We build websites for local businesses through a clear brief, build, review, and launch path. It seemed fair to show what our own build could do, so we published the score.

The numbers

Google PageSpeed Insights, run on the live site, on the day it launched:

  • 100 performance, on phone and on desktop
  • 100 accessibility
  • 100 best practices
  • 100 search basics

Do not take our word for any of that. Put galloping.ai into PageSpeed Insights and watch it run. Then put your own site in, and put your competitor’s in.

Why it scores that way

There is no trick. There is a short list of things we refuse to do.

  • No page builder, no plugin stack, no embedded widgets. Nothing a visitor needs has to wait on another company’s server.
  • Under three kilobytes of code reaches the browser, compressed. Most sites ship hundreds of times that.
  • The fonts live on our server, cut down to only the letters we use. No waiting on a font company’s network.
  • Every page is a finished file. Nothing gets assembled while your customer waits. There is no database to ask, no plugin to load, no page builder to boot up.
  • Pictures are sized before they ship, not scaled down in the browser after the fact.

Why it matters to a local business

Half your customers find you on a phone, often on a bad signal, often while standing in a flooded basement. A site that takes six seconds loses a share of those people before they see your number. A site that takes one second does not.

The other half of it is who reads your site now. Google and ChatGPT both have to make sense of your pages to put you in an answer. Pages that are small, plain and correctly labeled are easier for them to read, and easier means named more often.

The part we cannot show you yet

This site launched with the pages a buyer needs and nothing else. The sample report, our own public change log, and the case studies are being built next. When they land, they will be listed on this page and in our change log, with the date.

That is the deal we make with clients, so it is the deal we make here. Every change leaves a record.
