When a long-established U.S. spa brand needed to strengthen its digital footprint, DevSteem built a modern, high-performing online presence — transforming Essential Hot Tubs into a top-ranking eCommerce leader in the home leisure industry.

Essential Hot Tubs, a well-known U.S. manufacturer of plug-and-play and luxury spas, had a strong retail and distribution network but lacked a centralized digital presence.
The company’s challenge was to create a dedicated, brand-owned website that could compete with large marketplaces while maintaining direct relationships with customers.
Before partnering with DevSteem, Essential Hot Tubs had minimal online visibility and no structured SEO or social content strategy. The goal was clear — to build authority, trust, and digital performance through a cohesive online identity.

DevSteem implemented a full-scale digital transformation plan, combining technical development, SEO architecture, and creative content to help Essential Hot Tubs connect directly with modern consumers.
