From deciding your goals and choosing a domain, to designing pages, optimising for local search and launching — everything a busy business owner needs to create a high-performing website.
A website is the permanent, searchable hub for your services, social proof, and contact details. It turns casual searches into paying customers — especially when it’s fast, mobile-ready and optimised for local search.
Local SEO helps customers find you when they search for services "near me".
A clear contact flow, click-to-call and enquiry forms convert website visitors into leads.
Analytics show which pages drive enquiries so you can invest in what works.
Follow these practical actions — you can do most of this in an afternoon, and many steps are automated with Congero’s AI-powered workflow.
Decide what success looks like: phone calls, quote requests, bookings or sales. Know your top 2–3 services and where you operate (suburbs/city) for effective local SEO.
Pick a short, memorable domain that includes your business or service if possible. Gather your logo, a phone number, email and 3–6 photos of your work or team.
Most local businesses succeed with: Home, Services (individual service pages), About, Testimonials/Projects, Contact. Add a dedicated "Service Area" section for local search signals.
Use simple headings, list your services, include location names and a benefits-driven value proposition. Aim for helpful content that answers customer needs.
Choose high-contrast text, big CTAs, and genuine photos (not generic stock). Prominently display contact details and customer reviews.
Choose reliable hosting with SSL and automatic backups. Add Google Analytics and set up Google Business Profile for local visibility.
