What We Offer

We don’t just build websites that look the part, we build websites that work hard behind the scenes too. My focus is on creating high-converting, high-performing websites that turn browsers into buyers and bring in consistent organic traffic.

Our websites are built to rank well on Google, with PageSpeed scores between 95–100% on PC, technical SEO baked in, and weekly updates to keep your content fresh and relevant. Every site is created with purpose, designed to outrank competitors and win you real business.

Unlike agencies that pump out hundreds of cookie-cutter sites and never touch them again, we don’t take on every project. Those mass-produced sites might look polished but they rarely rank, especially if you're trying to show up in "tradesperson near me" searches.

We specialise in trades websites, for builders, electricians, plumbers, joiners, roofers, window fitters, and more. We only work with a limited number of clients, ensuring every site gets the ongoing SEO care, new content, and technical upkeep it needs to stay ahead in Google’s ever-changing rankings.

If you’re serious about growing online and want a website that’s actively managed, consistently updated, and built to bring in real leads, not just sit there, this is the service for you.

Custom UX Design

We don’t use off-the-shelf templates. While 43% of the internet runs on WordPress, most of those sites end up looking exactly the same. We take a different approach. Your website will be fully custom-designed, built with inspiration from our top-performing projects, and brought to life with Webflow for a smooth, standout experience that reflects your trade business.

On-site SEO

Most website developmers do not focus heavily on on-site and local SEO. We Do!!! ensuring your website ranks for phrases like "[your trade] near me." From meta tags and internal links to keyword-rich content and mobile optimisation, we aim to push every SEO score as close to 100% as possible. The result? More traffic, higher engagement, and better conversion rates.

Manchester
Manchester is one of the UK’s most dynamic cities, and it creates a wealth of opportunities for trades. The city centre, with its mix of apartments, offices, and developments, offers consistent demand for trades such as electricians, plumbers, and decorators. Salford, with its media and commercial growth, is perfect for builders, roofers, and maintenance contractors who want long-term contracts. In Stockport, family homes drive regular demand for services such as garden landscaping, plumbing, and carpentry, while Altrincham and Didsbury, known for their more affluent housing, provide excellent opportunities for high-end decorators, joiners, and bespoke builders.

The property mix across Manchester is vast, which means trades can specialise and still find plenty of customers. A roofer in Oldham could capture emergency repair enquiries with targeted landing pages, while a cleaner in Stockport could secure repeat work by focusing on landlords and property managers. A painter in Trafford could highlight premium interior decorating services for larger homes, and a joiner in Altrincham could attract high-value clients by showcasing bespoke wooden doors, staircases, and furniture. By building a network of service and location landing pages, we make sure your business is visible across the whole Manchester region.

Tourism and business growth also fuel demand in Manchester. Hotels, Airbnb properties, and short-term rentals require consistent cleaning, decorating, and maintenance services. A cleaner in Manchester city centre could thrive by targeting “Airbnb cleaning Manchester” or “hotel cleaning services Manchester,” while builders and electricians can benefit from the ongoing commercial development across the city.

We know this strategy works because we’ve already proven it. When we worked with traditionalcarpentry.uk, we expanded their website to over 1,400 SEO-optimised landing pages across Kent and London. This gave them huge Google visibility and a reliable flow of enquiries every week. The same approach can be adapted for your Manchester business, ensuring you don’t just keep up with competitors — you overtake them.

At Local Trades Websites, we design sites to do more than rank. They are built to convert visitors into enquiries, with features like enquiry forms, click-to-call buttons, and integrated review sections that build instant trust with potential customers. We also provide continuous SEO improvements, so your rankings grow stronger month after month instead of slipping behind.

If you are still relying on directories like Checkatrade, Bark, or hoping word-of-mouth will carry you, you’re limiting your business. A Manchester-focused website and SEO package gives you control over your online presence, consistent enquiries, and the confidence that your business will thrive in one of the UK’s most competitive regions.
