In late 2018, Housecall Pro recognized the need to improve its marketing website, which was initially built on a legacy Ruby on Rails server, leading to slow loading times and inefficiencies in content creation. To address these issues, the company transitioned to Gatsby, a React-based framework that enhanced the site's speed, scalability, and SEO capabilities by rendering static HTML files. This change resulted in a significant increase in organic blog traffic by 973% and improved the website's presence on Google's first page by 56% within a few months. The integration of Contentful, a headless CMS, allowed non-developers to rapidly generate content, significantly increasing the pace of page creation. Housecall Pro capitalized on Gatsby's ability to generate numerous industry-specific pages using a single React template, thereby reducing developer time and expanding the site's content. The transition to Gatsby also benefited from its supportive community and documentation, making it a pleasurable development experience.
