— Free Website Review

Find out exactly why your website isn't bringing in enquiries

A free, plain-English website review from someone who builds and ranks sites for service businesses for a living. Real eyes on your site and actionable advice on what to fix first.

— Why this matters

A good-looking website that doesn't bring in work is costing you money every month

Most business owners only find out something's wrong when the enquiries dry up. By then you've spent months wondering whether it's the market, the season, or just bad luck — when usually it's something on the site that's quietly turning people away or keeping you invisible on Google.

You've probably already run one of the free online scanners. They spit out a score and a wall of red errors — missing alt tags, this, that — and leave you exactly where you started: knowing something's wrong, with no idea which bits actually matter or what to do about them.

That's the gap this review fills. I'm not a tool that grades 100 data points in twenty seconds. I look at your site the way a potential customer does, then the way Google does, and I tell you the handful of things that are actually holding back your enquiries — in English, with a clear next step for each.

What the review covers

I go through your whole site by hand and report back on four things that decide whether it brings you work:

01

Can Google find you and understand what you do?

Whether your pages are properly indexed, whether Google actually knows what services you offer and the areas you cover, how you're showing up locally (Google Business Profile, maps, "near me" searches), and whether the technical groundwork — schema, sitemaps, structure — is doing its job or quietly missing.

02

Are the right people landing on your site at all?

Where you currently rank for the terms your customers actually search, the gaps where you should be visible and aren't, and an honest read on whether your real problem is traffic volume or something further down the funnel. (For most service businesses, it's traffic — and that's fixable.)

03

Does your site turn visitors into enquiries?

Whether the path to contacting you is obvious, whether your pages answer the only question a prospect cares about — "why you?" — and whether your strongest pages are pulling their weight or leaking interested people. The best-ranking site in the world is worthless if visitors don't act.

04

Is anything actively broken?

The speed problems, mobile issues, broken links and technical faults that frustrate visitors and drag down rankings — flagged by severity, so you fix what matters first and ignore what doesn't.

You come away knowing precisely what's wrong, why it's costing you, and what to do about it.

Simple, free, no obligation

Here's how the review works:

01

You book a slot.

Pick a time and tell me your website address and what's been bugging you about it.

02

I review your site by hand.

Not a scheduled scan — actual time spent going through it properly, the way I would for a paying client.

03

You get a clear, prioritised action list.

The real issues, in order of impact, each with a plain-English explanation of why it matters and what fixing it involves. Yours to keep.

04

You decide what to do with it.

Plenty of the fixes you can do yourself — and I'll tell you which. Where you'd rather I handled it, I'll give you a straight quote. No pressure either way; the review stands on its own.

Common questions about the website review

It's genuinely free, and there's no catch. It's how I'd rather introduce myself than with a sales pitch — you see how I think, I see whether your site's the kind of thing I can help with. Plenty of people take the action list and run with it themselves, and that's completely fine.

Stop guessing why your site isn't working

Twenty minutes of someone who knows what they're looking at beats another month of wondering. Book your free review and find out exactly where you stand.
