6 Ways to Rev Up Your Website!

How many times have you performed a search online for a certain subject?  As you were visiting the websites that the search engine had chosen, you thought “Oh My Goodness, How Dreadful!! 

Creating a business Web site can be a major investment of time, money, or both. How do you make sure that you get the most out of that investment?   Keep these six Ideas in mind when creating or improving your website…

Cleanliness is next to godliness

  • Do NOT Use speckled backgrounds
  • Do NOT Use unreadable type fonts
  • NO animated gewgaws running across the website.

Catch them in the first 10 seconds.

  • DO produce a fast, effective messenger.  Splash Pages are OUT! No Enter Here button.
  • DO allow the visitor to see what the site is about or what the business does directly on the home page.
  • DO create a professional image for your company.

The first page should load FAST:

  • Do NOT take 20 seconds to load the first page especially if you only have 10 seconds to capture their interest  (that means compress and resize Photos)
  • NO plug-ins for first page. Search engines gave the visitor 765,459 results. They can go to the next website instead of downloading a plug-in.
  • NO Enter Here button. (yes, I'm repeating this one because it's THAT important.

Use a Navigation System that a 6-year-old can master.

  • DO make it extremely easy for people to find their way around your site.
  • DO make sure that your most important pages are at the top level of the website navigation

Update your site regularly with fresh information.

  • DO give visitors a reason to return to your site (if applicable)
  • DO offer important or difficult-to-find information within the industry.

Request a Free Website Review.

  • Don't know which infraction you are commiting with your website? Let us perform a 10 point review of your website and tell you how it can be improved.

I hope you have found this information helpful. If you need additional information, please contact us and we can get your website on the right track.
