Real brands. Real revenue. Websites you can go look at right now.

We don't ship screenshots of unnamed projects or pretend-client mockups. Below are two live websites we designed and built — visit them, click around, book a ticket, watch the videos. Every number is verifiable against public press and client results.

SHERP North America headquarters — LeadPulls built the sherputv.com website that powered $15M in heavy equipment sales Live Site · sherputv.com

sherputv.com — the website that sold $15M of equipment.

sherputv.com

SHERP North America makes the world's most capable amphibious off-road vehicles. When they came to us, they had world-class product and no marketing infrastructure. We built sherputv.com from scratch — positioning, copy, video direction, dealer portal, full technical SEO foundation.

The result: a website that became the digital storefront for $15M+ in equipment revenue, including a $1.5M fleet purchased directly by Kanye West (featured in the "Follow God" music video, his Wyoming ranch, the Chicago Yeezy launch, and a Super Bowl commercial). 40+ dealers signed across North America. $4M+ in sales to Duke Energy alone.

This isn't a landing page. It's a five-year partnership asset that's still producing pipeline today.

hologramzooil.com — live in days after another agency failed.

hologramzooil.com

Hologram Zoo Illinois is the first permanent holographic zoo in the Chicago region — dinosaurs, space, Africa, all laser-light holograms you walk through at Hawthorn Mall in Vernon Hills. Their previous agency missed the grand opening. Doors open. No bookable website. Foot traffic walking past and leaving.

We took the handoff and shipped a live, bookable website in days — real experiences, real booking flow, real tracking. Then we built the long game: local SEO targeting "things to do Vernon Hills," "indoor attractions near Chicago," "kids birthday party Chicago"; a full birthday funnel with three package tiers; and a content engine producing the hologram video reels that fill seats.

The attraction has since been covered by TIME Magazine (Best Inventions) and Forbes. Birthday bookings are filling weeks out. Revenue climbs every month.

The Argument

Most agencies ship a brochure.
We ship a revenue asset.

The average marketing website is a museum piece — expensive to build, impressive to look at, quietly failing in the one job that actually matters. The homepage loads in three seconds instead of one. The hero headline leads with a brand slogan instead of a buyer outcome. The forms sit below the fold, past three scroll depths, protected by copy that nobody finishes reading. The SEO foundation is an afterthought bolted on after launch — if it happens at all.

This is the default, and it is the default because most agencies sell design as a product. Pixels delivered. Invoice sent. What happens after launch is somebody else's problem.

The question is not whether a website looks good. The question is whether it moves pipeline.

LeadPulls builds in the opposite direction. Every design decision starts with a commercial question: does this earn a qualified lead, a ranking position, a second page view, a filled form? The aesthetic choices follow the commercial ones — not the reverse. Editorial typography over corporate neutrality because authority out-converts blandness. Navy and orange because restraint reads as confidence. White space because attention is the scarcest resource on the internet and crowding the page destroys it.

The technical layer is the part nobody sees and everyone benefits from. Core Web Vitals tuned to sub-second LCP. Semantic HTML that search engines read cleanly. Schema markup that surfaces the business in AI Overviews and featured answer boxes. Accessibility that passes WCAG 2.2 AA — not because anyone asked, but because the websites that win in 2026 are the ones that are legible to both humans and machines.

The result is a website that looks premium, ranks organically, loads instantly, and produces pipeline on a predictable curve. Not a brochure. An asset.

What You Get

Design, development, and the quiet infrastructure underneath.

Every LeadPulls website ships as a complete revenue system — visual design, technical foundation, and conversion scaffolding. No hand-off gaps. No "we'll add SEO later." No surprises six months in.

01
Conversion-First Design
Every layout is built around a defined conversion sequence — the path from cold visitor to qualified meeting. Hero positioning, proof placement, form friction, CTA cadence, and page rhythm are all engineered to move the next click. We design to pipeline metrics, not to Dribbble.
02
SEO Technical Foundation
Clean semantic HTML, schema JSON-LD for every page type, proper heading architecture, internal linking structure, optimized meta and Open Graph, robots and XML sitemap configured from day one. Ready for AI Overviews, GEO citations, AEO featured answers, and traditional SERPs — the same build.
03
Core Web Vitals Performance
Sub-second LCP targets, CLS locked at zero, next-gen image formats, lazy loading wired, fonts loaded non-blocking, JavaScript audited for shipping weight. Lighthouse scores of 95+ out of the box, not after six months of patching.
04
Brand Identity & Visual Direction
Custom visual system — typography pairing, color architecture, component grammar, photo direction, iconography logic. Whether we're building inside an existing brand or setting the brand on the build, the visual language is deliberate end to end.
05
CMS & Editorial Workflow
Content teams should own the site post-launch. We build clean CMS architecture with editorial workflows that do not require a developer to publish a blog post, swap a hero image, or add a case study. Your marketing team ships content on their own timeline — not ours.
06
Accessibility & WCAG Compliance
WCAG 2.2 AA compliance baked into the build — semantic markup, ARIA where appropriate, keyboard navigation, color contrast verified, focus states designed. The moral case is obvious. The commercial case is that inaccessible sites lose traffic, rankings, and clients who care about both.
07
Analytics & Conversion Tracking
Full analytics and conversion tracking wired on launch day — page events, goal completions, session recording, and heatmap coverage. Events defined for every conversion path in the funnel. Dashboards configured so leadership sees pipeline, not vanity metrics.
08
Migration & Zero Ranking Loss
Redesigning an existing site is the highest-risk move a business can make — fumbled migrations cost years of organic equity. Our migration protocol includes full crawl audit, URL mapping, 301 redirect chains, schema continuity, and post-launch monitoring. Most clients maintain or improve rankings within 30 to 60 days.
How We Build

Six phases, weekly visibility, zero black-box weeks.

You see progress every week. Every deliverable is reviewed before the next phase begins. No vanishing acts, no "the design team is still iterating" explanations, no silent months. The timeline is transparent from kickoff to launch.

01

Discovery & Positioning

Stakeholder interviews, competitor audit, buyer journey mapping, conversion benchmark review, positioning clarification. We leave this phase with a documented commercial brief, not a fuzzy Pinterest board.

02

Architecture & Wireframe

Information architecture, sitemap, URL taxonomy, page-level wireframes, content hierarchy. Structure before style — because rearranging a wireframe costs nothing, rearranging finished pixels costs weeks.

03

Visual Direction

Mood boards, typography exploration, color architecture, component style tile, hero treatment studies. One focused direction, refined — not four generic options to average together.

04

Design & Prototype

Full page designs, interactive prototype, component library, responsive states. You review a clickable prototype on every device before a single line of code is written.

05

Development & CMS

Front-end build, CMS integration, content migration, form wiring, analytics setup, schema markup, accessibility QA, cross-browser testing, performance tuning. Staging environment available from week one of dev.

06

Launch & Monitor

Pre-launch crawl, 301 redirect mapping, DNS cutover, post-launch ranking monitoring for 60 days, analytics verification, training handoff for your team. Launch day is not the finish line — it's the starting line.

// AI Search & LLM Ranking

Your website doesn't just need to rank on Google anymore. It needs to get quoted by every AI on the internet.

Here's the uncomfortable truth most agencies are still pretending isn't happening: search is fragmenting. Your buyers don't just type queries into Google anymore. They ask ChatGPT "who's the best MSP marketing agency in Toronto?" They ask Perplexity "which web design companies work with med spas in Chicago?" They ask Claude, Gemini, Meta AI, Microsoft Copilot, Google AI Overviews, and Google AI Mode. They get one answer. Either your brand is in that answer — or your competitor is. There is no page two.

Traditional SEO was built for a world where ten blue links fought for a click. That world is ending. In the new model, the AI reads the web, synthesizes an answer, and names one or two brands by default. If your website isn't structured for a machine to extract, quote, cite, and recommend you — you don't exist to the 40% of your buyers who now ask an AI first.

We don't optimize websites to rank. We optimize them to get quoted.

This is what we actually do. Every LeadPulls website ships with the infrastructure LLMs need to understand, trust, and recommend your brand. Structured data and JSON-LD schema so the machine knows what type of business you are, who you serve, and where you operate. Entity-based optimization so your brand becomes a recognized node in the knowledge graphs that ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini pull from. Semantic HTML and question-shaped headings so your content is extractable as direct answers to buyer queries. Citation-ready content architecture — the kind of plain-language, fact-dense passages that AI systems preferentially quote over marketing fluff.

Then we go harder. We build the off-site signals too. Authoritative mentions across the sites LLMs trust — trade publications, Wikipedia-eligible citations, press coverage, high-reputation directories. llms.txt files that tell AI crawlers exactly which pages to index and how to describe you. Structured FAQ and Q&A content designed to match the shape of the questions real buyers ask AI tools. And we monitor it — we track which AI engines are citing you, which queries you show up for, and which ones your competitors still own.

The old SEO game was about keywords. The new one is about becoming the answer. If you want your brand to be the one ChatGPT names when someone asks for a recommendation in your industry, you need a website engineered for it. That's what we build.

The bottom line: we build websites that get quoted, cited, and recommended by every major AI search engine on the internet. Not because we chase trends, but because the trend is the terminal state of search. The brands that get this right in the next 18 months will own their categories for the next decade. The ones that don't will spend that decade wondering why their pipeline dried up.

Questions Worth Asking

Straight answers. No hedging.

We engineer websites around a single metric: qualified pipeline. Every design decision — from hero copy to form placement to page speed — is tied to conversion outcomes. We do not ship aesthetic pages that fail commercially. Every build ships with SEO technical foundation, Core Web Vitals tuning, and analytics wired in from day one.

Most conversion-focused builds ship in 4 to 8 weeks. Landing page sprints take 7 to 14 days. Enterprise builds with custom integrations, multi-location schema, or headless architecture run 8 to 16 weeks. Timeline depends on content readiness, stakeholder approval cycles, and scope — not on our side of the equation.

Ranking is baked into the build, not bolted on after. Every page ships with proper schema markup, semantic HTML, internal link architecture, optimized Core Web Vitals, mobile-first responsive structure, and content surfaced for AI Overviews, AEO featured answers, and GEO citations. SEO is the foundation — the design sits on top of it.

We select the platform based on the commercial brief — content velocity, performance requirements, integration depth, editorial workflow, and the team who will manage the site post-launch. We do not push a single stack on every client. The platform is a tool. The outcome is the product. We walk you through the platform decision during discovery so you understand exactly why we are recommending what we are recommending.

Six phases: discovery and positioning audit, information architecture and wireframe, visual direction and brand application, component design and prototype, development and CMS build, QA and launch with analytics wired. You see progress weekly. No black box. No silent stretches.

Landing page sprints start at $3,500 USD. Conversion-focused marketing websites range from $12,000 to $35,000 USD. Enterprise and multi-location builds run $40,000 USD and up. Pricing scales with scope, integrations, and custom development — not with page count.

Yes. Every migration includes a full crawl audit, URL mapping with 301 redirects, schema continuity, content equity preservation, and post-launch monitoring for ranking drift. Most clients maintain or improve rankings inside 30 to 60 days post-launch because the new build is technically cleaner than what it replaced.
