Tyler web design that gets the call

Web design for Tyler service businesses that puts the phone one tap away.

A Tyler service business gets a site built around the jobs it wants: finished-work photos, a call button on every screen, and its own domain.

  • Finished work on the first screen
  • One tap to call from a phone
  • The domain and site stay yours

The site that takes the call

A Tyler website built around the jobs you want

The median house in Tyler dates from 1978, so repair and replacement pages belong on the site: a repipe, a panel, a roof, a window. A website for a Tyler service business has to show that work before it asks for anything. Lithium Marketing builds the site on WordPress, writes the pages from one call with you, and puts the phone one tap from every screen.

The test is a phone, not a laptop. If a customer is standing in a flooded laundry room, they are not going to pinch and zoom; they call the number or leave. So the pages load fast, the number sits in the header on every screen, and the finished-job photos sit above the form.

The Tyler market

What older housing does to a website

Tyler has 46,019 housing units, and 52.6% of them went up before 1980, with only 12.0% built since 2010. Repair and upgrade work is the story that stock tells, so the gallery should lead with repipes, panel upgrades and roofs, not new builds.

The city’s median home value is $235,300. For a house at that value, the gallery should show work on a similar house: finished-job photos, a page per service and a few reviews from the same part of town, ahead of a stock photo of a van.

Trades in Smith County

Which Tyler trades need a gallery, and which need a number

Home builders and remodelers sell a project, not a repair, and Smith County counts 93 builders and 43 remodelers. Those buyers compare proof of similar work: a gallery sorted by project type, a scope and timeline question early in the form, and photos that show the finish.

Repair trades read a site differently. For a plumber, an electrician or a glass contractor, the phone number, the service area and the hours belong at the top, because the visitor may have water on the floor or a pane out of the frame. Smith County has 8 glass and glazing contractors, so a glass company’s commercial storefront photos do most of the selling.

The build

What happens between the call and the launch

Each stage ends with something you can look at, and the launch waits for your yes.

1

Send the work you are proud of

You send photos of completed jobs, the services you sell and the towns your crews reach. The pages get written from those, plus one call about how the company runs.

2

See two designs

Two layouts come back, one drawn for a phone and one for a desktop, with the call button and the job photos in the first screen.

3

Build, then break it on purpose

The site goes up on WordPress, and before launch every form and phone link is tested on a real handset. GA4 and call tracking go in so each call carries its source.

4

Go live with redirects in place

Every old address is redirected before the switch, and nothing goes live until the phone links work. Then a private Loom walkthrough shows your team how to edit the pages.

What every Lithium website includes

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

FAQ

Decisions that come before the build

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What decides the price of a Tyler build?

Page count and writing. A company with dozens of finished projects, or one that wants a page for every town it works in, needs more of both. Anything past a typical service business site gets its own number, agreed on the call before the work begins.

Does the site stay ours if we leave?

You do, and the accounts are opened in your name. The domain, the WordPress install, the pages and the photos are yours, so a change of agency later does not cost you the site. Ask any builder whose name sits on the hosting before you sign.

Do old page addresses survive a rebuild?

The pages that earn traffic keep their addresses where we can, and anything that moves gets a permanent redirect before the switch. Search Console is read either way. A move can unsettle rankings for a while and nobody can promise they stay put, but the pages Google already values end up tied to the new site.

Will we need a developer to change the copy?

Nobody needs a developer to change a line of copy. Text, photos and finished jobs are editable from the dashboard, and a private Loom recording walks your team through the pages you own. The optional $99 a month plan adds hosting, daily backups, software and security updates and basic changes for the weeks when nobody has the time.

How long does a Tyler build take?

Six to nine weeks from kickoff to launch for a typical service business site. The clock starts once we have your photos, your service list and one call to write from, and you review the design and the pages along the way.
