Web design hints & tips
Your website is often your customers’ first interaction with your brand.
As a small business, your website is a crucial part of your marketing and branding efforts. Visitors are coming to your website for a reason. You want to ensure they can find what they’re looking for easily, as well as giving them a fabulous user experience and taste of what your business is all about.
If you get your website wrong, it’ll cost you money in the short term, and ultimately lose even more money in potential revenue that you could be making from a well designed, properly functioning website.
Grow your bottom line with these hints & tips, then when you’re ready – get in touch!
Instead of focusing on getting your website done as soon as possible, first research your target audience in your specific market. Then, design your website around your research.
In order to be successful you need to focus on marketing your website, not a flashy design. Your design should not just be focused on bringing users in, but getting them to the right place once they reach your homepage.
What do you want users to do once they’ve found your website? Do you want them to buy, contact you, or subscribe to your e-newsletter? You need to tell visitors what their next step is. Your content should answer the question, “What’s in it for me?” with a call to action telling them what to do next.
Simply put: don’t blow your budget on your website, but do your research to ensure you’re receiving a quality product.
Don’t hire a cheap designer, let them make poor business decisions and end up with a horrible product. But don’t get distracted by expensive agencies that work with big brands – they’re not used to helping small companies who are ROI focused.
Customers expect your website to contain the latest information about your products, services, and company. When it doesn’t have this, they may assume you’re not in business any longer, or simply aren’t innovative and ahead of the competition.
If you try to please everyone you’ll likely end up not pleasing anyone. It’s best to figure out what type of customer visits your website most and focus on creating the best possible experience for them.
Your website is often your customers’ first interaction with your brand. If you don’t have design experience, do you really think you can do it justice? First impressions are everything. Don’t allow your customer to make assumptions about your business because of a poorly designed website.
