van der Meer Consulting is a national engineering firm headquartered in Melbourne with 1600+ completed projects and a 180+ person team delivering structural, civil and specialist services across multiple states. You have broad capability in BIM, façade, hydraulic and infrastructure work for commercial, government and industrial clients, but the website does not present clear sector outcomes or decision pathways to help project decision-makers shortlist you. Services pages list many capabilities while the About page touts credentials, yet there are only 2 Google reviews and no sector case evidence on service pages, so high-value projects are being missed online.

You own a scale and depth few local competitors can copy: 1600+ completed projects and a 180+ strong team working across multiple Australian states. That combination of project history and multi‑state delivery is a durable asset; if the digital presence catches up, those assets could make van der Meer the obvious choice for large commercial, government and industrial briefs nationwide.
How your website scores
TECH STACK
UX OBSERVATIONS
Hero content is vague and low-context, causing visitors to disengage before seeing project outcomes; this breaks the decision flow for buyers who need immediate proof of sector competence.
Trust cues exist (project counts, memberships, project thumbnails) but they are visually subordinated and fail to carry authority; consequence is missed uplift in perceived capacity for large commercial or government briefs.
Primary conversion paths are unclear and visually weak (no prominent contact, sector-specific CTAs or case study signposts); consequence is qualified enquiries will drop out or require extra steps to validate vendor suitability.
With only about 923 organic visits a month and an authority score of 19, relatively few national decision-makers are finding evidence of your work online. The gap between 1600+ projects and just 2 Google reviews plus no sector case studies means many high-value opportunities never reach your shortlist.
The three gaps holding you back
What's possible when these gaps are closed
Showcasing targeted case studies would convert cold curiosity into shortlist-ready proof by using your 1600+ project history and the expertise of 180+ professionals. Placing those outcome-focused stories on service and sector pages will give commercial and government buyers the evidence they need to engage you rather than infer relevance.
Creating clear sector entry points from the homepage and services will turn a long services list into distinct paths for commercial, government and industrial clients. That clarity will make better use of your existing keyword footprint (about 460 ranked terms) and the roughly 1k monthly visitors, directing the right buyers to the right capabilities.
Fixing basic SEO and adding targeted content can improve rankings and make your work discoverable to decision-makers across Australia, leveraging the current 165 backlinks and 96 referring domains you already have. Improving on an authority score of 19 and addressing basic missing signals will increase qualified traffic so more high-value projects find van der Meer during shortlisting.
