We're not just another website provider. We build digital tools that help self-employed tradesmen generate more enquiries, showcase their work, collect reviews, strengthen their reputation, and save time on marketing.
Our mission is quite simple: It's to give hardworking self-employed tradespeople the same digital advantages as larger companies, without the complexity, cost, or the technical headaches.
What we build
Websites that look sharp and actually help the business.
Core websites
Clean, modern pages that explain services clearly and turn traffic into enquiries.
Local SEO structure
Service pages, locations, and location-service URLs built to support regional visibility properly.
Client-friendly admin
Content, testimonials, galleries, media, and site settings managed from one clear admin area.
Start with the structure most new businesses do not have time to build.
When money and time are tight, DotNetPress gives new trades and service businesses the pages, service structure, contact routes, media areas, and admin tools they need to start promoting properly.
See the startup advantageSpread your net wider from day one.
Instead of launching with one basic homepage, a business can start with location pages for the towns and areas it wants to serve, helping nearby customers see that they are covered.
How locations helpHow it works
From business details to a trade-ready website in under 10 minutes.
Choose the trade
Start from a trade or service preset so the site structure fits the business from the beginning.
Add the essentials
Business details, services, locations, images, contact details, and launch copy are turned into a working site.
Preview before checkout
Review the first version of the website before paying, then continue only when the direction feels right.
More than brochureware
A business website platform that can grow with the client.
DotNetPress CMS starts as a polished marketing site and can grow into customer management, scheduling, reminders, and operational tools for service-led businesses that need more from their website over time.
Why DotNetPress

Built for service businesses
Especially strong for plumbers, electricians, heating engineers, builders, roofers, cleaners, salons, and local service teams.
Curated modules, not plugin chaos

Local SEO from the start
Structured trade, service, and location pages give the site room to target nearby towns and service combinations cleanly.
Hosting and modules
Start with hosting, then add business modules
No hidden bundle of tools the client may never use. DotNetPress starts with the website and adds paid modules when they make sense.
