Premium Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning's website was created in-house on a do-it-yourself platform. The content of the website was strong, with great images, but we found that it was missing meta tags, title tags, as well as other search engine optimization components. This led us to create a new website design that was user-centric with a focus on solving the visitors' problem. The website used the company's colour scheme and improved mobile responsiveness and "sharability."
