Web design for tradesmen. Copy included.
Most tradesmen websites don't fail on the design - they fail on the copy. We write every page, then design and build a fast, locally optimised website for your trade. You stay on the job.
What we offer
Copy included - we write it for you
You spend 30 minutes on the phone telling us about your shop. We turn that into homepage, service pages, about and references - in your voice, no marketing fluff. Web design for tradesmen that sounds like you, not like AI.
Local visibility on Google
Structured data for your trade, local landing pages for every town in your catchment area, Google Business Profile integration. So searches like 'electrician near me' or 'painter + city' end up as enquiries - not at the competitor's site. SEO for tradesmen done properly.
Capture enquiries instead of missing calls
Click-to-call, WhatsApp button, contact form with photo upload for damage assessment. Optional: online appointment booking with calendar sync. Customers book while you're on the job site.
Mobile first - because that's where customers search
Many local searches start on a smartphone. Load times under two seconds, thumb-friendly navigation, a large phone number in the sticky header. Ready on every device.
Legal basics built in
Tracking only after consent, cookie banner with opt-in, imprint page with chamber-of-trades or WKO data, privacy page. Legal texts and their licences are quoted separately. Optional: accessibility per the European Accessibility Act (in force since June 2025).
Maintain it yourself - or have us do it
Simple CMS for references, prices, team updates. No coding required. If you don't have time: we handle maintenance on retainer - updates, backups, new project images.
Our process
Workshop call (30 min)
Phone or on-site appointment. We listen: which services do you offer? Who are your favourite customers? Which jobs do you want more of - and which less? That conversation becomes the content structure. Free, no commitment.
Copy & design
We write all page copy; you give feedback in one revision round. Design progresses in parallel - calm, structured, trustworthy. You see the website before a line of code is written.
Development & local SEO
Fast build with clean structure, local search visibility, Google Business Profile setup and performance tuning until Core Web Vitals are green.
Launch & ongoing support
Go-live, Google Search Console connection, first review campaign. Optional retainer for monthly reports, new project entries, technical support. You stay on the job; we handle the digital side.

Do you really write all the copy?
Yes. You tell us about your shop, your services and your ideal customers in a 30-minute call. We then write all page copy - homepage, service pages, about, references, contact. You get two revision rounds to adjust tone of voice and technical terms. You don't have to write marketing copy, prompt ChatGPT or fill in templates.
How long until the tradesmen website goes live?
A standard tradesmen website with five to eight pages is usually live in three to five weeks. The pace depends on prompt feedback on our drafts and available imagery (or a scheduled photo shoot). Larger projects with online booking, multiple branches or integrations to trade software take six to ten weeks.
Do I need professional photos or are stock photos enough?
Real project photos are the strongest sales argument on a tradesmen website. Before/after comparisons, shots of the team on site and detail photos of clean work build more trust than any stock library. We recommend a half-day shoot with a local photographer or polishing your own smartphone shots if the quality is good enough.
Will the site work in rural areas with poor mobile signal?
Yes. We build with a strong focus on load time - typically under two seconds on a 3G connection. The site stays reachable even on weak connections. Images are auto-converted to modern formats and served at the right size for the device.
Do you build websites for a single tradesman or only for larger firms?
Both. We build for one-person shops and small teams as well as for larger firms. A sole tradesman usually needs five to eight pages: home, services, about, references, contact and a few local landing pages. Larger firms with several branches or a careers funnel get the same structure with more pages, and we plan that from the start.
Which trades and tradespeople do you build websites for?
We build tradesmen websites for electricians, painters and decorators, roofers, plumbers and heating engineers, carpenters and joiners, construction companies, timber frame carpenters, landscapers, and tilers and flooring fitters. Each trade has its own page with the services, search terms and enquiry paths that matter for that trade.
What sets alloq.digital apart from other web design agencies?
Three things: first, we write the copy ourselves - you don't get blank templates in your inbox. Second, we build the site like a software platform: fast, maintainable, with a clean code base instead of plugin sprawl. Third, we stay reachable after launch - on retainer or for one-off updates. We're a senior software studio, not an ad sales house.
Where are you active? Germany and Switzerland too?
alloq.digital is based in Tyrol (Austria) and serves trade businesses across DACH - Austria, Germany, Switzerland and South Tyrol. On-site meetings can usually be scheduled at short notice in Tyrol, Vorarlberg, Salzburg, Bavaria and Allgäu. For other regions we collaborate by video call, phone and email - works just as well in practice.
Does the copy need to be SEO-optimised?
We write all copy SEO-aware but readable. Your trade's main search terms - 'electrician Vienna', 'roofer Innsbruck', 'painter Salzburg' - flow naturally into headings, body copy and meta descriptions. Structured data (LocalBusiness schema) tells Google your hours, reviews and services directly. The result: better rankings without the typical keyword-stuffed feel.
