Buck Creek Taxidermy & Tannery
Buck Creek Taxidermy & Tannery needed a complete digital transformation to showcase their craftsmanship, attract new clients, and increase online visibility. This included a fully custom, responsive Next.js website, integrated Google Analytics for insights, and a professional Google Business Profile to enhance local search presence.
Project Overview & Challenges
Buck Creek Taxidermy is renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship, creating stunning, lifelike mounts that reflect years of expertise. However, their online presence was minimal—limited to word-of-mouth referrals and a basic Facebook page—making it difficult for potential clients to discover their services. This lack of visibility meant that many high-value customers were simply unaware of the quality and range of Buck Creek’s work, creating missed opportunities for growth.
The Challenge: design and build a professional, fully custom digital presence that not only reflects the artistry and quality of Buck Creek’s work but also increases discoverability, builds trust, and encourages prospective clients to reach out. Every aspect—from visuals and layout to content strategy, analytics tracking, and local search integration — was carefully crafted to showcase their expertise, highlight unique offerings, and drive measurable results. The goal was to turn casual visitors into engaged prospects and ultimately, loyal customers.

Custom Website Development 💻
Your Website Blueprint 🧩
Before your website ever goes into development, I create a fully interactive layout inside Figma. This serves as your website’s blueprint and ensures the design, user experience, and structure are strategically planned from the start. You get a clear, accurate preview of the final site before a single line of code is written.
- Preview your full website design in a clean, scrollable interface
- Request edits instantly — no delays or technical barriers
- Confirm branding, layout, and messaging before development begins
- Streamline the entire project timeline and avoid costly revisions later
- Improve user experience by refining the flow and structure early
The live Figma preview allows clients to walk through your design in real time. This helps you visualize page flow, understand how each section connects, and ensures the final website is built with purpose, clarity, and strong user experience from start to finish. A Figma preview is provided with every website I build.
Google Analytics Integration 📊
Google Analytics provides insights into visitor behavior, engagement, and what drives inquiries.

Pages were optimized with meta titles, descriptions, schema markup, and local SEO techniques.
