Niantic, CT
Custom websites for Niantic businesses that actually show up on Google.
Niantic's Main Street and shoreline draw visitors year-round — but if your business isn't showing up in local search, you're invisible to the customers already looking for you. We fix that.
What does a bad website actually cost a small business?
Niantic has real foot traffic and a loyal local customer base — but more and more, the first interaction a potential customer has with your business is on Google, not on Main Street. If your website loads slowly, looks broken on mobile, or doesn't appear in local search at all, that first impression is costing you business you'd otherwise win.
A slow, poorly structured website has two costs: it ranks lower in search results because Google uses page speed as a ranking factor, and it loses visitors who land on it and leave before reading a word. Both of those cost real revenue.
We fix both problems — not with templates or plugins, but with a custom build from the ground up using a stack designed specifically for performance.
What we build
Every Shoreline Web Solutions site is built on Astro, styled with Tailwind CSS, and deployed to Cloudflare's global edge network. That combination consistently produces PageSpeed scores of 90 or above on both mobile and desktop — the range where Google's Core Web Vitals are fully satisfied.
Local search visibility
A technically sound, fast-loading site with properly structured local business schema gives Google everything it needs to surface you when someone nearby searches for what you offer.
Mobile performance
The majority of local searches happen on phones. A site that scores 95 on desktop but 60 on mobile is a mobile site problem — and most of your customers are searching on mobile.
No platform lock-in
You own your site. Not a Wix subscription, not a WordPress theme dependent on plugins that need constant updates. A clean, maintainable build on infrastructure you control.
Real results from real Connecticut clients
These aren't projections. These are PageSpeed scores from Google's own tool, before and after a Shoreline Web Solutions rebuild.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with businesses in Niantic?
Yes. We're based in Old Lyme, right next door to Niantic, and serve small businesses throughout the Connecticut shoreline. We work with clients locally and across Connecticut.
How much does a website redesign cost for a small business?
Most small business projects fall between $1,500 and $4,000 depending on the number of pages, integrations, and complexity. Every engagement starts with a free performance audit so you know exactly what the problem is before committing to anything.
How long does a website build take?
Typically four to six weeks from kickoff to launch for a standard small business site. More complex builds with booking integrations, custom applications, or large content libraries take longer.
Will my new website rank higher on Google?
A technically sound website is a prerequisite for ranking — not a guarantee. We build sites that satisfy Google's Core Web Vitals, implement proper structured data, and follow current SEO best practices. Organic rankings build over time. We give you the foundation. The growth follows.
What's a free performance audit?
We run your current website through Google PageSpeed Insights and a structured data check, document what's hurting your rankings and load times, and give you a plain-English summary of what we'd fix and how. No commitment required.
