The Challenge

A reputation that outran
the website.

Tony's biggest asset was invisible.

Tony had years of five-star Google reviews, and none of them were on the website. Competitors showed their reviews right up front. Every visitor left without seeing what made Tony different.

We put reviews front and center on the homepage, every service page, and the contact page. No visitor can miss them before they call.

A reputation Google couldn't read.

Tony had the reviews, the track record, and the service area. But the site wasn't tagged so Google and AI could read it, the blog hadn't been touched since mid-2024, and there was no location structure. Domain Authority sat at 20 while competitors were at 35 to 50, not because the business was weaker, but because the site wasn't getting credit for it.

We built on Tony's existing foundation. We tagged the site so Google and AI can read it, added 13 location pages with unique content, optimized his Google Business Profile, and built a content strategy to rank in regular and AI-powered search.

The first impression said nothing about Tony.

Tony had 20+ years in business since 2005, a BBB A+ rating, and factory-direct pricing, and none of it showed above the fold. The site was a generic GoDaddy template that could have belonged to any flooring company.

We made Inspector Reno the brand mascot. Tony's story, credentials, and pricing advantage now live in the hero, the first thing every visitor sees.

No proof of the work, no reason to stay.

There was no project gallery. 20 years of real Columbus installs lived only in Tony's camera roll. Visitors had nothing to browse, and nothing to push them from interest to a call.

We built a before-and-after gallery organized by flooring type and room. Homeowners can browse real installs before they pick up the phone.

High-intent leads bounced on the form.

The quote request was buried three clicks deep, with 12 fields to fill out. People ready to hire dropped off before they finished, right at the worst place to lose a customer.

We built a 3-field form and put it above the fold on every page. No friction, no drop-off, a lead captured before the visitor has to think about it.
