The shop

iMobile Repair Center has been serving Detroit since before most people knew what a buyback shop was. The store sits on Dequindre Street near 8 Mile, one of the most trafficked corridors in the city. The shop does iPhone repair, iPad repair, computer repair, and buys devices for cash. Cash, CashApp, and Zelle. Most repairs done the same day.

The store had the reviews. It had the reputation. It had customers who drove across town to sell their phones and get their screens fixed. What it did not have was a website that showed any of that to someone sitting at home searching Google at 10pm wondering where to sell their old iPhone.


The problem every shop has

A customer cracks their screen, searches "iPhone repair near me," and clicks the first result they see. If that is not your shop, it does not matter how good you are. They are already gone.

The same thing happens on the buyback side. Someone wants to sell their iPhone 14. They search "sell iPhone Detroit" or "how much is my iPhone worth." If your shop does not show up with a page that answers that question and gives them an instant number, they go to a kiosk or an online buyer and you never see that phone.

Most shops do not have the time to build a website, write SEO content, wire up a pricing calculator, and set up lead capture. They are too busy fixing screens and buying phones. That is exactly the problem SiteBot was built to solve.

What was built

The build started with the core pages every shop needs and grew from there. Here is each system that is live today.

System 1

The website

A fast, clean static site built specifically for a phone repair and buyback shop. Shared header and footer across every page. Shared CSS so every new page inherits the same look. No WordPress, no page builder, no monthly plugin fees. The site loads fast and stays fast.

Every page is structured around what customers actually search. Repair pages for every service. Sell pages for every device. Article pages for every question a customer asks before deciding which shop to trust.

System 2

The iPhone and iPad quote calculators

A customer visits the sell page, picks their model and condition, and gets an instant cash offer. No phone call. No form to submit. Just a number, right there on the screen. The offer comes from a private Google Sheet the shop owner controls. Change the prices any time without touching the website.

After seeing their offer, the customer can lock the price for 72 hours by entering their email. They get an offer code sent instantly. The shop owner gets the lead automatically. The code is what brings the customer in the door instead of going elsewhere.

System 3

The SEO page library

Over 30 pages built to rank for searches real customers make every day. Repair pages, buyback pages, article pages covering every device issue, cost question, and comparison a customer searches before choosing a shop. Each one written with FAQ schema and structured data so Google can pull answers directly from the page.

This is the part most shops never build. It takes time and expertise. SiteBot builds the whole library as part of setup so the shop starts ranking from day one.

System 4

Google Business Profile optimization

4.9 stars and over 400 reviews. The profile is the anchor that makes every other page pull more weight. When someone searches "iPhone repair Detroit" and sees a map result with a 4.9-star shop a few miles away, that review count is the thing that makes them click.

Why this is the proof that matters

A lot of software companies build a demo that shows you what things could look like. SiteBot built a real shop first. iMobile is not a mock-up. It is not a sandbox. It is a live business in Detroit with real customers, real reviews, and real pages pulling in traffic every day.

When a shop owner joins SiteBot, this is what they get. The same system. Configured for their location, their devices, their prices. The calculator connected to their own Google Sheet. The leads going to their own inbox. The pages targeting their own city.

iMobile is at 20503 Dequindre St, Detroit MI 48234. The phone number is (313) 900-1032. You can call the shop, visit the site, use the calculator, and see 400+ real Google reviews. This is not a case study about what is possible. It is a case study about what is already working.

The goal of SiteBot has always been to take what works at iMobile and make it available to every phone shop that needs it. Most shops are just as good as iMobile. They just do not have the system behind them yet.
