Web design at spareday
A website built for customers on a phone.
Web design for tradies means a site that proves you are real and licensed, shows what you do and where, and makes ringing you easy.
Most trade customers look you up on a phone, so the site is built to load quickly and show the essentials first. spareday builds trade sites with photos of your own work, and you see the design before it goes live. Based in Newcastle, spareday works with businesses across Australia.
What it needs
Built for the phone in the customer’s hand.
- A tappable phone number in the first screen
- Calling you should take one tap.
- A page that loads quickly on mobile data
- Customers are often on a phone, not office wifi.
- What you do and where, near the top
- A customer should not have to scroll to find out whether you cover their suburb.
- Your licence number on every page
- So customers can check it easily.
Photos of your work
Use photos of your own work.
Photos of your own work, captioned with the job and suburb, show customers what you do. Reviews help too. Heavy sliders and decoration can slow a page down on a phone.
How it works
Built around the work you want more of.
We start with what you do, where you work and the jobs you want more of.
- Agree the work and the areas
- The services and suburbs the site should cover.
- Gather your photos and licence details
- Your own jobs, captioned plainly.
- Build it phone-first
- Fast on mobile data, with the number one tap away.
- Connect your Google listing
- So your site and listing tell the same story.
After the site
Owned by your business.
You own the website we build. For speed, see website speed optimisation. The same approach for other businesses is on web design for accountants and web design for dentists.
