The Challenge: A Website That Wasn’t Turning Heads

When Alicia Koch, owner of Salt + Light Salon and Spa, reached out, the business already had a website—but it wasn’t making the kind of first impression it should.

The site didn’t feel attention-grabbing, key pages needed updating, and the mobile experience had never been fully refined. For a beauty business where visuals, trust, and easy browsing matter, the website needed to do a better job reflecting the quality of the salon experience.

Alicia was ready for a fresh start.

“Came highly recommended along with wanting to freshen up what we already have!”

She booked a Website Refresh Intensive to modernize the design, improve SEO, and create a smoother path for potential clients to explore services and book appointments.

The Goal: Better Design, Better SEO, Better Mobile Experience

Salt + Light Salon and Spa needed a website that would:

  • Feel polished and visually engaging

  • Improve search visibility for local services

  • Make service menus easier to browse

  • Better showcase the team

  • Work beautifully on mobile devices

  • Support growth across multiple service categories

The Refresh: Strategic Updates Across the Entire Website

This project focused on turning an okay website into a strong business asset.

What We Updated:

  • Refreshed the Home, Team, Contact, and Services pages

  • Created dedicated sub-pages for Hair, Nails, Spa, and Areola Restoration services

  • Organized service menus with clear descriptions and pricing

  • Simplified the Team page with stylist bios and level-based service info

  • Optimized professional brand photos and headshots throughout the site

  • Added image galleries to showcase work and services

  • Improved the full mobile design for easier browsing and booking

SEO Work Included:

  • Keyword research focused on salon and spa searches

  • Search engine optimization across key pages

  • Stronger local keyword targeting

  • Improved page structure and search visibility

  • Better foundation for continued growth in Google rankings

  • 60 high-value local keywords moved up an average of 88 positions

  • Website visits up 14%

  • 29% of all traffic now comes from organic search

Most importantly, Alicia loved the finished result.

“I absolutely LOVE the website! Its honestly better than I could of even imagined!”
