The challenge
What needed to change
- The previous website did not reflect the scale or professionalism of Blacktop's commercial paving and milling operations.
- Paving, milling, industries, service areas and completed projects needed clearer crawlable architecture for commercial search intent.
- Calls, forms, chat, appointment requests and follow-up were spread across separate tools instead of one measurable lead process.
System built
Website, lead flow and operations
- Migrated the public website to a modern Next.js deployment with mobile-first conversion paths and dedicated paving, milling, industry and service-area pages.
- Connected GoHighLevel CRM, lead forms, website chat, commercial site-visit booking, call tracking, missed-call recovery and automated SMS/email follow-up.
- Added project case studies, drone and jobsite media, recruiting paths, analytics and conversion tracking so the website supports both credibility and lead management.
Search & AI visibility
How the public information architecture was strengthened
- Implemented service, breadcrumb and FAQ structured data where supported by visible page content.
- Built service-area and project architecture around real commercial paving and milling work instead of generic keyword pages.
- Improved internal linking, metadata, sitemap coverage, technical crawlability and AI-search-readable project proof.
First-party evidence
What can be verified from the work
- The production site now exposes dedicated Paving, Milling, Projects, Knowledge Center and service-area pathways from the main information architecture.
- GA4 route tracking was tested on live internal navigation and confirmed to record one pageview per route change without duplicate route events.
- Phone, booking and form pathways are connected to measurable conversion and CRM workflows rather than relying only on email notifications.
Business impact
What the business has now
- Blacktop now has one connected platform for commercial credibility, project proof, search visibility, estimate capture and lead follow-up.
- The system is structured so new commercial inquiries can be captured, routed, tracked and worked instead of disappearing across disconnected tools.
- The content foundation can continue expanding around completed projects, service areas and commercial paving questions without rebuilding the site architecture.
