5 Things Your Website Might Be Missing
Your website is likely to be the hub of your business showcasing who you are, what you do and how you can help your customers. Your site may be the showcase for your business also and sometimes small oversights from yourself (or your web developer) could make all the difference. Here are a few things you can check to make sure your website is responsive, easy to use and provides the best experience possible to your visitors. Let’s go!
Social Icons
Do you have an active and engaging social media strategy? Don’t miss an opportunity to let your website visitors know about it and have the chance to follow you, they are much more likely to click on a social icon asking them to follow you than jump over to their social media platforms and search for you themselves. Make it easy for them to remember you. The chances of people clicking through to your social are a million times higher if you have a button on your website.
Calls to Action.
A good call to action can mean the difference between a sale and a website visitor moving on and forgetting about your services. If you are providing offers, website discounts, or a sale, don’t be scared to ask your visitors to click in and take a closer look. This is also a good way to direct visitors to important pages or content that isn’t immediately visible on your website.
Blogs
Professionally written, relevant content is an important and effective part of any marketing strategy and letting your customers know you are an authority in your niche. Regular informative blogs are an excellent way to gain traffic to your website and keep your audience coming back for more.
Contact Details
There is nothing more frustrating as a customer than trying to contact a company for more information or about a new/existing order and the business contact details are out of date. Ensure your information is prominently and correctly displayed to avoid losing custom or sales.
