger build with more service pages and project galleries gets a fixed proposal after a discovery call, so the number is set before work starts.

Who owns the site when it is finished?

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

Will a new site keep its search rankings?

Old links get mapped to their new pages before launch, and Search Console is checked in the weeks after. Rankings can wobble during a move; what protects them is sending every URL with traffic or links to the right replacement.

Can my team edit the site after launch?

WordPress lets your team change text, swap photos and add finished jobs without code, and the private Loom walkthrough shows how.

What should we send before the kickoff?

Three things: pictures of completed work, every service you sell, and the towns you serve. A kickoff call covers the rest; the writing is our job, and yours is to correct the draft before launch.
