Site migration, technical SEO, local visibility, content strategy
First 3 months of an ongoing engagement
What We Worked On
We simplified primary navigation, cleaned up pages and redirects, tightened internal linking, and fixed homepage metadata and heading issues. That made the site easier to use for patients and easier for search engines to crawl and understand.
The technical work covered site migration and stabilization, WordPress/core cleanup, GA4 and Search Console connection, updated XML sitemaps, mixed-content fixes, SEO plugin validation, and search-aligned service page improvements. The result was a cleaner baseline with stronger crawlability, indexability, and reporting.
Content strategy focused on foundational educational articles tied to real patient search behavior, especially ACL, pre-operative care, and dry needling topics. That gave the site a discovery layer beyond core service pages and started building topical authority in areas likely to compound over time.

Visual Comparison
How it started
Calibration Physical Therapy is a local physical therapy clinic that needs its website to build trust quickly, explain services clearly, and support patient discovery through both local search and educational content.
At the start of the engagement, the site needed a cleaner technical base, clearer page structure, stronger local search signals, and a better content framework. Important service information, analytics setup, and long-term search support all needed work before growth could compound.

Baseline visual and UX issues
Site infrastructure
The site needed migration, cleaner plugin/core maintenance, and properly connected search and analytics tooling.
Navigation and crawlability
Legacy URLs, redirects, and internal linking made the site harder to understand and maintain.
Service-page search support
Priority pages needed stronger metadata, headings, and page structure.
Local search presence
Profile completeness and listing consistency left room for stronger local discovery.
Constraints at the start
The technical foundation had to be stabilized before growth metrics would mean much
Search visibility needed to improve without turning the site into a thin SEO play
The setup needed to stay manageable for ongoing content, reporting, and iteration

How it's going
Use the Search Console compare slots below for the first reporting baseline and the latest reporting baseline. This keeps the page grounded in real before-and-after numbers instead of generated filler.
By the end of the first three months, the site had a more reliable technical base, stronger service-page structure, cleaner local search signals, and early evidence that the content strategy was starting to expand discovery.

Process
Month 1
Stabilized the site environment, connected GA4 and Search Console, updated sitemaps, and established a clean technical baseline.
Month 2
Simplified navigation, cleaned legacy URL issues, tightened internal linking, and improved metadata and on-page structure on priority pages.
Month 3
Strengthened local listings and GBP signals while educational content started generating broader discovery across ACL, pre-op, and related topics.
Next phase
Build depth around topics already showing signal, improve content-to-service pathways, and keep consolidating local and page-one visibility.
Tools and Inputs
Source for impressions, clicks, average position, and directional query growth during the reporting period.
Source for users, sessions, engaged sessions, and discovery-channel traffic movement.
Used to monitor listings consistency, local visibility, and competitive local positioning.
Tracked early citations and appearances across AI surfaces as educational content began expanding the site footprint.
Small Business Takeaway
Small business websites often underperform because the technical setup, local search signals, and content strategy were never built to support each other. A focused engagement can fix the foundation first, then let visibility gains build on something stable.
Call To Action
This kind of engagement is built for small businesses that need a cleaner site, better search visibility, and a setup that can keep improving over time instead of staying stuck.
