A free SEO website that wins the jobs Checkatrade is taking from you.
Cheaper trades are outranking you on Google. Checkatrade and Bark take a fee on every lead. Your old site looks fine but the phone barely rings. We fix that with a free 5-day SEO website, £197/mo + VAT, and a 90-day qualified-lead guarantee in writing.
- You stop competing with Checkatrade and start owning your area's searches
- You see exactly which keyword and page drove every phone call
- You get one new service-area page added every month
- You keep the site, the domain, and the code from day one
- You get a written 90-day lead guarantee or we work for free until the lead arrives
How does a free trade website actually work?
A free trade website built by Loudachris costs £0 upfront and £197/month + VAT (12-month plan) for hosting plus SEO bundled. We build the site in 5 working days. The 90-day lead guarantee is in writing: first qualified lead within 90 days, or we keep working at no cost. Most builds rank top 10 on Google for their primary trade plus city keyword (think plumber Croydon, electrician Wimbledon, builder Manchester) within 45 days.
We build for the searches that turn into phone calls, not for awards.
Three reasons most trade websites don't get the phone ringing.
Your old site is built on a template that can't rank. Wix, GoDaddy, Squarespace templates skip the schema markup, page structure, and Google Business Profile alignment that get you onto page one. Your competitors who paid £4,500 for a custom site look the same as you on Google. Neither of you ranks.
You're paying a margin to Checkatrade and Bark on every lead. Or you're spending £1,200+ a month on Google Ads with no visibility into which clicks turn into calls. The work comes in but the margin is gone before you start. You're running faster to stand still.
You can't see what's broken. No call tracking. No form analytics. No idea which Google search drove the one job you booked this week. You can't fix what you can't measure, and your last agency never showed you any data.
Built around how people in the UK find tradesmen.
Pages built to rank, not pages built to look pretty
Schema markup, Google Business Profile alignment, suburb-level coverage, and on-page SEO done in the first 5 days. The basics most trade sites skip.
Call tracking on every page
Every inbound call is recorded against the keyword and page that drove it. You finally see what's working and what isn't.
Borough and town coverage that compounds
Each town or borough you serve gets a dedicated page over the year as part of monthly content. Your coverage map grows month after month.
Gas Safe, NICEIC, FMB credentials displayed correctly
Trust badges, registration numbers, and accreditation logos placed where Google's helpful-content guidelines and your customers expect them.
You own everything from day one
Domain, hosting credentials, Google Analytics, Search Console, the lot. If you ever leave us, you walk with the site intact.

What life looks like 90 days in.
By month three, your phone is ringing from organic Google traffic. You can see which page and which keyword is driving the calls. The Checkatrade subscription you've been resenting is one quote away from being cancelled.
You stop shouting price into a saturated marketplace and start being the obvious choice in the searches that matter for your area.
