Florida Smart Homes

Floridas Smart Homes is one of the premier audio video dealers in the United States. Their audience ranges from those interested in the latest smart home technology to state-of-the-art stereo equipment. We have worked with Florida Smart Homes since 2014.

Floridas Smart Homes has installed some of the most sophisticated and beautiful residential and commercial installations in the Orlando Florida area. We showcased them in a custom JavaScript gallery - highlighting their quality of design and installations.

Our first objective on this website was to make it fully responsive, so that all pages, menus and gallery, especially mobile perform perfectly.

We implemented a new category to showcase new arrivals and technologies: Digital Trends. In this manner we are able to not only describe new products, but also build those to capture as much SEO. Leveraging new SEO tactics, our traffic count has grown three-fold in the last 24 months, and pages per session has increased 312%.
