Planning to rebuild your website? Digireload suggests that you follow these practices for a successful website revamp.
  • Is it mobile friendly? It needs to be! According to Blue Corona, up to 70 percent of web traffic happens on a mobile device and 69 percent of smartphone users say they are more likely to buy from companies with mobile sites that easily address their questions or concerns.

 

  • Is the copy compelling? As visitors browse your website, do your words grab their attention and keep them wanting more? According to Conversion XL, users spend about 5.59 seconds reading your website’s written content. In addition to making it easy to digest, if you capture their attention effectively, they’ll stay for longer than six seconds, too.

 

  • Is it optimized for search engines? You want to design your website for your target audience, but if users can’t find it, they can’t be wowed by it. By folding in SEO best practices, like frontend and backend SEO, meta descriptions and more, you’ll make it that much easier for potential customers to find your website.
