If your Pittsburgh website mentions the city once in the footer, Google doesn't know what neighborhoods you serve.

Create pages for Shadyside, Cranberry Township, North Hills. Use specific place names in headers. That's local SEO.

94% of Framer sites rely on nav links instead of in-body links.

That means Google barely knows most blog posts exist.

Internal linking is your most underused SEO lever. We just published the fix:

Perplexity, ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini all sent traffic to our site last week.

Those sessions averaged nearly 5 minutes. Someone asked a real question. Got our content as part of the answer. Stayed to read.

GEO isn't theoretical anymore.

Platform migration done wrong: 40–60% traffic drop.

Done right: 10–20% dip, full recovery in 4–8 weeks.

The difference isn't the platform. It's the redirect map.

Most ecommerce brands pick their platform based on name recognition. Wrong move.

Shopify wins under $500K/year. BigCommerce wins $500K-$2M with B2B needs. Custom only makes sense above $800K-$1.5M.

Traffic is a vanity metric if no one converts.

First impressions form in 50ms. Load time over 2s and half your visitors are gone.

Fix it before you spend more on ads.

WordPress costs more than you think.

$600–$2,400/year just for basic security. Before hosting, plugins, or developer fees.

Google Business Profile posts expire after 7 days.

Most businesses post once and forget it.

The ones ranking in the local pack post 2-3x per week. Consistently.

Not because they have more to say. Because Google is watching.

Your website's design isn't the problem.
Your website not loading in 3 seconds is.

Most redesign conversations start in the wrong place.

WordPress sites need security patches. Plugin updates. Hosting upgrades. A dev on call.
Framer needs none of that.
The platform matters.

[Striking Alchemy @strikingalchemy]

Ranking in Pittsburgh local search isn't complicated.
GBP, consistent citations, local content, reviews. Do those four things consistently.
Most businesses skip at least two.
