The real problem

Why trade businesses across Victoria are losing work online — and how to fix it

  • Broken on mobile

    Over 70% of people search for tradies on their phone. A site that doesn't work on mobile loses the job before the first call.

  • No clear way to get a quote

    If someone can't find your number or submit a quick form in under 10 seconds, they've already moved on to a competitor.

  • Looks less credible than your competitors

    People judge your business by your website before they ever call. An outdated site costs you jobs before you know they existed.

  • No gallery of your work

    Customers want proof before they trust you. No photos of your work means no trust, and no trust means no call.

75%

of people judge a business's credibility by its website design before reading a single word.

3 sec

That's how long a visitor decides whether to stay or leave. First impressions decide whether you get the call.

#1

Reason trade businesses lose online enquiries — a website that doesn't inspire trust or make it easy to get in touch.

Why Setout Digital

Why Victoria's tradies choose Setout Digital.

48 hours, not 8 weeks

Agencies make you wait months before showing you a single page. We deliver a finished, live website within 48 hours. You see it, you approve it, it's live — and you're already winning more work.

🔨

Trade businesses only

We don't build sites for hairdressers, cafes and lawyers too. We focus exclusively on trade businesses — so our layouts, copy and structure are built specifically for what your customers need to see before they call you.

💰

You see it before paying in full

We build your site, show it to you live, and only ask for the final 50% once you've approved it. Zero risk. No paying for something you don't love. That's how confident we are in our work.

📍

Local Victorian. Real person.

Based in Victoria. Not an offshore agency or a faceless ticket system. You get a direct line to the person building your site — someone who actually knows your market, your area, and your trade.

FAQ

Tradie website FAQs — common questions, straight answers.

No. We gather what we need from your existing website, Google Business listing, Instagram or Facebook page. If you want to supply your own job photos, even better — but we can work with what's already online to get you started immediately.

No problem. We'll help you choose and register the right domain for your business. It's a quick process and we handle it all — usually done in under 15 minutes.

50% upfront to begin, and the remaining 50% once you've seen and approved the finished site. We accept direct bank transfer or credit card. No surprises, no hidden fees.

Yes — every site includes a simple editor. No coding needed. Or if you'd rather not deal with it at all, our $299/month maintenance add-on handles all updates for you automatically.

Renewal is straightforward — typically around $120–$200/year. We'll remind you before it's due and handle the renewal for you if you'd prefer. No nasty surprises.

Fair question. The difference is simple — we show you a working, live website before you pay the final 50%. You see it, you approve it, then you pay. There's no risk of paying for something you don't love. We put the work in first, then you decide.

Yes — we work with trade businesses across Melbourne, Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Shepparton, Warrnambool and regional Victoria. If you're a tradie anywhere in Victoria, we can build you a professional website fast.
