Goals

• Make it effortless to call or request service from a phone.
• Build instant trust with real photos, service badges, and reviews.
• Organize dozens of handyman services without overwhelming users.
• Showcase before/after work to prove quality.
• Keep the stack fast, secure, and easy for the owner to update.

Mobile-first conversion

• Sticky top actions: Call Now and Get a Quote always within thumb reach.
• Short, no-friction form (name, location, job type, callback).
• Clear progress cues and confirmation so users know their request went through.

Trust signals

• “Business verified by Google,” service guarantees, and years-in-business highlights.
• Real photography and job snapshots (not generic stock) to build credibility.
• Short testimonials and star-rating callouts near CTAs.

Information architecture

• Clean navigation: Assembly & Installation, Repairs & Maintenance, Renovations, Residential & Commercial.
• Modular service cards with icons, quick descriptions, and “Get a Quote” links.
• FAQ sections for pricing expectations, timelines, and warranty basics.

Local SEO

• City/area mentions written naturally in copy (no keyword stuffing).
• Internal linking between related services (e.g., drywall repair → painting).
• Blog section for quick tips and seasonal promos (e.g., seniors/retirees 10% off).

Visual design

• Color: dependable navy + a high-visibility accent for CTAs.
• Type: bold, readable headings with neutral body copy for long pages.
• Components: testimonial slider, icon cards, process steps, gallery grid.

Build

• Reusable Gutenberg patterns for services, FAQs, promos, and galleries, so the owner can add pages without breaking the design.
• Image optimization, lazy loading, and clean code for fast Core Web Vitals.
• Structured content ready for schema (services, FAQs) when needed.

Hosting and security

• SSL, CDN, caching, and daily offsite backups.
• Uptime monitoring and security hardening (firewall, limited login attempts).
• Staging updates so plugin/core changes never risk the live site.

Copy

Headlines speak directly to homeowners and small businesses: “San Antonio handyman,” “Trusted, professional, and on-time,” and “Reliable solutions for all your home needs.” Microcopy under CTAs sets expectations (“We’ll text back with ETA” or “Get a same-day quote when available”), which reduces friction and increases completed forms.

• Descriptive alt text on project photos.
• Stable layout (reduced CLS) and fast LCP through image compression and critical CSS.

• Optional call tracking ready if they want deeper channel attribution.
