What the site has to do

A Tuscaloosa website built to earn the call

A Tuscaloosa service business sells work that a customer has to see before calling, and Lithium Marketing builds WordPress sites that put that work on the first screen. The median home in the city was built in 1988, so many of the photos a plumber, a roofer or a remodeler needs are of houses with a history.

That history is why the photos matter more than the headline: a before-and-after of an older kitchen or a roof replacement on a house that has settled tells a buyer what the company has handled. Of the city’s homes, 42.2% went up before 1980, so the gallery should show older houses as often as new ones.

The housing on your pages

What a buyer looks at before calling

The median home value in the city is $255,500, so the houses a contractor works on are worth showing properly. Project photos, a service list and a quote form that works on a phone tell that buyer what the company has handled; a paragraph about being family owned tells them less.

The gallery needs both ends of the city’s housing stock: a house brought back to life and a new one finished properly.

Trades in Tuscaloosa County

A different first screen for each trade

Tuscaloosa County has 38 residential remodelers and 37 new home builders, and both sell work a buyer wants to see before hiring: a finished kitchen, a whole house, a porch. Their pages need galleries and a project list, not a phone number alone.

The county has 20 roofing contractors and 21 painting contractors, and their work often starts with a phone call about a problem. Their home page should open with the number, the towns they cover and a photo of a roof or a wall they finished.

The build

From the first photo to launch day

Four stages, and you see the design before a line of it is built.

1

Pick the pages before the pixels

We agree on the service pages, the city pages and the project pages the site needs, based on the jobs you want and the towns you cover.

2

Write it from your photos

You send finished work, and the copy and captions come from those jobs, your service list and a call with you.

3

Show you two screen sizes

You review the design at phone width and desktop width before anything is built, with the call button and the quote form placed where a buyer looks.

4

Test it, launch it, hand it over

Forms, phone links and tracking are tested on the live site, old addresses are redirected, and a Loom recording shows your team how to edit.

FAQ

Questions to settle before a new Tuscaloosa site

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What makes a website cost more than the typical build?

The typical build is $5,000. More pages, more project galleries and more locations push it up, and a bigger site gets a fixed quote before the work starts. A small service business with a handful of pages usually stays at the typical number.

If we part ways, what happens to the site?

It stays with you. The domain, the hosting, the WordPress install and the content sit in accounts with your name on them, so the site goes where your business goes.

Will a new site lose the rankings we already have?

We protect the pages that already earn visits. Every old address with traffic or links gets a matching new page, and the redirects go in before launch. Rankings can move in any rebuild, so the plan keeps the pages Google trusts pointed at the same content and checks the new URLs in Search Console after the switch.

Can our team update the site after launch?

Yes, because the site is WordPress and your team gets the login. Changing a headline, adding a finished job or swapping a photo takes no code, and the Loom recording walks through your own pages. If you would rather not touch it, the optional $99-a-month plan covers hosting, daily backups, software and security updates, and basic website changes.

How much of the work falls on us?

To start, send photos of jobs you have finished and the list of services and towns you sell. Lithium writes the copy and builds the pages, and you sign off on the design before the build begins.
