What the site has to do in five seconds

What a Scranton visitor looks for first

A visitor who lands on a Scranton service site is deciding whether to call. Lithium Marketing builds WordPress sites that answer with finished work, a clear service list and a phone number a thumb can reach. The median Scranton home was built in 1938, so the photos that matter are repair and replacement jobs on houses of that age.

The site also has to work at phone width. We test every form and call button at that width, keep the pages fast, and hand over a site your team can edit without a developer.

The Scranton market

What older Scranton housing means for the gallery

Scranton’s housing is old: 87.5% of the stock was standing before 1980. With so little new construction (2.5% of Scranton homes built since 2010), the gallery should show repair and replacement work, not new builds.

The city’s 35,512 housing units and a median home value of $158,100 are the market the site is selling into. A visitor comparing quotes wants to see how you handled the same job nearby, and the quote form should ask enough to price it.

Trades in Lackawanna County

The county’s trade mix decides the gallery

Lackawanna County’s residential remodelers (77) and new home builders (28) sell finished spaces, so the proof is a before-and-after set with the scope spelled out. A gallery that shows only the pretty ending leaves the visitor guessing what the job involved.

The county’s 16 painting contractors sell the room, and its 72 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors sell speed. Those two sites should not share a template.

The build

What a Scranton website build covers

You see the phone layout before the build starts, and nothing goes live until every form and call link works.

1

Collect the jobs and the questions

You send photos and the questions customers ask; we write the pages from those, not from a template.

2

Start with the phone layout

The layout is approved on a phone, with the call button and photos where a visitor looks first.

3

Test every form and call link

Every form and call link gets tested, and GA4 and call tracking go in before launch.

4

Move the old pages and hand over

Each old address with traffic gets a redirect to its new page, your team gets a walkthrough, and the site is yours to edit.

What every Lithium website includes

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

Proof

A Portland glass company’s website, search and ads

Town & Country Glass is a Portland commercial glass company. The website, the SEO and the Google Ads all came from Lithium, so the numbers on the card reflect all three. Drake Snodgrass of Drake’s 7 Dees appears in the quote card.

A page for every place a crew works

A crew that works in Binghamton, New York or Wilkes-Barre in Luzerne County can point to a page built for that city, and the pills below carry the same web design pages for Easton, Bethlehem, Allentown and Reading. The Pennsylvania page covers the rest of the state.

FAQ

What a Scranton rebuild changes

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What should the site show in the first few seconds?

It should show who you are, the work you do and how to call. A visitor on a phone should see the number and a finished job before scrolling past the first screen. Everything else, including the full service list and the history, can sit one tap below.

How do you handle photos of a customer’s house?

You choose the photos and confirm permission to use them. We crop and size them for the page, keep addresses and house numbers out of the frame, and pair each set with a description of the work.

What happens to our old pages after the redesign?

Every address that has earned a link or a visit gets a matching new URL and a permanent redirect, planned before launch. We compare Search Console before and after the switch, because a redesign can help some pages and hurt others; the pages that already bring visitors get the closest watch.

Can we keep our domain and email addresses?

The domain stays in your account, and the site moves onto it without touching your email. If the domain sits somewhere else, we help move the site, not the mailbox.

How is the price for a bigger site set?

The price follows page count, the copy each page needs and the integrations you want. A site with two services and one city is a small build; a company with several crews, a page for each part of Scranton and a form that routes by service is a larger one. You get a fixed proposal for the larger build before work starts.
