Thibodaux gunite pool builder gets named first by Perplexity
Matt Glover's custom gunite pool operation needed a website that matched the craft. Strykora built a custom site at acadiapools.com, rebuilt the Google Business Profile, and tuned the page copy so AI search engines can recommend Acadia by name. Two months later, when a real customer asks Perplexity for a pool builder in Thibodaux, Acadia Pools is the first option named in the answer.

The challenge
Matt Glover builds custom gunite pools in Thibodaux. Real builder, real reputation, real customers. But Matt did not have a website at all when he came to Strykora. The reputation was there locally. The web presence was zero. Every install lead came through word-of-mouth, which meant Matt was leaving money on the table any time a customer Googled "pool builder Thibodaux" mid-decision.
Section 02
The approach
- Custom-built site at acadiapools.com, owned outright by Matt, no monthly platform fee
- Six service pages mapped to what Acadia actually does: custom gunite pools, renovation, water features, outdoor living, turf installation, pool maintenance
- Owner story written in Matt's voice, not generic "trusted local builder" agency boilerplate
- Google Business Profile rebuilt with photos, services, and a regular post schedule lined up with the on-site copy
- The behind-the-scenes code AI search engines look for (schema and llms.txt) plus page copy written so AI can quote it directly, all tuned for Thibodaux pool builder searches
- Trust signals surfaced where buyers look: licensed and insured, open seven days a week, People's Choice Award, free consultations

The result
When a real customer asks Perplexity for a pool builder in Thibodaux, Acadia Pools is the first name in the answer, ahead of Backyard Makeover and Coastal Pool Company. Perplexity pulls Matt's phone number (985) 413-2954 and the "custom gunite pool and spa builder" wording directly from the page copy Strykora built. The AI started naming Acadia within months of launch.
