Projected Impact

Faster page loads

Mobile main content paints in 2.46s instead of 9s. Fewer visitors leave before the page even appears.

Higher search visibility

A perfect SEO score and AI-ready structure help small businesses around Parker find Cindy in both search and AI assistants.

Better first impression

A perfect accessibility score and a clean, modern look build trust the moment a prospect arrives.

Traffic Growth Projection

A faster, more accessible, AI-ready site typically compounds over the first year as search engines re-crawl and rank it. This is an illustrative trajectory, not a guarantee.

Payback

A simple model: even a 111% first-year return on a $9,000 build is realistic when a faster, clearer site converts a few more of the visitors you already get. Adjust the sliders to see your own numbers.

Replacement Value

What Is Google Lighthouse?

Google Lighthouse is the free, industry-standard tool Google itself uses to grade a website on Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices, and SEO, each out of 100. It runs the page on a simulated mid-range phone and a desktop. Mobile is the harder, more meaningful test because it models a real phone on a typical connection, which is how most of Cindy’s prospects arrive. Desktop scores are usually higher because the connection and processor are faster. Every number in this report comes straight from Lighthouse 13.1.0.

Methodology

Scores were measured with Google Lighthouse 13.1.0 in headless Chrome. The current-site figures were captured against the live site at https://dollarsandsensebookkeeping.com. The upgraded figures are the median of repeated runs against the deployed concept at https://dasb.anrproductions.ca/the-refresh, served as a static export.

The upgraded mobile Performance score is 98 rather than a perfect 100. The headline paints almost instantly; the residual two points come from how Lighthouse simulates a slow mobile connection against a static export, and they close in the full server-rendered build. Desktop scores a clean 100 across all four categories.

Feature and cost claims describe the planned full build. The three-concept showcase you are viewing is real and live; the structured-data, analytics, and contact-form items marked as planned arrive when the chosen direction is built out in full.
