A specialized environmental consultancy needed a digital presence to reach property owners and developers across Vancouver Island. The goal was not just a visual website, but a functional tool that could compete for high-value keywords in a niche industry.

I built a streamlined, responsive WordPress site tailored to the firm’s environmental expertise. To ensure maximum visibility, I went beyond the surface level with

• Custom Schema Markup: Implemented JSON-LD structured data to help search engines accurately categorize the business and its local service area.
• Backend Optimization: Performed deep performance tuning and meta-data configuration to improve crawlability and site speed.
• Local Keyword Strategy: Targeted high-intent phrases specific to the Cowichan Valley and Vancouver Island regions.

The technical approach paid off immediately. The site successfully secured a #2 ranking on the first page of Google for the competitive keyword “riparian company vancouver island,” establishing instant local authority and driving organic leads.
