How we fix it

Web Boost — we fix the gaps we just showed you, every month

  • Speed + Core Web Vitals

    Image compression, caching, lazy loading, render-blocking cleanup — the fixes the benchmark above flagged.

  • On-page SEO + structured data

    Meta tags, canonicals, schema markup, internal linking — every signal Google's crawler expects, audited and fixed.

  • Conversion rate + mobile UX

    CTAs, forms, microcopy, mobile layout. Turn the traffic you're already getting into leads and customers.
