Where they started

Marine construction is a specialized, high-value purchase. The goal was never a flood of visitors; it was being the obvious choice for the few waterfront owners searching each month.

What the CORE Team did

Content and technical work aimed narrowly at the specific services buyers search for, with success measured by position on those searches rather than total traffic.

The outcome

What changed

Average position improved from 7.5 to 6.8 between May and July 2026 and clicks grew 24%. The site ranks for 36 keywords, 21 newly gained, with 10 on page one and two at position one.

Engagement runs at 55%, the pattern you expect when the right visitors are arriving.

★★★★★

“We do not need thousands of visitors. We need the right dozen. They understood the business before they touched the website.”

Karl R., marine contractor
