Are you looking for an experienced partner to build a website for your craft business? Since 2010, I have been developing WordPress websites for craft businesses across all trades \u2013 from joinery and steel construction to electrical installation. I take care of the concept, web design, technical implementation, hosting and ongoing support \u2013 so that you can focus on your core business.<\/p>\n\n\n\nNon-binding enquiry<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why a professional website is so important for your trade business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Anyone looking for a trade business today almost always starts online. Your website decides in just a few seconds whether a potential customer contacts you or clicks on to the next company. A good tradesman website is more than just a digital business card - it shows the quality of your work, creates trust and makes it easy for prospective customers to take the first step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Build trust and demonstrate quality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whether you are a carpenter, metalworker, electrician or painter - choosing a craftsman's business is a matter of trust. An attractively designed website with professional photos of your projects, a friendly team presentation and clear information about your services conveys expertise and creates a personal connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Picture galleries with completed projects are particularly effective. Before-and-after shots, detailed photos of precision craftsmanship and insights into your workshop or construction sites show potential customers what they can expect from you - more convincingly than any advert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gain new customers via Google<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A modern tradesman\u2019s website that is optimised for search engines will rank higher in relevant search queries such as \u201ecarpenter in Starnberg\u201c or \u201eelectrician near me\u201c. Targeted search engine optimisation (SEO) ensures that your business appears in local search results \u2013 exactly where potential customers are actually looking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, positive customer reviews and a well-maintained Google company profile strengthen the trust and visibility of your business online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The content of your website is created through dialogue \u2013 your specialist knowledge, my experience and AI-assisted drafting combine to produce compelling and lasting copy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attracting skilled labour - your company as an attractive employer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The shortage of skilled labour in the skilled trades makes employee recruitment a key challenge. Your website can help decisively here: Show what characterises you as an employer - a strong team, modern equipment, further training opportunities and a good working atmosphere. A highly visible careers page with specific job vacancies and the option to apply quickly online makes it easy for applicants to take the first step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Online enquiries and making appointments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Today's customers expect to be able to contact you easily - around the clock, not just during your office hours. A well-designed contact form, a call-back request function or a simple enquiry tool for quotations takes the pressure off your office and ensures that no enquiry is lost. We integrate the right solution directly into your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selling products and services directly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another advantage of a modern website is the ability to offer products and services directly online. With an integrated WooCommerce shop, you can expand your customer base and tap into new sources of income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What can be sold via a craftsman webshop?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Customised products such as furniture, metalwork or wooden goods are just as suitable for online sales as standard products, accessories or spare parts from your range. Services can also be booked online - such as maintenance contracts, repair orders or consultation appointments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why WooCommerce?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

WooCommerce is the world's most widely used e-commerce solution for WordPress. The platform is flexible, scalable and can be seamlessly integrated into your existing website. You retain full control over your data - all processes run exclusively on your own server, not with a third-party provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secure payment processing and simple administration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A professionally set up shop offers your customers various payment methods - from credit card and PayPal to invoice. You manage orders, stock levels and customer data via a clear dashboard, which we customise to your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFind out more about online shop solutions<\/a>\n\n\n\n

What makes a good craftsman website<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Responsive design for smartphone and tablet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Over 60 % of visits to tradespeople's websites are made from mobile devices - often directly from the construction site or while travelling. Our websites are responsive from the ground up and offer just as good a user experience on smartphones and tablets as on desktops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GDPR-compliant and legally compliant<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation also apply to craft businesses. We rely on GDPR-compliant solutions \u2013 from privacy policies and cookie consent management to the secure processing of contact enquiries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Search engine optimised right from the start<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

SEO isn\u2019t just an add-on; it\u2019s an integral part of our work. Right from the design stage, I ensure a search engine-friendly site structure, descriptive URLs, optimised meta data and fast loading times. This means your tradesman\u2019s website is ideally positioned to be found on Google from day one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accessibility according to BFSG \/ WCAG<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Since 2025, the German Accessibility Improvement Act (BFSG) has obliged more and more companies to ensure digital accessibility. We develop websites that meet the requirements of the BFSG and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) - with sufficient contrast, keyboard operability, alternative texts and a clear navigation structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our all-round service for craft businesses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I know that small businesses often have little time to maintain their websites as part of their day-to-day operations. That\u2019s why I offer a comprehensive service that takes all the work off your hands:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
