Where to start

What is the website not doing for you?

Owners of Huddersfield trade, manufacturing and B2B firms tend to arrive with one of three complaints. Pick the one that sounds like yours and you will get a proper answer first, then the work we would do about it.

Find you. Trust you. Choose you.

The three jobs a Huddersfield business website has to do

Being found, being believed and being chosen are separate jobs, and a site that only looks good has done none of them. This is how the work splits across the three, and what goes into each.

Find you

Found for the work you want

A fabricator in Lockwood and a roofer in Holmfirth are searched for in different words, so the pages, the headings and the wording are planned around the searches that bring the right jobs, on Google, in the map listings and in AI answers.

  • Keyword research
  • Service pages
  • Location pages
  • Local SEO
  • Google Business Profile
  • Website content
  • AI search optimisation
  • GEO
Trust you

Believed by the people checking you out

Before a buyer rings, they look for evidence: the jobs you have finished, the faces on the team, the reviews with real names on them. We shoot the projects, fly the drone and write the case studies, so the site carries proof that is yours.

  • Project photography
  • Drone footage
  • Video case studies
  • Written case studies
  • Google reviews
  • Accreditations
  • Client logos
  • Team profiles
Choose you

Chosen when they are ready

The right visitor should never have to hunt for the next step. Clear messaging on every page, a short enquiry form, a number that gets answered and tracking behind it all, so you can see which pages earn the work.

  • Messaging
  • Calls to action

Websites for Huddersfield trades and the contractors next door

A heating engineer in Huddersfield, a brickwork contractor in Brighouse and a commercial flooring firm in Hipperholme, with what each website had to do and what changed.

Dolphin Heating

Business
Fay Dolphin’s gas and heating business in Huddersfield. One van, a Gas Safe registered engineer and more than 25 years in the trade.
Problem
A good share of Fay’s customers specifically want a female gas engineer, and a standard heating website with a list of boiler brands would have hidden the one thing that makes people pick up the phone.
Work
Website, positioning, SEO and AI search visibility, all built around the words people actually type into Google when they are looking for her.

Number one on Google for female gas engineer Huddersfield, and named in the AI answer when people ask the same thing.

“David created me a new website. He was easy to talk to and understood exactly what I wanted. I was very impressed with his knowledge and he was always on hand if I had any questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend David and Halizona. Excellent service.”

Bond Brickwork

Business
Brickwork and masonry contractors in Brighouse, HD6, supplying the national housebuilders on major residential developments across Yorkshire.
Problem
The buyers are developers and main contractors, and they want to see completed sites, capacity and capability before a brickwork subcontractor makes the tender list. The website has to carry that evidence and keep carrying it as the sites are finished.
Work
Website, marketing channels and business systems, designed, built and managed by Halizona as long-term marketing partner, with the search work running since 2018.

At the top of Google for the commercial brickwork searches that matter to the business, and recommended by AI search.

Standeven Flooring

Business
A commercial flooring contractor established in 2003 at Hipperholme, between Halifax and Brighouse, with installation teams fitting stores and offices nationwide.
Problem
Retailers and main contractors comparing flooring subcontractors judge on the size of the jobs already done, so the website had to put the completed stores and offices in front of them before anything else.
Work
We redeveloped the website around finished projects and have kept it fed since: photography and video shot on site as the jobs happen, ongoing content and SEO.

A presence that matches the scale of the contracts, and showing jobs like the M&S Food store in Pudsey has helped win more large ones.

“Halizona have done a great job on our recent website update, providing great support as well as excellent on-site video footage and social media posts. Highly recommend Dave and the team.”

About Halizona

Websites from a marketing company, a short drive from Huddersfield

Halizona is a Yorkshire marketing company based in Halifax. We help established businesses get found by the right people, give those people reasons to trust them and win more of the work they actually want.

Websites, SEO, AI search, content, social media, photography, video and marketing strategy are all done here, by the same small team, which is why a site we build already knows what the marketing around it needs.

We have been working with websites and digital marketing for approaching 20 years, and today we work with businesses across West Yorkshire and nearby areas, including Huddersfield, Halifax, Bradford, Leeds, Keighley and Skipton. Construction, trades and professional services make up most of the work.

Find you.Trust you.Choose you.

Help the right people find you. Give them genuine reasons to trust you. Make it easy for them to choose you.

Common questions

Web design in Huddersfield, the questions we get asked

How much does a business website cost in Huddersfield?

A simpler Halizona site, where the branding, the photographs and most of the words already exist, starts at £1,495 + VAT. A portfolio-led site with copywriting, case studies and search research is around £3,295 + VAT, and a search-led site built to be a long-term marketing asset is around £4,495 + VAT.

The figure is fixed once we have talked the job through, so there is nothing to work out from a rate card.

Do you build websites for construction and manufacturing businesses?

Yes, and it is most of what we do. Bond Brickwork in Brighouse, Standeven Flooring in Hipperholme, RB Electrical in Halifax and Dolphin Heating in Huddersfield are all trades or contractors, and Jack Lunn is a main contractor. We know what a developer, a facilities manager or a buyer wants to see on a subcontractor’s site, and we build for that.

For a manufacturer the same rules apply: capabilities, capacity, tolerances and photographs of the shop floor do the selling, and the site is built to show them.

Will the website show our real projects?

Yes. That is the whole point of building one for a trade or contracting business. We photograph and film your jobs on site, fly the drone over the developments, and write each project up with the client, the scope and the result wherever they can be named. Template mock-ups and stock photographs of hard hats tell a buyer nothing about you.

Who owns the website, and can we edit it ourselves?

You do. The domain, the design and the words are yours.

Most clients ask us to make the changes because it is quicker, but the site is built so that adding a project or a news item is something your office can do without ringing us.

Do you look after the website once it is live?

Yes, and most clients want us to. Bond Brickwork’s site has been managed by us since 2018, and Standeven’s has had photography, video and new content added since the redevelopment. Hosting, updates, new pages, SEO, AI search and the wider marketing can all sit with the same team, so the site keeps earning its keep years after launch.

Should we sort the website before starting SEO, or the other way round?

Fix the website first if it cannot take new pages, is slow on a phone or has one page trying to rank for everything. Most search work is done on pages, and if the pages cannot be built or changed the SEO has nowhere to go.

If the platform is sound, the two run together: the search research decides which pages the site needs, and the site is built or reworked to carry them. The guide above on websites holding back SEO goes through the checks.

Can one company handle the website, the SEO and the marketing?

Yes, and it is the way we prefer to work. Educamus has used us as their outsourced marketing team for more than three years, and Bond Brickwork has for longer. A website built by the people who will run the search, the content and the photography around it is planned with those jobs in mind, which saves everyone rebuilding it in a year.

Is Halizona actually based in Huddersfield?

No. Halizona is based in Halifax, a short drive from Huddersfield, and we have no office in the town. We are over regularly for photography, filming and meetings, and two of the businesses on this page are in Huddersfield and Brighouse, so the drive is one we already make.

Where we work

Which areas around Huddersfield do you cover?

Huddersfield itself, the Colne and Holme valleys and the rest of Kirklees. Dolphin Heating is in the town, Bond Brickwork is ten minutes up the road in Brighouse, and Halifax is close enough that a site visit is easy to arrange.
