While many designers can build attractive websites for construction companies, few understand the very different requirements of each trade. A cement supplier selling on price and reliability needs a completely different website and marketing approach to a loft-conversion specialist competing on portfolio and trust.
Plumbing, electrical work, roofing, landscaping, building, joinery; each trade has its own buying behaviours, customer expectations, and local search patterns. Many non-specialist designers simply aren’t aware of these differences.
At The Digital Marketing Guru, we create construction and trade websites built around the reality of how your customers search, compare and hire. With more than 15 years of experience working with construction and trade industries, we understand what drives enquiries for each trade.
This means every website we build is tailored, strategic and conversion-driven. Instead of simply focusing on visuals, we prioritise clarity, credibility, user experience and Google visibility, helping your business win more work, generate high-quality leads and stand out in a crowded market.

Our prices are quoted on a number of variables, most notably the time it takes to complete the site, from research, to design, to build. Depending on what's right for you and your goals we will assess each situation individually and quote accordingly. Basic websites can start from £690 + Hosting whereas more comprehensive sites will be in the region of up to £3 - 4000 range.
Again, this can all depend on time and what requirements are necessary for your site. Smaller websites can take between 4 and 6 weeks, yet larger ones can take over 2 months. It all depends on your personal goals and what you are going to use your website for.
With any website you will need to host it on a server. Unless you have your own server this will likely cost you a small fee a month. Other maintenance works such as back ups and updates may also cost a small fee per month. I offer Hosting and 2 hours of maintenance a month at £99. Other website designers may offer this service at different prices, and others may offer simply just hosting at a cheaper monthly rate, but what I find is many businesses owners that opt for just hosting, and then wish for back ups and updates and small changes to their site, which which ultimately costs more in the long term as they are then getting charged per hour. If you require more dramatic edits to your website, this is priced up separately as ongoing website development work.
Yes, Most of our projects involve a collaboration of my services, so Web design and SEO, or Ads and SEO, even SEO and Rep management. You can take a look at some of our latest work here.
Yes, all websites are designed and search engine optimised, on desktop and mobile.
As an SEO specialist and a 15 years experienced marketer, I can only say yes to this. My whole ethos is around building websites from a marketers perspective not a developers. We are a team of website marketers. I see so many websites that are developed and built really well, yet offer so little upon a marketing audit. I would recommend to have a website designed so that it is going to get seen, and is optimised for conversions. This is where we can give you an edge
