Why transportation search is hard to win
When we started with Causeway Coach, national booking networks filled the results for trip searches and the operator had no measurable search presence and no Google Business Profile. That is common. Marketplaces spend heavily to sit between a traveler and the company that owns the coaches.
An operator wins back that search by being the clearest answer: a fast site with a page for every real trip type and city it serves, accurate business details everywhere, and a quote path that works on a phone.
What we build for an operator
For Causeway Coach we built a large Astro site on Cloudflare Pages and wired every lead into the FoundOS CRM. The same pieces fit any operator:
- ✓Service pages for each trip type you sell, and city pages that each carry a real local fact, never a swapped city name
- ✓Route, port, event and fleet pages written for how planners search
- ✓Structured data on every page, checked before anything goes live
- ✓A quote form, chat and call tracking that land in one inbox so every lead is counted
- ✓A Google Business Profile set up and kept accurate
How we count results
We count leads, not visits. A lead is a real quote request, call or chat that a person screened in the CRM, with tests, samples and junk taken out. Google Analytics events are reported as tracked events, never as leads. That is how the Causeway Coach figures on this page were counted, and it is how we report to you every month.

Questions we get
Jerry answers these himselfHow much do you charge for SEO and marketing?
One plan: $399 a month to start plus a one time build, then $599 a month starting the month after we send you 10 real leads. The build is $1,000 for most sites, or $250 with a six month commitment. A large fleet site with many city and route pages is quoted up front, before any work starts.
What is included in the monthly service?
Site updates and new pages, local SEO, Google Business Profile upkeep, structured data, AI visibility work and a plain monthly report of leads, calls and rankings.
Do you require a contract or can I go month to month?
Month to month. You can cancel anytime and you keep everything we built.
How do you measure leads, calls, and bookings?
Quote forms, chat and tracked calls land in a CRM where each lead is screened by a person. We report screened leads by source, not raw form events or total visits. Bookings come from your own records, so we ask you for them.
Do you help with AI search and ChatGPT results?
Yes. We publish clear answers, structured data and consistent business details so ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI answers can read and cite you. Nobody can promise an AI mention, and we report what we see each month.
Do you optimize Google Maps and Google Business Profile?
Yes. We set up or clean up your profile, categories, services and photos, and keep it matched to your site. Map rankings follow your verified address, so we focus on the area around it and win wider areas through your site.
Can you show proof from similar transportation or bus companies?
Yes. Causeway Coach, a Florida charter operator, is our headline case study, with screened lead counts from the CRM and Google Search Console figures, each with its window. Read the Causeway Coach case study.
Do you work with local Florida businesses or national clients only?
Mostly Florida service businesses, and we take transportation operators anywhere in the US because the work is done by video and phone.
Who owns my website, Google Business Profile, and ad accounts?
You do. Your domain, site code, Google Business Profile and any ad or analytics accounts stay in your name. We work with access you grant and can hand everything back at any time.
What cities in Florida can you help me rank in?
Any city you actually serve. We build a page for a city only when we can say something true and useful about trips there, so the pages help planners instead of repeating your city list.
