Why trades need a specific approach
Your customers search, then call.
When someone in Hobart needs a tradie, they search Google. "Plumber hobart", "electrician near me", "builder tasmania". They look at the first few results, check if the business serves their area, and call. If you are not on that first page — or if your website does not make it easy to call — you lose the job.
Tradies need websites that do three things: show up in local search, make it obvious what you do and where you work, and make it effortless to contact you. A generic template does none of that well.
