Blog · Case Studies
Website case studies, written up honestly.
Real businesses and real builds. Each write-up says what was wrong, what changed, and, where the numbers exist, what happened afterward. Where there are no results yet, the write-up says so.
Five domains, three business names, and a reputation nobody could find
Twenty-four five-star reviews, four books, and seven of eleven articles set to noindex. What it took to put one business back into one place.
I built this website in 2020. Six years later it sold
Built from nothing, run for six years, then sold — and the company that bought it kept me on to manage it. What actually makes a website worth buying.
His "Free Estimate" buttons dialed the wrong number
One digit off, silently, for years — plus a competitor's name still sitting in his homepage copy. What the audit found, and what I told him he didn't need.
A website redesign that produced bookings she'd never had
A 5.0 rating, ten years of results, and a site that never mentioned half of what she treated. In her words: a new booking most days, and 68% more traffic.
A name, a logo and five pages. The best part was what we took out
He came with a weed-eater and a customer list. The research found the one job every other crew turns down — so that became the business.

Three next steps. Pick the one that fits.
Whether you've got no website, a website that isn't working, or a Google listing nobody's ever finished — there's a version of this that costs nothing to find out about.
If you have no website
Get a real price, published
Websites from $800, monthly plans from $150, every number on the site with a buy button next to it. No quote form, no discovery call before you know the cost.

Find out if you even need a rebuild
Sometimes the site is fine and the Google listing is the whole problem — which is the cheaper half to fix. The redesign page starts by talking you out of it.

Eight builds, written up honestly
What each business came in with, what changed, and the results where they exist. Where there aren't any yet, it says so instead of inventing them.
Case studies →Free, takes about ten minutes
Rather just ask someone?
Send me your business name and I'll look up your Google listing and tell you what's missing from it. No pitch, no obligation, and if it's a ten-minute fix you can do yourself I'll tell you which ten minutes.
