In this detailed overview, we will walk you through how we developed the ACM Mechanical website using the Divi theme on WordPress.

Understanding the Client’s Needs

Our journey with ACM Mechanical began with a comprehensive discovery phase. We met with Adam Cope and his team to understand their business, their goals, and their target audience. ACM Mechanical has been serving the Bathurst district for over 20 years, specializing in various automotive services including standard servicing, 4×4 servicing, fleet servicing, rego checks, and the supply and fitment of EFS suspension kits. They needed a website that would showcase their expertise, highlight their services, and make it easy for customers to contact them.

Choosing Divi for Flexibility and Customization

After gathering all the necessary information, we developed a strategic plan for the website. This included defining the site’s structure, user flow, and key features. We decided to use the Divi theme from Elegant Themes for its flexibility, user-friendly interface, and powerful design options. Divi allows us to create visually appealing and highly functional websites without extensive custom coding, which was perfect for ACM Mechanical’s needs.

Designing the Layout

Using Divi, we built the site’s structure and added content, ensuring each page was optimized for performance and SEO. Here are some key components we focused on:

Homepage: The homepage is the first impression visitors get. We designed it to be visually engaging with a clear message about ACM Mechanical’s services. It includes a prominent hero image, brief service descriptions, and a call to action button.
Services Page: This page provides detailed information about the various services ACM Mechanical offers. We used Divi’s toggle and accordion modules to present the information in an organized manner, making it easy for users to find what they need.
About Page: The about page tells the story of ACM Mechanical, highlighting their experience and commitment to quality. We included images and testimonials to build trust with potential customers.
Contact Page: We made it easy for customers to get in touch by including a contact form, phone number, and a Google Maps integration showing their location. Divi’s form builder allowed us to create a customized contact form tailored to ACM Mechanical’s needs.
SEO Optimization: We implemented best practices for on-page SEO, including keyword optimization, meta tags, alt text for images, and fast loading times. This ensures that the site ranks well in search engine results and attracts organic traffic.

Ensuring a Seamless User Experience

Functionality is just as important as design. We integrated several key functionalities into the ACM Mechanical website:

Booking System: We included a booking system that allows customers to schedule services online. This system is user-friendly and integrates seamlessly with ACM Mechanical’s existing processes.
EFS Suspension Kits Information: Given ACM Mechanical’s specialization in EFS suspension kits, we created dedicated sections with detailed information about these products. This helps potential customers understand the benefits and options available.
Blog Section: To improve SEO and engage with customers, we added a blog section. This area allows ACM Mechanical to share industry news, tips, and updates, establishing them as experts in their field.
Social Media Integration: We connected the website with ACM Mechanical’s social media profiles, encouraging visitors to follow them for updates and promotions.
