The speed Google scores
How fast the main content shows up, how quickly a tap gets a response, and whether the page jumps while it loads, brought into the green where Google actually counts them.

Get found, and load fast when you are.
When someone searches for what you do, your site should show up clearly and open fast on a phone. I measure both and fix what holds you back.
Measured before. Measured after.
Search engines reward sites that load fast, stay secure, and are easy to read. Most small-business sites fail all three, and they have no idea, because nobody ever measured.
I measure, fix what the numbers point to, then measure again. You see exactly what changed.
What's included
Speed optimization
Smaller images, faster fonts, less code holding the page up, and proper caching. The fixes that turn a 5-second load into under one.
On-page SEO
Titles, meta descriptions, headings, canonicals, and internal links, cleaned up and made unique on every page.
Structured data
Schema markup so search engines and AI overviews understand your business, your services, and your service area.
Security posture
HTTPS done right, a strict content security policy, and the header set that earns a top security grade instead of a bare lock icon.
Before and after report
Real Lighthouse and Observatory scores, measured at the start and again at the end. No vague promises.
The numbers from 169 local sites
I audited 169 Coos County small-business websites with Google Lighthouse and Mozilla Observatory. Average mobile speed among the 96 that returned a score: 61/100. 36% scored an F on security headers, most of them despite having HTTPS. None earned an A for security.
That is not a knock on those businesses. It is an open lane. In a market where almost no one has done the work, doing it well puts you ahead fast.
This is also the bar I build to from scratch: around a 95 Lighthouse average and an A-plus security grade on every site I build. The optimization service brings an existing site toward the same bar.
Curious why it is custom code instead of WordPress or a builder? Here is the full reasoning, with the numbers.
Questions
How do I know if my site is slow?
Run it through my free audit tool, or I will. It checks speed, accessibility, SEO, and security on mobile and shows you the same scores Google sees. Most local sites are surprised.
Can you fix my site, or do I need a rebuild?
Often I can fix the site you have: compress images, fix the metadata, tighten security, resolve layout shift. If the platform itself is the bottleneck, like a heavy page builder, a rebuild may cost less in the long run. The audit tells us which.
Does SEO really matter in a small town?
More than in a city, because the competition is thin: across the 169 Coos County sites I audited, the average mobile speed was 61 out of 100. Nobody can promise a ranking or a date, so I show you the scores on your own site before and after.
Will you prove it worked?
Yes. I measure Lighthouse and Observatory scores before I start and again when I finish, so the improvement is on paper, not just a promise.
