Websites and SEO for Australian tradies

Right now, the jobs you should be getting are going to someone with a better website.

When a customer searches for your trade, they call whoever shows up first. We make sure that is you.

Quick question — does your business show up when someone Googles your trade in your town?

✕ Your business does not appear on page 1.

This is what Google looks like in your area right now. Your competitors are on it. You're not. Every search that happens without you is a job going somewhere else.

The invisible problem

You're not losing work because you're bad at your trade.

You're losing it because when someone in your area searches your trade tonight, Google doesn't show them you. The job goes to whoever shows up first, not whoever does the best work.

  • 8 in 10 customers look on Google before they choose a tradie, long before they ever pick up the phone
  • 75% of those clicks go to the top three results. If you're not there, you don't exist
  • $0 of that work reaches you while your competitors show up and you don't

About Ironside

Built for the trades, by people who respect the work.

Ironside builds websites and SEO exclusively for Australian tradies. We do not build for restaurants, gyms, or startups. We understand how tradies win work and what turns a site that just sits there into one that brings the phone to life, and every project is treated like a job site: planned properly, built to last, and finished to a standard we are happy to put our name on.

Had a website for years that did nothing. Ironside rebuilt it and we were on page one within five weeks. The phone rings consistently now.

Facebook only 8 enquiries/week
★★★★★
Thought Facebook was enough until work dried up. Ironside showed me I was missing hundreds of local searches. Now the site brings in work on its own.
James T. Plumber, St Kilda
Referrals only 14 enquiries/month
★★★★★
When referrals slowed down I had nothing to fall back on. Ironside gave me a consistent pipeline within two months. I no longer depend on word of mouth.
Ryan K. Painter, Gold Coast
No online presence Fully booked in 6 weeks
★★★★★
Never had a website. Ironside built me one and it left me gutted I hadn't done it earlier. Paid for itself before the first month was up.
Dan W. Roofer, Rockingham
Losing jobs 3 new contracts/month
★★★★★
Kept losing work to larger outfits with better websites. Ironside built us something that put us on the same level. Three months in and we are winning contracts we never would have quoted on before.
Chris L. Carpenter, Central Coast
Ad-dependent 6x organic leads
★★★★★
We were spending too much on Facebook Ads with not enough to show for it. We needed a better solution for consistent organic leads and Ironside delivered. Well worth it.

FAQ

Questions tradies ask us.

How much does it cost?

Projects start at $1,500 for a one page site and go up depending on how much SEO and ongoing work you need. Every quote is fixed and agreed before we start, so you always know the number.

How long does it take to build?

Most websites are built and live within two to three weeks. SEO results follow from there, and our clients average their first new enquiry around the three week mark.

Do I need to do anything?

Very little. We have one short call to understand your trade and your area, then we handle the writing, building, and setup. You review a single draft and approve it. That is the extent of your involvement.

What if I already have a website?

That is common. We review what you have, keep anything worth keeping, and rebuild the rest so it actually performs. In most cases a tired existing site is holding your rankings back rather than helping them.

Will I actually rank on Google?

Ranking is the entire point of the work, not an afterthought. Everything we build - your site, your Google profile, your suburb and service pages - is engineered around one outcome: getting you in front of people searching for your trade, in your area, right now.

What happens if I want changes later?

Changes are handled quickly and at a fair rate. There are no lock-in contracts - if you want something updated, tweaked, or expanded, just reach out and we'll sort it.

Our promise

The 90 Day Guarantee.

If you are not seeing results within 90 days of your site going live, we keep working at no extra cost until you do. We carry the risk, not you, because we only succeed when your phone starts ringing.
