THE CHALLENGE

Local expertise needed a stronger digital advantage.

Lawn Ace serves homeowners across Augusta, Grovetown, Evans, Martinez, North Augusta, Aiken, and the wider CSRA. It competes with national brands, but its real advantage is local knowledge, straightforward pricing, and service backed by more than 1,700 five-star Google reviews.

The old website was not converting that advantage into enough quote requests. Its SEO health score was 45 out of 100, local coverage was limited, and customers searching outside office hours needed a faster mobile path to act.

LEAD FLOW · FEBRUARY–JUNE

Five months produced 22.5 months’ worth of the old pipeline.

The rebuilt site launched February 5, 2026. From launch through June, it averaged 4.5 times the old site’s monthly lead volume. February alone reached 2.9× the former full-month average in only 24 days.

* February is a partial month covering February 5–28.

WHEN LEADS ARRIVE

The website works the shifts the office can’t.

Almost half of all quote requests arrive before 8 a.m., after 5 p.m., or on a weekend. A fast, mobile-friendly quote form captures interest at the moment it is highest instead of asking homeowners to remember to call the next morning.

About one in five recorded requests came in on a Saturday or Sunday.

WHERE LEADS COME FROM

Local visibility expanded across the CSRA.

City and service pages help Lawn Ace appear for relevant searches throughout its service area—without exposing client-sensitive town-by-town performance data.

WHAT WE DID

The work behind the numbers.

Website strategy, search visibility, conversion design, and paid acquisition worked as one system rather than separate projects.

01 · Technical SEO

Fixed the foundations

Cleaned up titles, descriptions, headings, image alternatives, mobile layout, and page speed so search engines can understand and rank every page.

02 · Structured data

Schema built for AI search

Implemented sitewide structured data that helps search engines and AI platforms understand Lawn Ace’s services, expertise, and local relevance.

03 · Local SEO

Pages for each town and service

Built dedicated service and city pages around the searches homeowners actually use, without publishing thin, duplicated location copy.

04 · Google Ads

Paid search that feeds the form

Connected ready-to-buy local searches to fast service pages built to convert, then tracked lead performance across paid and organic sources.

05 · Lead automation

Immediate lead routing

Developed an automated workflow that sends each website inquiry to the sales team immediately, helping Lawn Ace respond while interest is high.

06 · Trust

1,700+ reviews, front and center

Placed Lawn Ace’s 4.9-star reputation where visitors make decisions and rewrote key messaging in clear, customer-friendly language.
