What actually breaks

Page title does not name the city they work in
on 13 of them.

We recorded every fault we could see on the 24 Aurora sites. The one that turns up most is page title does not name the city they work in — 13 of them. Next is no enquiry form anywhere on the site on 10, then copyright line years out of date on 9.

A site here that fixes page title does not name the city they work in alone is already ahead of 13 local competitors on that count. That is the whole argument for doing the dull parts first.

Questions

What people ask us.

How many renovation contractors are there in Aurora?

25 listings, of which 1 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 24 are either missing a site, running a broken one, or running one with at least one fault we could see from outside.

How many Google reviews do I need to compete in Aurora?

To be average in Aurora you need 12. To be in the top quarter you need more than 20. To be visible next to the busiest renovation contractor here you would need 179, which took them years. 18 of the 25 already hold a 4.9 rating, so the rating is not what separates them.

What does a website for a renovation contractor in Aurora cost?

Between $590 and $3,900 depending on the size of the practice and how many services need their own page, paid after the site is built and you have seen it. Hosting, edits, your Google Business Profile and ongoing SEO run $129 to $990 a month, cancellable any month.

you have a problem.

Most people asking about a rebuild do not need one. The free check opens your site, looks at how it behaves on a phone, whether it is secure and how old the page is, and tells you which of those apply to you.
