Executive Summary

AME Ultrasounds (Absolute Medical Equipment) faced serious challenges: their previous website was dysfunctional, dependent on an unavailable developer, and failing to generate inbound leads or sustain SEO performance. Codegreen Group stepped in, migrating AME's site to Shopify with a modern, scalable setup.

Within 60 days post-launch, AME achieved:

  • 10,000 unique visits in 30 days (with ~300% month-over-month growth)
  • 20+ warm leads per week via forms, quotes, and product inquiries
  • Complete content autonomy without vendor lock-in

The Problem

Legacy Site Dysfunction & Dependency
  • • Performance, usability, and stability issues (broken links, slow pages, poor UX)
  • • All updates required reliance on a single developer, now unavailable
  • • AME lacked flexibility and control over their own web presence
Collapse of Inbound Generation
  • • User engagement and trust dropped with deteriorating site
  • • Organic visibility shrank due to structural issues and content stagnation
  • • Inbound leads dwindled or ceased entirely, hampering business growth
Inefficient Cost & Management Model
  • • Routine updates required developer time and cost
  • • AME was dependent on external help for even small edits
  • • Slow turnaround on minor content changes or new product additions

The Solution

Modern, Manageable Platform

Improved SEO & Visibility

Goals & Desired Outcomes

Approach & Implementation

Below is how Codegreen executed on this project in collaboration with AME, transforming their digital presence through strategic planning and modern technology implementation.

Discovery & Audit

We conducted a thorough technical audit of the existing site—fixing broken links, evaluating page speed, and assessing information architecture and content gaps. We mapped critical user journeys, prioritized the highest‑impact product lines, and documented baseline metrics to benchmark improvements after migration.

Shopify Migration

We selected Shopify for its stability, rich ecosystem, and extensibility. We built a modular, reusable theme that covers all key page types and integrated lead‑capture and analytics tooling so the team can make data‑driven decisions from day one.

SEO & Content

We implemented a clean URL structure with the necessary redirects, optimized meta tags, headings, and internal linking, and executed a focused content plan aligned to priority keywords to strengthen relevance and visibility.

Lead Capture

We embedded high‑intent lead forms across relevant pages, configured end‑to‑end conversion tracking and analytics, and set up automated follow‑up workflows to accelerate responses and nurture prospects effectively.

Self-Management

We delivered a low‑overhead theme the team can manage independently, trained non‑technical staff, and enabled streamlined content and product updates without ongoing developer dependency.

Within 60 days post-launch, AME achieved remarkable results that transformed their digital presence and business operations.
