Bailey Specialty Cranes & Aerials (BSCA) is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) based in Muskego, Wisconsin. Established in 2010, the company specializes in designing and manufacturing custom cranes and Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) for niche markets. Their focus is on engineering and manufacturing specialty lifting products with an emphasis on safety, performance, and innovation.

Problem statement

Our research

Before initiating the redesign, Quixta conducted an in-depth analysis of Bailey Cranes’ existing digital infrastructure, user behavior, and industry benchmarks. Our research methodology involved a combination of SEO audits and competitor analysis to identify key areas for improvement. We examined site analytics to determine user drop-off points, navigation bottlenecks, and slow-loading elements that negatively impacted engagement.

How did we help them?

Website Re-design

We developed a modern, responsive, and high-speed website tailored to Bailey Cranes’ audience. The new design focused on clear navigation, structured product categorization, and intuitive CTAs to enhance user experience. 

Branding

Bailey Cranes sought a stronger brand presence. We refined their identity with a professional color scheme, standardized design, clearer messaging, and strategic storytelling to highlight their engineering excellence.

Design strategy

Technical Content Simplification

Instead of overwhelming users with raw data, product specifications are broken down into easy-to-read sections.

Industry Focused User Interface

We used bold colors, strong typography, and structured layouts to reflect the toughness of crane machinery while keeping product specs accessible.

Clear Product Categorization

Products are grouped by type and use case, making it easy for users to find relevant cranes quickly.

Development phase

The redevelopment of Bailey Cranes’ website was executed on WordPress, leveraging its flexibility, scalability, and ease of content management. Our goal was to build a platform that was not only visually compelling but also technically robust, high-performing, and easy to manage for Bailey Cranes’ internal team.

To achieve this, we implemented Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), allowing for highly customized, structured, and dynamic content management. This ensured that Bailey Cranes could effortlessly update product details and technical specifications.
  • SEO-Ready Architecture: We performed schema markup integration for better indexing and search visibility, and a mobile-first development approach ensuring seamless responsiveness across devices.
  • Third-Party Integrations: We integrated Google Analytics and Google Search Console to monitor the online traffic. We also integrated 3MERA to turn CAD files into 3D product experiences.
  • Testing & Deployment: Conducted extensive testing across browsers, devices, and user scenarios before deploying the live site.
The result was a seamless blend of technical sophistication, functional efficiency, and brand-driven storytelling, empowering Bailey Cranes with a future-ready, easily maintainable web solution.

Outcome & Impact

The transformation of Bailey Cranes’ website delivered measurable improvements in user experience, performance, and brand positioning. By addressing the critical challenges in navigation, content management, and design consistency, we helped create a highly functional, conversion-driven platform that aligns with the company’s industry leadership.

Key outcomes

  • The average session duration of the new website is 3min 23sec as compared to the old website’s 3min 53sec, resulting in easy access to information for the visitors.
  • The website reached 874k impressions shortly after a few months of the launch.
