Kyle, TXHair Salon

V. Clay Salon

Open since 2006 and invisible to Google. Their site had a broken certificate, no mobile viewport tag, and no structured data. I rebuilt it as five indexable pages with schema, a sitemap, and robots.txt.

The problem

Kyle’s original hair salon, open since 2006, running a site that search engines had good reason to ignore. Three faults compounded: a self-signed certificate that threw a browser warning before anyone saw the page, no viewport meta tag so phones rendered a desktop layout, and no structured data beyond a generic WordPress stub.

What I did

  • Rebuilt as five indexable pages so services, gallery, about, and contact each target their own terms.
  • HairSalon JSON-LD on every page, carrying the real name, address, and service list.
  • sitemap.xml and robots.txt written and ready to submit to Search Console.
  • The viewport tag added, which alone fixed how the site rendered on a phone.

Where it landed

The certificate still needs fixing at the host, which no rebuild can do. Everything else search engines look at is now in place.

Worth saying plainly: Real HTTPS has to come from the hosting provider. A rebuild cannot fix a certificate, and that has to happen before launch.
