Introduction — the client & their business

The client:

Metro Wide Movers is a Kansas City–based moving and relocation services company offering residential and commercial moving, packing services, junk removal, loading/unloading, and single-item transport.

They operate in and around Kansas City, Overland Park, Olathe, Lee’s Summit, Liberty, and more.

The challenge pre-engagement:

  • The website was functional but lacked clarity in conversion pathways
  • SEO was underoptimized for key local moving terms
  • Performance and mobile experience needed improvements
  • Brand trust and professionalism weren't fully communicated
Metro Wide Movers engaged NextLab to reimagine their website: to increase leads, boost search visibility, and deliver a refined user experience aligned with their service promise.

The challenge — pain points & business stakes

Here are the key issues we uncovered that were impacting Metro Wide Movers’ growth potential:

Conversion & UX gaps

  • Quote request process was not optimally surfaced or streamlined
  • Service pages lacked consistent structure and persuasive CTAs
  • Site didn't guide users through the journey with minimal friction

SEO & discoverability weaknesses

  • Local SEO optimization was under-leveraged in Kansas City areas
  • Metadata, schema, and internal linking had significant gaps
  • Blog content wasn't fully tied into the service architecture

Performance & technical limitations

  • Image-rich pages potentially slowed down page loads
  • Mobile experience needed optimization for usability
  • CSS/JS optimizations and asset compression were needed

Brand & trust communication

  • Trust cues needed better placement in conversion paths
  • Licensed, insured, veteran-owned credentials needed emphasis
  • Customer reviews required strategic positioning

Our approach — NextLab's strategy & methodology

We structured our work into phased deliverables combining user research, AI-assisted insights, UX redesign, SEO, and performance optimization.
