I did start to do something with Wix then got way-laid, and I've already had 3 emails off them in 2 hours !
But will look into when I get more time.

I think you need to put keywords in descriptions, eg local tiler in xxxx,

If you use a professional program like WordPress there is an area for SEO and it's things like the names of your images and the tags you can add to them and also the page names and description of pages and there's all sorts which all ads to it, apparently.

Look i am no SEO wizard
But as the google bots trawl the web then to boost up the rank
You could open Pinterest account and add pictures of work and add your url from the website
You could open Houzz account and add pictures of work and add your url from the website
Surely in the website having as many keywords as Location. Tiler . Metro Maestro
And if you free Google adwords credit use in a small radius of your work area
Add Facebook page with your url
Ditto
SNAPCHAT
LINKEDIN
INSTRAGRAM
At the end of the day the more your url in the web universe the more it gets trawled by the Google Bots Other search engines are available
