Case studies

Success Stories.Real GBP & Search Console explosions.

We don’t just build websites. We build digital assets that force Google to pay attention. These are real results from businesses that saw ridiculous, borderline unbelievable increases in Google Business Profile performance and Search Console data. No fluff. No fake screenshots. Just before-and-after numbers that look like typos.

What we measure

What “crazy increases” actually means.

Google Business Profile

Clicks, calls, direction requests and photo views, often up 200–500% in under 90 days.

Google Search Console

Impressions, average position and CTR. We look for the vertical spikes that make you check whether your analytics are broken.

Local pack dominance

Moving from page three to the top three results for competitive Vestavia and Birmingham keywords.

Every story below shows the exact before-and-after from these platforms. No cherry-picking. No vague “we grew their traffic” nonsense.

Two data sources, one clear picture

Why GBP + Search Console tell the real story.

Most web design portfolios show you pretty screenshots and call it a day. That tells you nothing about performance. We track two things religiously:

  • Google Business Profile InsightsExactly how many people found the business on Maps and Local Search, then took action, calls, website clicks, direction requests.
  • Google Search ConsoleExactly how many times Google served the site for relevant searches, where it ranked, and how many people actually clicked through.

When both spike simultaneously, that’s the sign of web design and local SEO actually working.

The proof is in the pudding.

Case study · retail

Firearm company: 50 to 250 weekly clicks.

Firearms sales, FFL transfers, guns and ammo. Location pages and backlinks turned a quiet gun store into a local authority.

A second firearm dealer went from 5 clicks a day to 35+ in two months on our $500/month plan, a $2,000 total investment including the website we built them. These are raw organic clicks, not inflated by Google Ads.
