Your website is a crucial element in any marketing campaign.
We so often refer to it as a ‘shop window’ but it is much more than that today. Websites are expected to convey so much more.
When you visit a website today, you quickly judge for yourself if that site represents a company you trust, one that you would be willing to spend your money with, trust your business to, or recommend to a friend. That decision is made very quickly.
So how can a website do this for you?
There are many elements that make a website user friendly, starting with the look and feel of the site.
- Does the navigation make sense to you?
- Is the content up to date or are you looking at copy written a few years ago?
- Has it been well written?
- Is the balance between content and graphics right?
- Is there a section that allows you to find out more about the company, such as a blog?
- Is the site connected to social media so you can be more interactive if you wish?
- Does the site draw you in or make you feel that you can’t get off it quick enough?
- Is it mobile friendly or are you having to scroll around to try and get to the content?
- Is the site easy to find? How far up was the site with its search engine rankings?
- Is the site secure?
- …and so on..
