3 Tips To Attract New Construction Business Through Your Website

attract visitors to websiteActively hunting down new leads is all part of running a construction firm, but getting warm leads to come to you on their own will make your job a lot easier. By fine-tuning your website to attract new construction business, you can grow your firm without adding to your marketing workload.

  1. Direct Your Traffic – Design your site to guide visitors toward giving you their contact information. Make it easy for them to find essential information, such as your services, portfolio, and the market sectors you specialize in. For each page, consider what your visitor will want to know next and make sure that information and your contact information are easy to find. If you’re using a lead magnet, such as a white paper or helpful checklist, to attract new construction business, highlight that content on your homepage, in your sidebar, and at the end of your blog posts.
  2. Offer Live Chat – Live chat isn’t just for retail websites. Given all the complexities involved in planning a construction project, your visitors are bound to have questions. If they can’t get answers fast, they might just take the easy route of clicking over to your competitor’s site rather than calling you to ask. With a live chat window, your visitor can get their question answered quickly and you’ll have the valuable opportunity to engage them in a conversation and set up a phone meeting.
  3. Introduce Yourself Through Video – Especially if you target business people, such as property developers, some of your visitors will be short on time and not in the mood to read through a bunch of text. A short introductory video helps you reel them in and hold their attention while you give them an overview of what you do and how you stand out from the competition. Video also gives your visitor a chance to hear and see you “in person,” which helps break the ice and encourage them to give you a call.
