Fast sites rank. Most local sites are slow.
Core Web Vitals, Lighthouse, and on-page SEO done right: the speed and security most Coos County sites are missing.
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
Image compression, font loading, render-blocking resources, and 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 headers that earn an A-plus 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: 61/100. 36% had HTTPS but no real security behind it. Only 2% had a working sitemap. Zero scored both fast and secure.
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 ship. The optimization service brings an existing site toward the same bar.
Curious why I write real 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 both mobile and desktop 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 weaker. Local searches here are winnable fast. A fast, properly optimized site can rank for your town and service in weeks, not months.
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.
