Platform Rebuilds

Every second of load time costs you bookings.

Slow sites bleed mobile visitors and rankings, and they lose AI citations too because the crawlers cannot fetch a page in time. We rebuild for sub-2-second loads on 4G, with Lighthouse 90+ as the floor.

The challenge
A slow site is the silent leak in your business. Each second of load time on mobile drops conversion by 7 to 10 percent, and most small business sites have crept up past 4 seconds without anyone noticing. Google uses Core Web Vitals as a ranking signal, so the slow site you have been paying SEO retainers to lift is also the reason the rankings are stuck. AI engines hit a fetch timeout on slow pages and skip your content for a faster competitor. Most sites are slow because they accumulated technical debt over years: unoptimized images, render-blocking scripts, heavy WordPress themes, plugin chains, and shared hosting that cannot keep up. Patches do not fix it. Architecture does.
How we solve it
On every rebuild we ship sub-2-second loads on 4G, mobile-first, Lighthouse 90+ across Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices, and SEO. The fix is architectural: a modern React stack (TypeScript + React with Vite, Next.js, or TanStack Start), static generation or edge rendering where it makes sense, image optimization at build time (AVIF/WebP, responsive srcsets, CDN delivery), code splitting and route-based lazy loading, font loading strategies that prevent CLS, and hosting on cite-met.com with global edge distribution. We instrument Real User Monitoring after launch so the numbers are field data, not lab simulations. Performance work is part of every Site, Story, Engine, and Studio build, and it is included at every monthly retainer tier from Care ($60/mo) on up. The proposal always comes in below what your current hosting plus SEO maintenance is costing you.

Key benefits

Revenue you can point to

Cutting load time under a second lifts conversion by 15 to 30 percent on the sites we measure. We tie each speed gain back to the pipeline number your leadership watches.

A nudge up the rankings

Google counts green Core Web Vitals as a ranking signal, so the speed work pays off twice: once on conversion, once on the SEO you are already buying.

It reads as a serious team

A fast, clean site tells a technical buyer your team sweats the details. That is a quiet trust signal that matters more than most B2B sellers think.

Our process

  1. 01

    Deep Performance Audit

    We dig past the Lighthouse number to the actual cause, reading real-user monitoring alongside waterfall and main-thread profiling.

  2. 02

    Optimization Roadmap

    We rank the fixes by what they earn, so the changes with the biggest conversion and ranking payoff go first.

  3. 03

    Technical Implementation

    We do the work, from squeezing images and deferring scripts to bigger moves like static generation and edge rendering.

  4. 04

    Monitoring & Performance SLA

    We keep monitoring after launch and hold the gains as you add content and features, so the site does not slide back.

LCP improved from 4.2s to 0.8s

A SaaS client cut Largest Contentful Paint by 80% once the architecture and edge delivery were sorted.

100% Core Web Vitals pass rate

Every page went green on LCP, INP, and CLS after the work, confirmed by Chrome UX Report field data, not a lab test.

23% increase in organic traffic

Once the Core Web Vitals turned green, Google rewarded the pages and organic traffic climbed.
