Industry requirements

What Utilities businesses in Macomb County need from their website

Macomb County's Utilities sector generates buyers who evaluate vendor websites before making contact. These are the requirements that separate the sites that convert from the ones that don't.

01

95+ Lighthouse score

02

LocalBusiness schema

Structured data tells Google exactly what you do, where you operate, and what you charge — without relying on keyword density

03

AI assistants cite businesses with structured, direct-answer content — schema is the mechanism

Performance benchmark

The speed threshold that separates ranked sites from buried ones

Google's Core Web Vitals data shows that every 100ms of additional load time reduces conversions by ~7%. For Utilities businesses in Macomb County, this isn't a technical footnote — it's the difference between being found and being invisible.

The 95+ Lighthouse threshold is where Untap Web builds to by guarantee — not as a best-effort target, but as the contractual baseline before any site goes live.
