When the domain is held hostage, the business is offline

Jonathan Dean came to CI Web Group with the site dark behind an invalid SSL certificate after a prior agency let the domain expire and would not hand it back. Jonathan on the record: "The reason my website's down now is they didn't give me my domain back. Our LSA marketing is down right now because everything is attached to a website."

The Hydra rebuild spans 600-plus pages, corrected Daikin Elite status, per-location Google Business Profiles, and unified WhatConverts tracking. Featured launch stats: #1 Google ranking within one week of launch and a +3,240% organic traffic increase. Praise on the record: "You guys are industry leaders - I've seen everybody recommending you guys." Story: American PHC featured customer. Market: Sarasota & Florida.
