Metal Man Restoration is a metal restoration company in Mount Vernon, New York. It came to us after its website disappeared because of a software failure.
We recreated the site using the Wayback Machine as a reference, then rebuilt it properly, with a page for each service. Here is what it earned from search over the last twelve months.
What We Built
There was nothing left to migrate, so the first job was recovery: rebuild what existed from the public archive. The second was improvement: clear service pages for plating, refinishing and radiator restoration, written for the way customers search for a craftsman who can save a piece instead of replacing it.

What Search Visitors Did
Search Console counts clicks from Google. Google Analytics counts what happens after the click. Between October 3, 2025 and October 2, 2026, Analytics recorded 3,241 visits to the Metal Man Restoration website from organic search, 33% of its 9,693 visits.
61% of those search visits were engaged, meaning the visitor stayed on the site, opened a second page or took an action.
What Came In: 357 Inquiries
Clicks are where it starts. The number a shop owner cares about is how many people got in touch.
Between October 3, 2025 and October 2, 2026, 357 inquiries came through the website's forms: 258 through the Ask The Metal Man form and 99 through the contact form. Another 29 people signed up for the newsletter.
The company's Google Business Profile added to that. From May through September 2026 it recorded 299 calls, 459 website clicks and 259 direction requests.
What Other Businesses Can Take From This
Specialist trades are searched by the job, not the trade name. Metal Man ranks at position 1.7 for "rechroming near me" and on page one for chrome plating, metal refinishing and brass plating near me.
The radiator restoration page shows how a single service page can carry a niche. It brought 227 clicks by itself, from people looking for someone to restore a cast iron radiator.
