I rescued a dead client site in one day
A St. Louis clinic's website went completely dark. By evening it was live again — faster, on a custom domain, taking bookings. Here's exactly what I did.
A local clinic called with every business owner's nightmare: their website was down. Not slow — gone. No bookings, no contact form, no presence while competitors took every click.
What was wrong
The previous setup had rotted: a broken deployment pipeline, DNS pointing at nothing, and no working backup anyone could find. The site wasn't hacked or cursed — it was simply unmaintained, which is how most small-business sites die.
What I did, in one day
- Rebuilt the site as a fast static deployment with a working pipeline, so updates go live in minutes instead of mysteries.
- Rewired DNS and put it on its own custom domain with proper records.
- Restored booking and contact flows and verified each one end to end.
- Added the unglamorous foundations: SEO metadata, analytics, security headers, favicon and branding.
The result
Same-day recovery from dead to live at myhairloss.com — and I stayed on as webmaster, so it can't rot again. Maintenance is the product as much as the build is.
The lesson for owners: if your site depends on one person who set it up years ago and vanished, you are one expired credential from invisible. A rebuild with a pipeline and a maintainer costs less than a month of lost bookings.
