Introduction — the client & their business

The client:

Roslagens Tattoo, a boutique tattoo studio in Sweden that offers custom tattoos, piercings, consultation, and aftercare. Known locally for craftsmanship, hygiene, and artistic expression.

The challenge before the redesign:

  • Their website was visually saturated but lacking clarity in what services are offered and how to book them.
  • Local SEO visibility was weak; potential clients in and around Stockholm or Roslagen couldn’t easily find them when searching for tattoo studios or artists.
  • Service pages or galleries were not structured to show examples of work, pricing (if applicable), or booking flows clearly.
  • Mobile experience and performance possibly lagged, especially on image-heavy gallery pages.

Why Roslagens Tattoo chose NextLab:
They wanted a partner that understands both artistry and usability — someone who could preserve the aesthetic appeal of a tattoo studio while building a website that drives bookings, showcases portfolios, and ranks well locally through SEO.

The challenge — gaps holding back growth

Identified issues & what was at stake:

Service & Booking Clarity

  • Users couldn’t easily see available services, artists’ specialties, or how to make appointments.
  • Gallery pages existed but lacked consistent structure (before/after, style tags, artist attribution) which made browsing portfolios less persuasive.

Local SEO Underutilization

  • Keywords like “tatueringsstudio Roslagen”, “tattoo Stockholm”, “piercing Roslagen” weren’t effectively used or targeted.
  • Structured data (schema) for local business, artist, gallery work, reviews possibly missing or incomplete.

Performance & Mobile Experience Weaknesses

  • High-res images in galleries, if unoptimized, were slowing loading.
  • On mobile, navigation between service info, portfolio, and contact/booking could be cumbersome.

Our approach

NextLab followed a multi-phase strategy, balancing artistry with usability and search visibility.

Discovery & audit

  • Review of existing site (visuals, galleries, artist info, booking forms, contact info).
  • Analytics & user behavior audit: which pages have high bounce, where do visitors drop off.
  • Keyword & competitor analysis focusing on local queries (tattoo + location).

Content & SEO structuring

  • Define service pages: tattoo styles (traditional, realism, black work, etc.), piercings, aftercare, consultations.
  • Plan portfolio / gallery layout with artists’ specialties, tags, high-quality visuals, filterable by style.
  • Build SEO keyword map for local terms and service-style combinations.

UX / UI redesign

  • Redesign homepage to showcase best portfolio work, artist profiles, service overview, and easy call-to-action for booking or consultation.
  • Gallery with filtering: letting visitors browse by style, by artist, by recent work; optimized images for fast loading.

Performance, technical & local SEO implementation

  • Optimize images (compression, responsive breakpoints, lazy loading).
  • Improve site speed by reducing render-blocking CSS/JS, caching, possibly using CDN.
  • Setup schema markup for LocalBusiness, reviews, opening hours, service offerings.

Launch & continuous improvement

  • QA testing: link integrity, mobile responsiveness, form submission, gallery filtering.
  • Track key metrics: appointment requests, gallery engagement, time on page, bounce.
  • A/B test: CTA wording, portfolio layout, booking form placement.
