Who this is for

Built for trades and local service businesses

Electricians, plumbers, builders and trades

You win work when people find you fast and call you first. A site built around your services and the towns you cover does exactly that.

Health, allied and personal services

Naturopaths, clinics, trainers, consultants - a calm, credible site that books consults and answers the questions clients ask before they call.

Anyone living on "near me" searches

If most of your enquiries start with a local Google search, your website and its local SEO are the difference between the call coming to you or a competitor.

Businesses stuck on a slow or DIY site

An old template, a half-finished DIY build or a site that loads slowly on a phone is costing you jobs. We replace it with something fast that actually converts.

What you get

Everything a lead-generating site needs

Not a template you fill in yourself - a professionally designed, fast website built around how your customers actually find and choose a local business.

  • Design

    A professional, mobile-first design

    Designed for your business, not pulled from a theme - and built mobile-first, because that is where nearly all of your customers will see it.

  • Services

    A page for every service

    Each service gets its own page written to rank and to sell - so a search for the exact job you do lands on the exact page for it.

  • Areas

    A page for every location

    Dedicated pages for the suburbs and towns you cover, so local searches find specific, relevant content instead of a generic homepage.

  • Speed

    Fast pages that stay fast

    Built on modern static tech that loads in milliseconds and passes Google’s Core Web Vitals - no plugin stack slowing it down over time.

  • SEO

    Local SEO, done properly

    Titles, meta, headings and LocalBusiness schema set up right, plus your Google Business Profile aligned so the whole picture points the same way.

  • Leads

    Built to get the call

    Click-to-call, enquiry forms, quote requests and your reviews placed where they matter - the site is designed to turn a visit into a job.

  • Launch

    Hosting, launch & support

    Deployed to fast, low-cost hosting in your name, with forms and analytics wired up - and we stay on afterwards for changes and new pages.

Why us

Fast to quote, fast to build, fast to load

Most agencies make you chase a quote for a week. We don’t. Tell us about your business and you get a fixed-price proposal within 24 hours - usually a lot sooner - and a free homepage design mockup so you can see the direction before you commit to anything.

Behind the speed is twenty years of building sites and a senior team using AI to handle the repetitive work. You get agency-quality design and local SEO without the agency timeline or the agency invoice.

  • A fixed price, up front

    The number in the proposal is the number on the invoice. No hourly billing, no surprises, no scope creep.

  • See it before you buy it

    A free, no-obligation homepage mockup means you judge the real thing - your business, your design - not a sales pitch.

  • A site you fully own

    Your domain, your hosting, your accounts. No proprietary page builder holding your site hostage, ever.

Not another WordPress site

Faster, safer, and nothing to break

Most tradie websites are WordPress. Ours aren't - and that single decision is why they load quicker, don't get hacked, and never go down because a plugin updated itself overnight.

Real scores, from a real build

This is the actual Google PageSpeed report for a site we built exactly like the one on this page. Google uses these numbers as a ranking signal, and your customers feel them as a page that's simply there when they tap.

Google PageSpeed Insights results for h1electrical.com.au: 100 Performance, 93 Accessibility, 96 Best Practices, 100 SEO, 3 of 3 Agentic Browsing
h1electrical.com.au - straight from Google PageSpeed Insights

Lead In Electrical, built the same way, scored 99 for Performance and 100 for SEO on the same test. These were the results at the time of testing - scores move as pages change and as Google updates how it measures, so treat them as real examples rather than a guarantee for every site.

  • Nothing to hack

    Typical WordPressA database, a login page and 20-odd plugins - the most attacked software on the web.

    Your buildFlat HTML files on a CDN. No database, no admin login, no plugin with a vulnerability in it.

  • Speed that stays

    Typical WordPressEvery page built on demand, then patched up with a caching plugin. Slows as plugins pile up.

    Your buildPages are pre-built and served from the edge - typically well under a second, and it stays that way.

  • No update treadmill

    Typical WordPressCore, theme and plugin updates forever - and an update can take the site down on a Friday.

    Your buildNothing to update. The site that launches is the site that runs, until you ask us to change it.

  • It stays up

    Typical WordPressShared PHP hosting buckles when you get busy - exactly when a radio ad or a storm sends traffic.

    Your buildStatic files on a global CDN absorb a traffic spike without noticing.

  • Cheaper to run

    Typical WordPressManaged hosting plus paid plugins - forms, SEO, security, backups - stacks up every year.

    Your buildHosting is cents. No plugin licences, because there are no plugins.

The Job Poster app on a phone, showing the post a job screen for H1 Electrical & Air

Included free

The Job Poster app

The reason most trade websites go stale is that adding a job means emailing a developer. So nobody does it, and the site looks the same in three years as it did on launch day.

Every build includes our Job Poster app. Finish a job, take a few photos or a short video on your phone, add a line about what you did and where - and it's on your website. No developer, no invoice, no waiting.

It's also the cheapest SEO you'll ever do: fresh, genuinely local content with real photos of real work in the suburbs you want to rank for.

  • From your phone - on the job, in a couple of minutes.
  • Photos and video - resized and optimised automatically so pages stay fast.
  • Location tagged - each job strengthens the suburb page it belongs to.
  • Tidies up your wording - optional AI clean-up in your site's own tone, and you edit it before it posts.
  • No training needed - if you can post to Facebook, you can use it.

Fair questions

Before you ask

Do you really send a proposal within 24 hours?

Yes - and usually a lot sooner. Once we know your trade, your service area and roughly what you need, we can put a clear scope and a fixed price in front of you fast. We’ve built enough of these to know what’s involved, so you’re not waiting a week for a number.

What’s the free homepage mockup, exactly?

Tell us about your business and we’ll design a professional homepage concept for it - your name, your services, a real layout - and email it to you within 24 hours. There’s no cost and no obligation. If you love it, we build the site; if you don’t, you’ve lost nothing.

Do you build for my type of business?

If your customers find you through local search and pick up the phone, yes. We build most for electricians, plumbers, builders and other trades, and for local service and health businesses like clinics and naturopaths - but the approach suits any local service business.

What does a site cost?

$1,497 + GST ($1,646.70 inc GST) for the complete 23-page build - 10 location pages, 10 service pages, home, about and contact, all written, designed, SEO and AI optimised, and launched. That is the whole price, not a starting point. If you need more pages than that, or something unusual, tell us and we will quote it fixed-price before you pay anything.

Can I pay in instalments?

Yes - just ask. The button on this page takes the one-off payment, and we are adding a four-monthly-payment option shortly (it works out slightly higher in total than paying once). If you would rather split it now, get in touch and we will set it up manually.

What if I do not like it?

You see a free homepage mockup for your business before you pay a cent, so you already know what you are buying. After that you review the real site on a private staging link and we make changes until you are happy - nothing goes live until you say so.

Why not just use WordPress?

Because WordPress is the most-attacked software on the web and it gets slower as plugins accumulate. Your site is pre-built static files on a global CDN: there is no database and no admin login to hack, no plugin that needs patching, and pages load in milliseconds. Two sites we built this way - H1 Electrical and Lead In Electrical - scored 100 and 99 for Performance and 100 for SEO on Google PageSpeed at the time of testing. You still update your own jobs through the included Job Poster app - you just do not inherit WordPress’s maintenance and security problems.

Will it help me rank on Google?

That’s the point of building it this way. A page per service and per location, proper titles, meta and LocalBusiness schema, fast load times, and your Google Business Profile aligned - all of it is aimed at getting you found for the searches your customers actually make.

What are the ongoing costs?

Our hosting and care plan is $39 + GST a month ($42.90 inc GST) - hosting, SSL, daily backups, uptime monitoring, security patching, small content changes and the Job Poster app kept running. It starts when your site goes live, not when you pay for the build, and you can cancel any time. It is optional: there is no plugin stack to maintain, so you can host it yourself if you would rather. Your own domain renewal (around $20 a year) is the only other cost.

How do I add new jobs to the site?

With the Job Poster app, included free with every build. Finish a job, take a few photos or a short video on your phone, add a line about what you did and where, and it publishes to your website - no developer, no invoice, no waiting. It also happens to be excellent local SEO: real photos of real work in the suburbs you want to rank for.
