Services

Google Ads for Trade Businesses image
Google Ads for Trade Businesses

Google Ads puts you in front of clients who are ready to book, on the day they start looking. Your ads appear when someone in your area searches for the services you want, and the searches that spend without producing jobs are excluded. Reporting shows what each enquiry costs rather than how many people saw it, so you can raise spend in a quiet month and pull back when the schedule is full. The account and its data stay yours.

Search engine optimisation earns a consistent share of the work in your area without paying for each enquiry. The work covers your Google Business Profile, a page for every service and location you cover, the technical foundations behind how those pages rank, and the review profile clients read before calling. Progress is measured against the searches that produce jobs, not traffic totals. It builds over months rather than weeks, and keeps returning work in the periods you spend nothing on ads.

Custom Website Development for Australian Trade Businesses

Most trade businesses outgrow their first website years before they replace it. We design and build the replacement around the services you want more of, the projects worth showing, and the questions clients ask before they commit. Every page is written with purpose. Your website loads as fast on a phone as on a desktop, and sends enquiries straight to your team. The website, the domain and the content remain yours.

Our Team

Lachlan

Director

I run the strategy side of the business. That means I'm across how we position each client, the marketing plan we build for them, and the standard everything is held to before it goes out. I handle most of the client communication myself, because the relationship matters as much as the results, and I'd rather have those conversations directly than hand them off.

Dane

SEO specialist

Owns the SEO side of a project: what you should be ranking for, which pages need to exist, and what is holding the current ones back. Starts from keyword and competitor data for your trade in your area rather than a generic checklist, then works through the Google Business Profile, the service and location pages, the technical foundations behind how they rank, and the review profile clients read before calling. Reports against the searches that produce jobs rather than traffic totals, and will say plainly when a target is not worth chasing.

Raj

Google Ads specialist

Runs the advertising accounts day to day. Builds the campaign structure, writes the ads, and works through the search terms every week so budget goes to the searches that book work rather than the ones that only look busy. Sets up conversion and call tracking so every enquiry can be traced back to what produced it, and moves bids and budgets as the schedule fills or quietens. The account stays in your name throughout, so the history and the data remain yours.

Tristan

Website developer

Builds every site KINGTRADIE ships, from the first page through to launch and the maintenance that follows. Handles the technical side of a launch: moving the domain, redirecting the old pages so existing rankings are not lost, setting up tracking, and wiring the forms so enquiries reach your team rather than sitting in an inbox. Every build starts from your goal, your services and your completed work, not a template.

    Moral Service website redesign

    Lachlan from King Tradie is the top G of tradie website design, development, and management. I’ve worked with many website agencies and individuals, and no one comes close to Lachlan’s attention to detail and high-end quality. He doesn’t waste your time asking the same questions; in fact, he did his own research and made the onboarding and entire website development process easy. I normally get myself too involved in projects, but I literally only had to show up for the photography session—Lachlan handled the rest. If you want to skip the time and money wasters, go with King Tradie.

FAQ

We build websites and run Google Ads and SEO for Australian trade businesses. That is the whole business. We do not take on retail, hospitality or professional services, so the work is shaped by what generates enquiries for trades rather than adapted from another industry.
Established trade businesses with staff on the payroll, across both residential and commercial work. Plumbing, electrical, HVAC, construction and the trades around them. Businesses at this size usually have a website and a listing or two already, and are after a larger share of the work in their area rather than a first web presence.
Yes. KINGTRADIE is a Registered partner in the Simpro Group Partner Network, covering both Simpro and AroFlo. 
Websites start at $3,990 as a one-off build. SEO retainers start at $1,250 a month and Google Ads management at $1,400 a month, with a higher tier for businesses covering several services or service areas. Advertising spend is separate and paid directly to Google on your own account.
No. Retainers run month to month with 30 days notice either way. We do ask you to give SEO three months before judging it, because meaningful movement takes that long, but that is an expectation we set at the start rather than a term you are held to.
You do. The website, the domain and the content are yours. Google Ads runs in your own account with spend on your own card, so the campaign history and conversion data stay with you. If you ever move on, nothing needs to be rebuilt or handed back.
Google Ads can produce enquiries within the first few weeks of a campaign going live, because it buys visibility that already exists. SEO works on a longer horizon, with movement usually visible by the second or third month and the larger benefit arriving after that. We will not put a date on a specific ranking, because that depends on Google and on who else is competing in your area.
KINGTRADIE is based on the Gold Coast, Queensland, and works with trade businesses across Australia. The work is done remotely, so location has not been a constraint for clients in other states.
