Helping local tradespeople grow their business with powerful, lead- generating websites and ongling SEO
Are you looking for Website and SEO services in
West Sussex is a county with high demand for trades, spanning coastal towns, commuter hubs, and rural villages. From plumbers in Chichester, to roofers in Crawley, to electricians in Worthing, customers search Google every day for reliable trades and services. Without a strong online presence, those valuable enquiries will almost always go to your competitors.
At Local Trades Websites, we build websites designed to generate real enquiries instead of just sitting online as digital brochures. Paired with targeted SEO campaigns, we make sure your services appear across West Sussex in all the towns and villages where your customers are searching.
Our West Sussex services include:
From painters in Horsham, to landscapers in Worthing, to carpenters in Bognor Regis, our websites and SEO packages are built to keep West Sussex trades busy with consistent enquiries.
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.
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.
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.
A fast, responsive website is no longer optional, it's essential! We make sure your new tradesman website performs flawlessly on all devices; desktop, tablet, and mobile. Google rewards responsive sites with better rankings, which means more organic visitors finding your services.
Animations, when done right, enhance user experience and make your website feel modern and dynamic. We use animations strategically to guide the visitor’s journey, boost interaction, and strengthen your brand image without slowing down the site.
Want to beat your competitors? as any leading website developer would tell you, We’ll analyse who’s ranking above you and why, then build a strategy to outperform them in search results. From backlink profiles to content gaps, we’ll tailor your site to target their weaknesses and claim your space at the top of Google.

We write high-quality, SEO-friendly content for your blog or service pages tailored specifically to your trade. Whether you’re a plumber, joiner, roofer, electrician, tiler, drainer or decorator, we’ll create unique content that shows off your expertise, helps Google index your site, and gives local users something worth reading. You’ll even have access to our ready-to-use image library to save time.

We build hundreds of location-specific landing pages tailored to your trade - plumbing, joinery, roofing, electrics, and more. These pages are designed to target “[your trade] near me” searches, helping you dominate your local area. With custom-written content, smart schema markup, and SEO-driven structure, these pages boost visibility, attract local traffic, and convert browsers into paying customers.

Unlike WordPress sites that often rely on third-party plugins (which can introduce vulnerabilities), we use Webflow to host secure, modern websites. Your site benefits from SSL encryption, automatic updates, DDoS protection, and industry-compliant hosting—keeping your business safe while giving your clients peace of mind.

We integrate Google Analytics and performance tracking tools so you can see exactly how your site is performing. From user behaviour to traffic sources, we help you understand what’s working and where to improve. Over time, this insight allows us to tweak your local trade content, improve conversion paths, and refine your SEO, driving better engagement and more leads.

West Sussex offers trades a wide variety of opportunities thanks to its mix of coastal towns, affluent commuter areas, and heritage-rich villages. Chichester, with its cathedral and historic homes, generates steady demand for roofers, decorators, and carpenters. Crawley, as a modern commuter hub close to Gatwick Airport, is a hotspot for plumbers, electricians, and builders. Worthing provides consistent opportunities for landscapers, tilers, and painters, while Horsham’s affluent communities create demand for bespoke trades such as joinery, high-end decorating, and garden transformations. Bognor Regis, with its coastal homes, also drives consistent work for cleaners, roofers, and property maintenance businesses.
The diversity of housing in West Sussex means trades of all kinds can find steady demand. In Crawley and Horsham, new builds and family homes create opportunities for electricians, plumbers, and landscapers. In Chichester and nearby villages, heritage housing often requires specialist services like carpentry, roofing, and traditional decorating. A roofer in Worthing could target searches like “emergency roof repairs Worthing,” while a cleaner in Bognor Regis could build long-term contracts with holiday let owners. A landscaper in Horsham might showcase premium garden projects, while a joiner in Chichester could promote bespoke carpentry and restoration for listed properties.
Tourism and coastal living also create opportunities. With attractions such as Arundel Castle, the South Downs National Park, and seaside towns like Littlehampton and Bognor Regis, there’s a steady flow of second homes, Airbnbs, and holiday cottages. These properties need ongoing cleaning, decorating, and maintenance. By creating SEO-optimised service and location landing pages, your business can capture these searches and secure regular work.
We’ve proven this system works. For traditionalcarpentry.uk, we created more than 1,400 SEO landing pages across Kent and London, giving them long-term visibility and predictable enquiries. The same system can be applied to your West Sussex trade business, ensuring you stand out online and grow steadily.
At Local Trades Websites, we know a website must do more than rank, it must convert visitors into customers. That’s why our websites include enquiry forms, reviews, and strong call-to-action buttons to encourage contact. With our ongoing SEO management, your rankings will improve month after month, keeping you ahead of the competition.
If you’re still relying on Checkatrade, Bark, or word-of-mouth alone, you’re missing out on dozens of weekly enquiries. With a West Sussex-focused website and SEO campaign, you can secure predictable leads, long-term visibility, and establish your business as the go-to trade in the county.
