Pages that match your capability
One page per thing you actually do, written so a builder or a fleet manager can tell in ten seconds whether you handle their job. Responsive websites throughout, because most of them are reading on a phone in a ute.

Custom web design, SEO and ongoing website management for Matraville businesses. Built for workshops and suppliers whose buyers search for the job, not the brand.
I recently worked with Julian and the team at MindSite Web Services. Julian made the process so enjoyable, he was so responsive to my needs and communicated thoroughly through the entire process. I would highly recommend MindSite!

Why it matters here
Matraville is two suburbs in one. There is the residential side around Bunnerong Road, and then there is the working side: yards, workshops, panel shops, fabricators, plumbing and electrical outfits, and suppliers feeding the industrial belt down towards Port Botany.
The businesses on the working side almost never lose a job on price. They lose it because a buyer searching for a specific capability at four in the afternoon could not tell from the website whether they handle it, so they rang the next one down.
Our website design work here starts from what the buyer types. One page per capability, written so a builder, a fleet manager or a procurement officer can tell in ten seconds whether you are the right call.
The other thing about this end of the Eastern Suburbs is the mix of who is calling. The same workshop might take a job from a homeowner in Maroubra in the morning and a contract from a site down at the port in the afternoon, and those two people need completely different information from the same website.
Nearly every trade site we take over has the same fault: a services page that lists nine things in three words each. Nobody rings off that. What gets the call is a page that names the material, the machine or the standard, with a photograph of the finished job next to it.

What is included
Quoted on what the job actually needs and tailored to it. For a trade or industrial business that usually means fewer pages done properly rather than a big site nobody reads. Strategy, custom website design, web development, copy and ongoing support sit with the one team.
One page per thing you actually do, written so a builder or a fleet manager can tell in ten seconds whether you handle their job. Responsive websites throughout, because most of them are reading on a phone in a ute.
Structured around the words your buyers actually type, which is usually a product, a capability or a standard rather than a service category invented by a marketer. Technical optimisation is built in during the project, not sold to you later.
Built on WordPress so you are never locked in, with WooCommerce or Shopify behind it if you sell parts or supply. Responsive by default, your brand identity carried through every page, and adding a product line or a certificate does not mean ringing us and waiting.
Your options
Not every business needs the full job. Some come to us with branding sorted and want the web development handled properly. Some only need the existing site made fast and findable. We scope to what is actually missing and to the business goals behind it.
Services, capability, real photos of real jobs and a number never more than a thumb away. For most trades this is the entire online presence, and it only has to do one thing well.
A catalogue or trade store on top of the site, with pricing, freight and account handling set up so orders do not create more admin than they are worth. Full e-commerce where you need it, a downloadable price list where you do not.
A decade of client work
Local, not "servicing the area"
We work out of Quakers Hill in Western Sydney, so Matraville is a solid run across town.
That has never stopped us. We come to the yard, walk through what you actually do, and photograph the work in progress because that is the material a trade site lives or dies on. Everything after that runs on calls and shared screens, which suits people who are not sitting at a desk. If you would rather come to us, the coffee is on and the site goes up on a big screen.
None of the ranking work depends on our postcode. Structure, speed, schema and reviews decide it, and a good part of our client base is trade and industrial businesses in exactly this position.
What we do ask for early is the boring detail: which jobs are worth having, which enquiries waste your time, what you will not take on. A trade site earns its money by filtering as much as by attracting, and that only works if the pages are honest about scope.

Send us your site. We will show you who ranks above you for the searches that matter, what those pages do that yours does not, and whether fixing it needs a rebuild or a fortnight of work.
Straight answers
The questions we get on almost every first call from a trade or industrial business, answered plainly.
It depends how much of your capability needs documenting. A five page site for a single trade is a very different job to a supplier with sixty product lines. We scope it, then give you one fixed quote, and that is the number you pay.
Four to six weeks for most builds. The slow part is almost never the build, it is getting photos of finished work and sign off on wording, so we tell you what we need and when.
That is the point of the exercise. Structure, speed and the right words are built in, and we can keep working on rankings afterwards. We will not promise you a position, because nobody honestly can.
No. A good number of our clients we have never met in person and their sites are no worse for it. For a workshop we do like one visit, because the photographs of real jobs are usually what the site has been missing.
