If you’re not online, you’re invisible. A professional website is the foundation of your digital presence—and it’s essential for attracting leads, building trust, and scaling your business. At Contractor Back Office, we help contractors establish a strong online presence, while Wexford Insurance ensures your growing visibility is protected.

Why a Website Matters for Contractors

Your website is more than a digital business card—it’s your 24/7 sales tool. A well-built contractor website helps you:

  • Showcase your work and expertise

  • Rank on Google for local searches

  • Convert visitors into paying clients

  • Support ad campaigns and SEO strategies

  • Answer client questions automatically

Whether you're a roofer, plumber, electrician, or general contractor, your website should reflect your professionalism and make it easy for clients to reach you.


Common Website Mistakes Contractors Make

Many contractors struggle with their online presence due to:

1. Outdated or Non-Mobile-Friendly Designs

Most clients search from their phones. If your site isn’t mobile-friendly, you’re losing leads.

2. Poor SEO Optimization

Without proper keywords and structure, your site won’t show up in local search results.

3. Lack of Clear Service Pages

Clients need to know exactly what you offer—and where.

4. No Lead Capture Tools

Missing contact forms or tracking tools means missed opportunities.
