Description

I redesigned Renaissance Builder's website, as it had not been updated in over a decade. It was not responsive, failing to adapt to different screen sizes, particularly mobile devices, as it predated the smartphone era. The visual elements were also needing adjustment, with images that were blurry and low-resolution.

To address these challenges, I executed a complete rebuild, focusing on modernizing the UI and optimizing the UX for today's standards. This involved updating the company logo and establishing a cohesive brand identity by integrating the logo's color scheme into the site's overall palette. All existing photos were significantly improved using AI image upscaling to enhance their resolution and clarity.

A critical update was implementing responsive design, ensuring the new Renaissance Builders site functions and looks great on desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

These efforts resulted in a dramatic improvement in site performance, evidenced by a 900% increase in monthly web traffic within 30 days of deployment.

Objective
Having not been updated in over a decade, I did a complete redesign of the Renaissance Builders website. Seeing how the site was created before the smartphone era, it was not responsive, failing to adapt to different screen sizes. The visual elements were also needing adjustment, with images that were blurry and low-resolution.

To address these challenges, I executed a complete rebuild, focusing on modernizing the UI and optimizing the UX for today's standards. This involved updating the company logo and establishing a cohesive brand identity by integrating the logo's color scheme into the site's overall palette. All existing photos were significantly improved using AI image upscaling to enhance their resolution and clarity.

Operation
  • Strategic Site Architecture: Re-architected the site from a single page into a multi-page structure in Webflow. This created a more intuitive user flow and allowed for dedicated sections to thoroughly detail management services and define service areas, improving clarity for both users and search engines.
  • Conversion-Focused Development: Engineered the site in Webflow with a clear conversion hierarchy. Implemented prominent, strategically-placed Calls-to-Action (CTAs) such as "Get a Free Revenue Estimate" to guide users and maximize lead capture.
  • Building Trust & Authority: Integrated key trust-building elements that were absent from the old site, including a client testimonial section, a clear "How It Works" process breakdown, and a professional "About Us" page.
  • Technical & On-Page SEO: Built the site on a foundation of SEO best practices, including a logical heading structure, optimized metadata, responsive design for all breakpoints, and clean, semantic code to ensure high performance and search engine crawlability.
Outcome
The new Webflow site successfully elevates the Staywellbnb brand, positioning it as a premium, authoritative service provider in the competitive short-term rental market.
  • Enhanced User Engagement: The intuitive navigation and clear information architecture provide a seamless user experience, guiding potential clients from discovery to conversion with minimal friction.
  • Increased Lead Generation Potential: By implementing a CRO-focused design and targeted CTAs, the site is now optimized to convert passive visitors into actionable leads.
  • Foundation for SEO Growth: The new site architecture and technical SEO implementation create a robust foundation for improved organic search rankings, driving long-term, qualified traffic.
  • Client Empowerment: The client now has a scalable, secure, and easy-to-manage Webflow platform that accurately reflects the quality of their business and can grow with them.
