Website Design & Marketing Systems For Tradies

No fluff, marketing isn't rocket science. No agency (ours included) has a magic button. We build your website and the tools that reply to every missed call, text and form, and you commit to using them.

A Website Built For Your Trade

A proper website that turns visitors into calls and messages, straight to your mobile.

Actually Get Found Online

If a customer googles you and can't find you, that's awkward. Every service and every suburb you cover gets its own clear page.

Show Off Your Real Reviews

Your Google reviews sit right on the site, so new customers see what past customers said.

Mobile Friendly

Most local searches happen on a phone. Your site loads fast and every page has tap-to-call.

Built For Local Google Searches

Titles, headings, speed and structure set up for searches like "plumber Parramatta" or "sparky near me".

Demo: a customer rates the job and leaves a 5-star Google review

5-Star Review Funnel

"No worries, I'll leave you a review"... then life gets in the way. We remind them every week until they actually do it.

Ask For Reviews In One Tap

Job done? Send a review request from your phone before you've packed up the ute.

Happy Customers Go Straight To Google

Your customer taps a star rating. 5 stars go straight to your Google review page. Anything less comes to you privately, so you can put it right.

Automatic Follow-Up Reminders

People forget. If they haven't left a review yet, a friendly reminder goes out every week, up to 4 times, until they do.

Reply From One Place

See new reviews and reply to them from the same app as your calls and messages.

Demo: a missed call gets an automatic text back

Missed Call Text Back

Everyone misses calls on the tools. Not everyone texts back. Be the one who does.

Stand Out From The Competition

Most tradies let missed calls go to voicemail. You start a conversation instead.

No More Lost Jobs

Up a ladder or under a house? The caller gets a text from your business number within seconds.

An Australian Mobile Number

We set you up with an Australian mobile number for texts and calls, or link the number you already use.

Covered Nights And Weekends

Calls that come in at night or on the weekend still get an instant reply, even while you sleep.

Demo: a marketing campaign launched in one click

One-Click Marketing Campaigns

Referrals and repeat customers are the best kind of work. Let's get you more of both.

Done For You

Ready-made campaigns are set up in your account. Add a customer, tap launch, and the texts go out from your business number.

Referral Campaigns

Happy customers are your best salespeople. A friendly text asks them to pass your name on to friends and neighbours.

Win Back Past Customers

Haven't heard from someone in a while? A quick check-in brings repeat jobs back without you chasing anyone.

Seasonal Reminders

Aircon services before summer, gutter cleans before storm season, smoke alarm checks: remind customers before the busy season starts.

Local Search & Google Ads

"Number one on Google next week!" Not from us. Local search takes time, so we set it up properly from day one.

Built For Local Search

Fast pages for your services and suburbs, linked to your Google Business Profile.

Optional Google Ads

Want enquiries sooner? We can run ads for the searches that matter to your business.

Follow-Up On Every Lead

Every enquiry gets an instant text and email, so you don't pay for clicks that go nowhere.

Stop renting your leads
from job platforms

hipages, Airtasker, Oneflare and ServiceSeeking can bring in work. But the customer, the reviews and the next job belong to the platform. hipages memberships start from $139 + GST a month for 155 credits to accept leads (source), and in 2023 the ACCC reported initial subscription terms of six to 12 months (source). Your own system is one flat monthly price.

Job platforms & lead sitesYour own WebScaling system
Who owns the customer?The platform. Your profile and reviews live on their site.You. Every customer is saved in your own app.
Who else gets the job?Often several tradies are sent the same job and quote against each other.Enquiries from your website and number come only to you.
How you payA membership with credits per lead, or a fee per job, depending on the site.One flat price: A$149/month.
Your reviewsCollected on the platform's own site.Sent to your Google Business Profile, where local customers look.
If the platform changes its rules or pricesYour listing, leads and reviews change with it.Your website, number and customer list keep working.

You don't have to quit a platform to use WebScaling. Plenty of tradies keep one listing and use their own website and number to win the work that comes to them directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a website for tradies cost with WebScaling?
One plan covers the website, hosting and the lead system: A$149/month, or A$1,490/year, which works out at 2 months free. Prices are in AUD. On the free demo call we look at what your business needs, with no obligation.
Is WebScaling a hipages alternative?
Not exactly. hipages, Airtasker, Oneflare and ServiceSeeking are job platforms: customers post a job and several tradies can quote. WebScaling gives you your own website, number and customer list, so the enquiries that come to you directly are yours. Some tradies use both, some drop the platform once their own enquiries pick up. That's your call. Our hipages review for tradies covers costs and contract terms.
Do I need to change my phone number?
No. We can set you up with an Australian mobile number for calls and texts, or link the number you already use. Australian numbers need a business address on file for regulatory reasons, so we ask for yours during setup. Missed calls get an instant text back, and every conversation lands in one app on your phone.
When am I going to start seeing results?
It depends on your area, your prices, your reviews and how quickly you respond, and on you actually using the system. We won't promise miracles. What the system does is make sure every enquiry is captured, answered and followed up, so fewer customers slip through the cracks.
Can people find my website on Google?
Every WebScaling site is built for local search: fast pages, clear titles and headings, a page for each service and suburb you cover, and a link to your Google Business Profile. Rankings depend on your competition, your reviews and how long the site has been live, so we never promise a position.
Do I need any technical skills?
No. We build and connect everything. Day to day you use one app to reply to customers, see new enquiries and send review requests.
Do you work with tradies across Australia?
Yes. Everything is set up remotely: the demo call, the build and the launch call happen over video, so it works the same in Perth, Townsville, Hobart or Western Sydney.
