Credibility first. Technical hygiene, visible proof of work, and a simple conversion path win more leads than chasing traffic. That mirrors points raised here: pushed for a site "clean up", flagged domain/placeholder/404 problems, and recommended studying competitors. The practical plan below turns those observations into a short, prioritized playbook that focuses on conversions before promotion.

Quick priority checklist (fix these before spending on ads or large outreach):

  • Consolidate domains and set proper 301 redirects so search and visitors see one canonical site.
  • Remove or finish placeholder pages and eliminate 1-click 404s from primary navigation.
  • Add a single, visible CTA on every page: short lead form (name, email, one-line brief) and a scheduler link or phone.
  • Publish 2–3 case studies with screenshots, process, tech used, and concrete outcomes — not generic statements.
  • Add trust signals: short testimonials, client logos, and links to live projects.
  • Basic tech fixes: enable HTTPS, ensure mobile responsiveness, compress images, and confirm contact forms actually deliver email.
  • Set up simple conversion tracking to measure leads by source.

Promotion tactics after fixes: pick 1–2 verticals and craft fixed-price packages for them; use targeted LinkedIn outreach tied to a relevant case study; claim local listings and portfolio platforms; run small paid-search tests for buyer-intent keywords; ask past clients for referrals and a short testimonial. Measure cost-per-lead and conversion rate; double down where ROI is clear.

30-day action plan and an outreach seed (edit before use):

Week 1: triage site health and navigation.
Week 2: publish case studies and add CTAs.
Week 3: targeted outreach and local listings.
Week 4: run a small paid test and iterate.

Example outreach template:

Subject: Quick idea for [Company]

Hi [Name],

Noticed [specific detail]. A small change — [one-sentence improvement] — often increases inquiries. Recent work for a similar client produced a measurable uplift in qualified leads. Available for a 15-minute call next week if that helps: [scheduler link].

Best,
[Name] | [Company] | [Phone]

Many people write this starts at home. You clean your house first if you are in the cleaning business.

For web design you may have trouble since your site has some 100 plus warnings and errors given by

It's like having a ragged dirty business card with spelling and grammar errors.

My advice is clean up your web site, and do the usual Facebook, LinkedIn and spread the word among family and friends. Be detail oriented since slap dash web work is common and quality is king.

I see metrikhive.com and metrikhive.in. Same business? Perhaps a link between the two or simply forward one to the other?

On the ".com" site...

Clean up

You have this...

This job listing was created using Job Manager for WordPress, by Tom Townsend.

And a link to a 404 page. This is bad ANYWHERE, but is one click from the main site, and one of the main links. That right there would make me go elsewhere. If you're a web designer and have 404 and skeleton pages one click from the main page on your own site, why would I hire you to design MY webpage?
