Contractor Website Plan
Built with the free planner at manningwebcompany.com/websites/website-planner/ - Manning Web Company, Vancouver BC
Nothing here is saved or sent anywhere. Refresh the page and the plan is gone, so copy or print it before you leave. Changing your answers rebuilds the plan and replaces any edits.
Whatever pages you end up with, these are the working parts that turn visitors into phone calls. Every item here is standard in our builds.
Want this built right, schema and all? That's what we do.
And the "photos, continuously added" part? That is a service too: you send us job photos, we keep your gallery, service pages, and schema growing every month.
Open your site in another tab and hold it up against this plan. How many of these pages actually exist? Is the schema there? Are project photos accumulating, or is the gallery from 2021?
Not sure what is under the hood? Run any page through our free Landing Page Auditor - start with your homepage. It reads the code and reports back in plain language.
Want us to do this comparison properly? A site review call takes 20 minutes: your site, this plan, and the gaps between them, in plain language.
Design gets the credit, but structure does the ranking. Here is what the planner is actually doing.
Search "water heater replacement Burnaby" and Google goes looking for a page about exactly that. If your whole business lives on one homepage, that single page is competing for every job you do - and winning almost none. One page per service gives Google something to rank for each one.
Schema markup is a labelling layer in your site's code. LocalBusiness schema says who and where you are. Service schema says what you do. FAQPage schema marks up your answers - the same answers Google's AI results like to quote. Visitors never see it. Google reads all of it.
You show up in your home city without trying. The next city over is a fight, and a homepage that says "serving the Lower Mainland" does not win it. A page for your top service in that city, with real local jobs on it, does. That is why the planner asks where you work.
Copy the plan and it reads like instructions: the pages, the order, and the checklist of elements every page needs. Hand it to any web designer and you will get a sharper quote, because they know exactly what to build. Hand it to us and we also install the parts a page list cannot show: the schema on every page, the tracking behind every call and form fill, and a photo pipeline that keeps the gallery and service pages growing after launch. That last part matters most - a contractor site is never finished. It accumulates proof.
Straight answers about pages, schema, and what happens to your plan.
Yes, if you want to rank for it. Google matches searches to pages, not to businesses. A page about water heater installation can rank for water heater searches. A homepage that mentions ten services in one paragraph usually ranks for none of them.
Labels in your site's code that tell Google what things mean: this is our business name, this is a service we offer, this is an FAQ answer. Visitors never see it, but Google reads it. Google can't rank you for a service it doesn't know you provide, and schema takes the guessing out.
One for each city you genuinely serve and want more work from. Two to six is typical. Do not paste the same text with the city name swapped - Google notices, and so do homeowners. Each page needs real local proof: jobs done there, photos, and reviews from that area.
Absolutely, it is yours. Copy it or print it and build on any platform you like. Fair warning: the page list is the easy half. Schema, page speed, tracking, and the discipline of adding project photos month after month are where most do-it-yourself builds stall. That is the half we sell.
No. Nothing you type is saved or sent anywhere - no account, no email, no database. When you close or refresh the tab your plan is gone, so copy it or print it before you leave.
We build contractor websites exactly this way: one page per service, schema on all of it, and a photo pipeline that keeps the site growing after launch. Built to rank, and built to be advertised on.
