BEFORE YOU
SPEND A DIME.
10 free things to do before you spend money on a website.
Pick two or three you can knock out today. Skip anything you’ve already handled. You don’t need all ten finished before talking to us.
01
Choose the next move
What should a good visitor do after they understand your business?
- Choose one: call, book, visit, buy or request a quote.
- Write down the phone number or link they should use.
Example: “See our fence work, then request an estimate.”
02
Check your Google Business Profile
For eligible local businesses, it can help people find accurate information in Search and Maps.
- Claim or verify the profile if your business is eligible.
- Check your category, phone, hours and website.
- If customers do not visit your address, hide it and set your service area.
Online-only businesses are not eligible. Google guidance: eligibility · profile details and service areas
03
Check the basics everywhere
A customer should get the same answer wherever they find you.
- Confirm your phone, hours and location or service area.
- Fix any old details on the profiles you still use.
Start with Google and the one or two places your customers already use. You do not need a profile everywhere.
04
Make a plain service list
Clear names beat broad phrases that could mean anything.
- List the three services or products you most want to sell.
- Add the town, region or customer each one is for.
“Residential fencing and gate repair in Clark County” gives a writer more to work with than “property solutions.”
05
Write down the questions you always answer
Those questions often belong on the website.
- Write the top three things customers ask before they buy.
- Add one short, honest answer to each.
Think availability, service area, process, fit or what happens after someone calls.
06
Gather real photos
Your work, people and place will tell the story better than generic stock.
- Put 10–20 useful photos in one folder.
- Include the team, space, products or finished work.
- Confirm you can use them and the people shown are okay with it.
Phone photos are useful. We can see what is already strong and what might be worth shooting properly.
07
Find your logo and any brand bits
Do not worry about making a polished brand package first.
- Find the cleanest logo file you have.
- Save any colors, signs, menus or packaging that still feel like you.
Not sure which file is usable? Send the whole folder. We can sort it out.
08
Collect a little proof
Specific work and honest customer feedback help people trust what they are seeing.
- Save links to your best genuine reviews.
- Choose two or three projects, products or results to show.
Never pay or trade for Google reviews, and do not ask only the customers you expect to praise you. Review tips · Google policy
09
Know where your domain login is
If you already own a web address, keep it within reach.
- Find the company where the domain is registered.
- Make sure the business can access the account and recovery email.
Keep the password in your password manager, not on this checklist.
10
Try the customer route yourself
The next step should work before a new website sends more people toward it.
- Call your number or open your booking and quote links on a phone.
- Decide who sees the message and replies.
If something breaks, write it down. That is useful project information, not homework you failed.
