4. SEO & Metadata

  • Title: "Fidelis Renewables | Residential Solar & Battery Service | Kansas City"
  • Meta description focused on abandoned solar customers + human service
  • JSON-LD structured data (Electrician type)
  • Open Graph / Twitter cards
  • robots.txt, sitemap.xml, site.webmanifest updated
  • CNAME set to fidelisrenewables.com

5. Assets

  • Logo files in place: light-mode-logo.png, dark-mode-logo.png
  • Placeholder images created (need real photos):
    • hero-solar-home.webp
    • solar-repair.webp
    • battery-service.webp
    • monitoring.webp

Outstanding Items (User Action Required)

Before Launch

  1. Real Images - Replace placeholder .webp files with actual photography:

    • Hero: Residential home with solar panels
    • Solar Repair: Technician on roof
    • Battery: Powerwall/battery system
    • Monitoring: Dashboard or monitoring app

  2. Testimonials - Replace placeholder text with real customer quotes

  3. Email Address - Confirm contact@fidelisrenewables.com is correct

  4. Domain Setup - Configure DNS for fidelisrenewables.com

  5. Favicon - Generate from logo (can use realfavicongenerator.net)

Nice to Have

  • Google Analytics / tracking setup
  • Contact form integration (currently email links)
  • Additional service area pages for SEO

Key Messaging Summary

WHY (Start with Why)

"When your solar company disappeared, I'm here to help."

Homeowners who invested $20,000+ in solar deserve a partner who:

  • Actually answers the phone
  • Shows up when they say they will
  • Treats their system like the investment it is

Against Otovo.ai (Competitive Positioning)

Otovo Says Fidelis Says
"Text Otovo AI" "Call me directly"
AI diagnostics "Boots on the roof"
National platform Local master electrician
Tech-heavy branding Human touch, white glove service

Technical Notes

  • Stack: React 19 + TypeScript + Vite 6 + Tailwind CSS 4 + Framer Motion
  • Dark mode: Works via toggle, persists to localStorage
  • Mobile responsive: All components use responsive breakpoints
  • Performance: Lazy loading for Services, Testimonials, CallToAction
  • Build size: ~341KB JS gzipped to ~109KB
