Put a Get-a-quote button on your own website

By Yamate · Last updated August 2026

Most tradie websites end at a phone number. A customer who is ready to ask has to ring you, at a time that suits them and not you, and then describe the job down the phone while you are on a roof. This puts a button on your site instead — they tap it, answer the questions for their job, add photos, and it lands in your Yamate jobs list.

Build your button

In Yamate, tap Copy my job-request link and paste the whole thing here. Nothing you paste leaves this page.
Entirely optional, and the button works the same without it. When it is on, the link is nofollow — it passes no SEO credit in either direction, so it is there for people who want to say what they use, not as a condition of using it.

Where to paste it

  • Wix — Add → Embed Code → Embed HTML, then paste.
  • Squarespace — add a Code block and paste.
  • WordPress — a Custom HTML block, or a text widget in a sidebar.
  • A site somebody built you — send them the code and ask for it near the top of the home page and at the bottom of the contact page.
  • Anywhere else — it is ordinary HTML with the styling written into it. If a box takes HTML, it will take this.
💡 Put it in two places, not one. Near the top of the home page, where somebody who already decided can act, and at the bottom of whatever page describes your work, where somebody who was still reading has just finished deciding.

Why a button beats a contact form

A contact form gets you "hi, I need a fence, can you call me". Then you ring, they do not answer, you ring again, and three days later you find out it is 40 metres on a slope and they wanted it last week.

The button asks the questions that decide the price while the customer is still sitting there — how long, how high, what material, is there a fence there now, can you get down the side. It takes photos. And it arrives as a job you can quote rather than a message you have to chase.

What it does not do

It does not put a form inside your website — it opens a new tab on your Yamate booking page. That is deliberate for now: embedding a form inside somebody else's site is a security decision, not a styling one, and it is being done properly rather than quickly.

It also does not track anything on your site. It is a link. There is no script, so it cannot slow your page down or break your layout, and it will still work in five years if we never touch it again.

⚠️ The link has your code in it, so treat it like your phone number. Anyone who has it can send you a job request — which is the point — but it is yours, and if you ever want to change it you can generate a new one in Yamate and rebuild the button here.

FAQ

Where do I get my booking link?

In Yamate, tap Copy my job-request link. That is the whole link, code and all. Paste it in the box above.

Will this work on Wix, Squarespace or WordPress?

Yes. It is plain HTML with the styling written into it, so it needs no stylesheet or script from us. Anywhere those platforms let you add HTML will take it.

What happens when someone clicks it?

A new tab opens on your job request page. It asks the right questions for the job they describe, takes photos and a preferred date, and the request lands in your Yamate jobs list.

Do I have to keep the “Powered by Yamate” line?

No — there is a tick box. The button works the same either way, and when it is on the link is nofollow, so no SEO credit moves in either direction.

Can I change the wording?

Pick from the list above, or edit the words between the > and the </a> after you paste it. Anything else in the code is best left alone.
