Building it yourself was the hard part. These are the small things that decide whether a visitor rings you or the next result.
Can someone on a phone ring you with one tap from the top of the page, or do they have to hunt for your number?
I send one clearly marked test enquiry through your contact form and check it reaches you. If it fails, nobody tells you.
Does your Google profile link to the site, and do your name, phone and service area match on both?
Placeholder pages, sample text and stock contact details the builder left behind. Customers notice them.
The page titles and descriptions people see in search. Do they say what you do and where, or the builder default?
How it loads on a phone over 4G, and whether the security certificate is set up so browsers don't warn people off.
Three ways to go from here. All of them are fine by me.
Work through it at your own pace. Each fix is written in plain English for the builder you use.
You keep your site and your builder. I make the changes, then send a plain list of everything I did.
Website, Google profile, social and enquiries handled for one monthly fee. See the packages.
Sacha, founder. Sunshine Coast, QLD.
I'm Sacha. I spent 30 years in commercial roles as a business analyst and project manager, working out where businesses leak time and money.
Now I'm self-employed like you. I read your site the way your customers do, and I tell you plainly what I'd change and what I'd leave alone.
“The website is fantastic. It is clear, concise, warm and welcoming. I really love the way you have included details that new people might wonder about.”
A scanner gives you forty warnings and no idea which ones matter. I go through your site by hand and give you the handful that are costing you calls, in order.

No. The list is yours. Most fixes are things you can do yourself in an afternoon, and I write them so you can.
No. Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, GoDaddy, Shopify, whatever you used. I work with what you have and only suggest a rebuild if the site truly can't do the job.
Your website link, your business name and the best number to reach you. I don't need any logins for the check.
No. I send the list and one follow-up to see if you have questions. After that it is up to you.
