Bricklayer website draft 1

A draft I built as a proposal, not a customer project. Here you can see what the front page contains and the choices I made.

The starting point

What the front page has to do

There is no customer brief behind this draft, so I am not describing a challenge from a company. That would be something I made up.

The task is the same one I set for all my front pages: show within a few seconds what the company does, and make it easy to get in touch.

Not all of them are customers.

Most of the sites were built as proposals for businesses I have contacted – exactly as I would build one for you. It is the work you are looking at, not a customer list.

Choices

What I chose

  1. Phone button in the header
  2. Two buttons in the hero (call / describe your job)
  3. Keywords about establishment, trade association and local area

Shall I build one for you?

I build the draft first. You see it before you pay.
