Websites and Google profiles for service businesses
Be the one they find. And call.
Leadtide builds your website and keeps your Google Business Profile working, so people searching for what you do find you first and get in touch.
How findable are you?
Five quick questions about your business.
- Your website works well on a phone
- Services and prices are easy to find

Everything a customer checks before they call.
Most people search on their phone, look at your Google listing, glance at your website, then decide. Leadtide looks after all three.
A website built to get enquiries.
Clear, fast and made for phones first. It says what you do, where you work and how to get in touch, in the first few seconds.
- 3 to 5 pages, written for you in plain English
- Call and book buttons that work in one tap
- Service and area pages set up so Google can read them
- Contact form, secure hosting and your own domain
- Two rounds of changes included
A Google profile that shows up and gets tapped.
For local searches, your Google Business Profile is often seen before your website. A complete, active profile gives people a reason to choose you.
- Profile set up or cleaned up: categories, services, hours
- Photos chosen and added so the listing looks alive
- Regular posts about offers, availability and your work
- A simple message you can send to ask for reviews
Looked after, every month.
A website and profile left alone go stale. On a monthly plan, I keep them working and send you a short report showing how people found you.
- Hosting, security updates and backups
- Small changes whenever you need them
- Fresh Google posts and a new page each month (growth plan)
- A one-page report in plain English, every month

About
One person. Straight answers.
I'm Tom, and Leadtide is my business. I'm based in Chelmsford, Essex, and work with service businesses across the UK: salons, clinics, cleaners, trades, instructors and anyone whose customers find them by searching.
Alongside Leadtide I work as a swimming teacher and lifeguard, where being reliable and explaining things clearly is the whole job. I run Leadtide the same way. Leadtide is new and deliberately small, so you get my full attention, not a junior or an account manager.
Reply within a working day
Every email answered by me, usually much sooner.
Fixed price, in writing
You know the full cost before any work starts. No surprise invoices.
You own everything
Your domain, your website and your Google profile stay yours if you ever leave.
Plain English
No jargon, no pressure. If something isn't worth doing, I'll tell you.
Questions
Good to know.
Do I need to be in Essex?
No. Everything can be done by phone, email and video call, so I work with businesses anywhere in the UK.
How long does it take?
About 10 working days once I have your details and photos. A Google profile boost usually takes a few days.
I already have a website. Can you help?
Yes. The free audit will show whether it makes more sense to improve what you have or start fresh. I'll recommend the cheaper option if it does the job.
What do I need to give you?
Your logo if you have one, some photos of your work, a list of your services and access to your Google Business Profile. I'll send a short form so nothing gets missed.
Who owns the website?
You do. Your domain is registered in your name, and if you ever leave, I'll hand everything over.
Can you guarantee more customers?
No one honestly can. What I can do is fix the things that stop people contacting you, and show you each month how many people found you and got in touch.
