TL;DR: Getting views but not leads? It’s not about more traffic. It’s about making it ridiculously easy for people to take action. This blog gives you the simple fixes that turn browsers into buyers.

Let’s be honest. You don’t need more people clicking around your website.
You need more of them picking up the phone or filling in your enquiry form.
If you’re getting traffic but no enquiries, the problem isn’t your skill, your work or even your pricing. It’s what your visitors see (or don’t see) when they land on your site or profile.
Here’s how to fix it. Quickly and simply.
1. Be crystal clear: what you do and where
Sounds obvious. But a shocking number of trades websites and social bios still don’t say what they actually do. Or where they do it.
Within two seconds of landing on your page, a visitor should know:
What service you offer
What area you cover
Who it’s for
Quick examples:
Gas Safe Heating Engineer in Grimsby
Kitchen & Bathroom Fitter across Cleethorpes and North East Lincs
Domestic Electrician serving Hull and East Yorkshire
No fluff. No waffle. No guessing.

2. Give them one job to do next
When someone’s interested, don’t make them work for it.
You need one clear call to action. Not five. Not a full menu. Just one.
For example:
Call now
Get a free quote
Request a callback
Check availability
Put it high on the page. Repeat it at the bottom. Don’t bury it in a contact page no one clicks.
3. Use real photos. Real proof. Real you.
People trust people. Not polished stock images.
The fastest way to build trust online? Show your face. Show your work. Show what it’s like to work with you.
Use:
Before and after shots
Photos of jobs in progress
Customer reviews
A selfie in your branded gear
A screenshot of a WhatsApp message from a happy client

4. Don’t let leads go cold
Let’s say someone does get in touch. What happens next?
If it takes you three days to reply, they’re gone.
Set up simple follow-ups:
An auto-reply on your enquiry form
A WhatsApp template for “Thanks – I’ll be in touch shortly”
A system to remind you to call them back (or better still, someone who does it for you)
Your lead is hottest the minute they click send. Don’t waste it.

Do this:
Google your service and area
Click your own website or profile
Try to find out what you do, where you are and how to get in touch. Pretend you’re a new customer.
If it’s confusing or slow, fix it. Today.
