Stop sweeping it under the rug. Ignoring your site problems won’t make them go away – upgrading means taking action.
If you want to be successful online and gain credibility, you need a website and some SEO services. However, just having a website is not enough to cut through the noise. Web design and user experience (UX) play a vital role in the success of your website and online presence, i.e. it is essential to ensure that your website is fast and responsive (having a fast host helps). Websites carry credibility and 75% of people base their opinion on how your business’s website looks.
Content, Structure, Design.
Along with web design and its structure, that is not all that makes up the user experience. Your website must be informative and have what the user is looking for; otherwise, they’ll bounce. Content is king, the design and the structure of your website are the royalties – together (if well planned and executed) they sell almost anything.
Did you know that the way how users interact with your website helps search engines rank your website? This is done according to how relevant it and its content is. Yes, that’s true, if the search engines realise users are having a bad time on your website, they will stop telling them about you. Why? The answer is simple, the search engines are the messenger, but no messenger wants to carry a bad message. So it is clear that if your website sucks, the search engines know, and they will push your website to the side when delivering search results.
“How can I upgrade my website?”
The biggest misconception about websites is that they are DIY projects, while most blog sites function very well with the author managing them – we can assure you that the websites of Forbes, Coca-Cola, and Mercedes-Benz, for example, were not built by their CEOs.
The best recommendation is to have a web specialist look at the downfalls and improve on them, and the working aspects and capitalise on them.
