It reads as two things at once, trades and home services and agencies and studios, and neither wins. 5 changes would make it plainer.
Trades and home servicesLevel with agencies and studios.
Its pages read as two kinds of work at once as Trades and home services. An assistant matches a site to a question by what its pages plainly say.
On pavingexpert.com, rewrite the home page title and its first sentence to say plainly what the business does, for whom and where, so the site reads as Trades and home services. Keep the title under 60 characters and lead with the service, not the name.
The title and the first heading share no word that says what the site does: “Homepage” and “The web’s most comprehensive guide to paving, drainage and hard-landscaping techniques used in Britain and Ireland”.
On pavingexpert.com, give the home page one first heading (h1) that says, in a reader's words, what its title says the site is: Trades and home services.
The home page has no description, so a search result and an assistant make one up from the page.
On pavingexpert.com, write the home page a meta description of one or two sentences, 50 to 160 characters: what the business does, for whom, and where.
Its home page declares no business or organization type, so a machine has to guess what it is.
On pavingexpert.com, add JSON-LD to the home page declaring the most particular schema.org type for the business (one that fits Trades and home services), with its name, address, phone and sameAs links to its own profiles.
It reads close to Agencies and studios as well as Trades and home services. Mixed on one page, neither reads plainly.
On pavingexpert.com, find where the site mixes Trades and home services with Agencies and studios, and give each its own page, linked from the home page, so each page is about one thing.
mttr reads the site again and says how it reads now.
An estimate made by mttr against 16 lines of work, from its home page before any script runs. It is not what any assistant says about the site. Rethink the direction with us.
