Your domain name is an address for your website, unique to your business. It’s what your customers will type into the search bar to find you online.
Make sure to register on a domain hosting server and then add it to your Tradify Instant Website. Another option is to host your Instant Website on our subdomain for free.
Upload a plumbing logo that people won’t forget. Whatever you choose should represent who you are and what your company is best at.

Then, simply upload it to your Instant Website.
When it comes to new customer enquiries, you’re probably answering the same questions over and over again: what plumbing services you offer, how to get a quote, where you’re located and when you’re available. So, lay it out clearly on your website with concise descriptions. This way you won’t have to keep repeating yourself!
Make sure your descriptions:
When someone needs a plumber in your area, you want to make sure customers find your website first. Ranking near the top of Google’s search results has nothing to do with how long you’ve been in business.
Link your website to your social media, register with Google Business and add reviews or testimonials. These steps will boost your website ranking and help you become the number-one local plumbing business online.
Google Business is the online equivalent of a phonebook. It’s an essential tool that online users have come to expect and a great way for people searching for ‘plumbers near me’ to discover your key business information – phone number, business hours, website.
If you're not sure how to register with Google Business, here's how to do it.
Most people are on the go, using their phones to search for what they need when they need it. That’s why it’s important your website looks and works great on every device. Luckily, Tradify’s Instant Website is mobile-responsive by default, so you don’t have to worry about it.
Having a good enquiries system is one great way to set yourself up for success and reduce the amount of time in the office. With Tradify’s Instant Website, you can seamlessly link your job enquiries with your Tradify account. This means that Tradify will pull enquiries from your website and send out automated email responses while you’re on the job, so you never miss anything or forget to do it yourself.
Customers trust real experiences more than any other form of marketing. By including good testimonials and reviews, you can show off all your best plumbing work in an extremely palatable way. Tradify’s Instant Website has the option to include a testimonial section.
Every plumbing business with ambitions to grow requires a good website. If you’re not online, do you even exist? Sounds dramatic, but it’s what customers have come to expect. Luckily, it’s easier than ever to build your own with Tradify’s Instant Website. That way, customers can find and contact you around the clock.
