Case Study
Mckayla Nails & Spa
Owensboro, KY
Product photos are named “Untitled design” — the default Canva export filename, never properly saved or named. The site pulls images from three different CDN domains simultaneously, which causes slow load times and broken image risks. A classic sign of a site slapped together without professional setup.

The Evidence
Product images in the gallery are served with the filename 'Untitled design' — the default export name from Canva. These were never renamed before uploading. Search engines read image filenames for context; 'Untitled design' tells them nothing.
The site pulls images from three separate CDN domains simultaneously — their own host plus two external CDNs. Each domain mismatch adds DNS lookup latency and creates broken image risk when any one CDN changes its URLs.
Mckayla Nails & Spa at mckaylanailsspaowenboro.com serves the Owensboro, Kentucky nail and spa market. The site was built quickly — and it shows. Product photos use Canva's default “Untitled design” filename, meaning they were exported without being properly named. Images are loaded from three separate CDN domains simultaneously, which slows page load times and creates broken image risk any time one of those external services changes their URL structure.
Every product photo on the Mckayla Nails & Spa site is named “Untitled design” — Canva's default export filename. The images were never properly named before being uploaded. The site pulls from three different CDN domains at once. This isn't a maintained website — it's a draft that went live.
Owensboro has a growing nail salon market. Clients comparing options want to see actual work — real photos of services, real results. A gallery full of images with generic filenames and slow-loading CDN dependencies undercuts the salon's ability to convert browsers into bookings.
The Business
Mckayla Nails & Spa offers nail and spa services in Owensboro, Kentucky. The salon created its own website — using Canva for graphics and uploading images directly — but the setup was done without a professional web workflow. The result is a site that functions on the surface but has technical problems that quietly degrade performance and credibility.
The three-CDN image loading issue is invisible to a casual visitor but costs the salon every time someone loads the page on a slow connection or the external CDN goes down. These are the technical problems that accumulate over time and eventually cause images to break silently.
What We Found
Default Canva export filenames on every product photo, images loaded from three different CDN domains simultaneously, and all the hallmarks of a site that was assembled without professional oversight.
“Untitled design” — Default Canva Filenames Never Changed
Every product photo on the site uses the default Canva export filename: “Untitled design.png” or a variant. Canva uses this filename when you export a design without changing it — it is the default, the fallback for a design that was never properly named. This means the images were exported directly from Canva and uploaded to the site without any of the basic file management that professional web production requires. Search engines use image filenames as a ranking signal — “Untitled design” tells Google nothing useful about the salon.
Images Loaded From Three Different CDN Domains
The site pulls images from its own hosting, plus two external CDN domains simultaneously. Every additional domain the browser has to connect to adds latency — DNS lookup, TCP connection, TLS handshake — before a single image byte is transferred. Three separate domains means three times the connection overhead. When any one of those external CDNs changes its URL structure or goes down, images break silently with no warning to the owner.
Signs of a Site Assembled Without Professional Setup
The combination of default export filenames, multi-CDN image loading, and the general disorganization of the site's asset structure are textbook signs of a DIY site assembled quickly without a professional web workflow. Each issue individually is minor. Together, they add up to a site that loads slowly, breaks silently, and doesn't perform as well as it should in search results.
What We'd Build
A professionally built nail salon website for Owensboro — properly named images, all assets served from a single optimized source, and a site that loads fast and stays fast without depending on three external CDNs that could break at any time.
Properly Named, SEO-Optimized Images
Every image named descriptively — “mckayla-nails-spa-gel-manicure-owensboro.jpg” instead of “Untitled design.png.” Image alt text, captions, and filenames all working together as search signals instead of against them.
Single-Source Image Hosting — No Multi-CDN Dependencies
All images served from one optimized source — no external CDN dependencies that can break silently. Fast load times on every connection, on every device, without the fragility of three different hosting providers.
Professional Web Production — Built to Last
A site built with the workflow and standards of professional web development — organized assets, clean code, maintainable structure — so it stays fast and functional for years without silent breakage.

The Opportunity
Mckayla Nails & Spa has a real salon with real services to show. The problem is not the quality of the work — it is the quality of the presentation. A gallery of slow-loading, generically-named images from multiple CDNs does not convert the way a fast, professionally-built photo gallery does.
The technical issues are invisible to the owner but visible in the metrics: slow load times, silent image breakage, poor SEO signal from unnamed files. A properly built site fixes all of these simultaneously — and in Owensboro's nail salon market, a faster, more professional-looking site is an immediate advantage.
