How your painting website gets built, step by step
A clear line between what you do and what we do. You supply the content and check the result; we build, launch and keep it current. The build takes up to 14 days from the day your content is complete.
The six steps
-
Before you sign anything
Book the call
You and us
A short call about your business: the services you offer, the areas you cover, who your customers are and what photos you already have.
You leave knowing what the site would include, what it costs and what the terms say, in writing. If a DIY builder or a one-off build would suit you better, we say so.
-
At your pace
Send your content
You
You get the content checklist below. Answer it in your own words, even as rough notes, and send photos straight from your phone.
The 14-day build period starts when we have everything on the list. If anything is missing we tell you what, quickly.
-
Within 14 days of your content
We build the site
Us
We lay out your pages, set up the quote form with questions for your kind of work, write alt text for your photos and set the page titles and descriptions.
Your site is ready to review within 14 days of us receiving your content.
-
Before launch
Review it on your phone
You
We send you a private preview link. Check it the way a customer would: on your phone, looking for your services, your areas and the quote button.
Send us anything that is wrong or missing, and we fix it before launch.
-
Launch day
Go live
Us, with your domain access
Your domain gets pointed at the finished site, the quote form is switched on, and we send a test enquiry through to be sure it lands with you.
Your 12-month minimum term starts on the day the site goes live.
-
Every month after
Keep it up to date
You send, we change
Send up to 5 content edits a month: new photos, a changed price, an added suburb.
Each month you get a report of the enquiries your website received.
Your side, our side
What you send
- One call to talk through the business
- The content checklist, in your own words
- Photos of your work, straight from your phone
- Access to your domain
- Checking the preview and sending changes
- Sending edits when the business changes
What we handle
- Page layout, gallery, service and suburb pages
- A quote form set up for the work you do
- Alt text, page titles and descriptions
- Launch, domain connection and a test enquiry
- Hosting, SSL and security updates
- Your edits, and the monthly enquiry report
What slows a build down
Almost always the same three things, all on the checklist: photos still on someone's phone, nobody able to log in to the domain registrar, and a list of services that changes after the build has started. Sort those early and the 14 days is comfortable.
The content checklist: everything we need from you
Everything we need from you to build the site. Tick things off as you go; the ticks stay on this page only and aren't sent anywhere.
Don't have everything? Send what you have. We tell you what's missing, and the 14-day build period starts once it arrives.
After launch, the site keeps working
Most painter websites are built once and left. This one isn't. Each month you can send up to 5 content edits, and you get a report of the enquiries it received. When your business changes, the site changes with it.
After the 12-month minimum term the plan continues month to month. Details are in the plan terms, and the costs are on the cost page.
Good edits to send in your first months
- Before and after photos from the jobs you finish
- A "now booking for" line when your calendar fills up
- A new suburb when you start working further out
- Reviews customers have agreed you can quote
