If you’re thinking about updating your website, you’re already one step ahead in the game of “Online Presence”! Many businesses fail to realize the importance of keeping their website updated, fresh, current, and relevant. They mistakenly think they can put a lot of effort into building their website and then take a “Set & Forget” attitude about it. Sure, that may give you a presence in the digital world, but it won’t do much for the success of your website, or business, for that matter. Let’s take a look at some of the things you may want to consider as you plan your updates. This article explores the intersection of audience, technology, and experience.
For most businesses, this will not have changed since launching their website. However, there’s no reason to overlook this consideration. It’s a good opportunity to review your website’s analytics and see who is genuinely interested in what you’re offering. Perhaps your target market isn’t who you originally thought it would be; thus, there may be room for adjustments in your copy or images that will be better suited to the people visiting your site, helping to convert them into buyers.
Another way to look at this is that there’s a possibility your current content isn’t crafted appropriately to attract the audience you prefer to target. If you’re unsure, there are plenty of marketing/copywriting specialists who will be eager to help you evaluate the message you’re delivering and assist you with re-crafting it to be more appropriate to your goals.
There’s more to engaging your audience than just the words you use. New technologies are emerging all the time — things that consumers quickly come to expect from companies that want their business. People enjoy using innovative technologies, and that includes app and website updates that enable them to find what they are looking for more quickly and easily. If you’re keeping up with these advances, you’re more likely to be perceived as a savvy business that’s keen to meet the market’s demands.
Here are three new web design trends to be mindful of for 2019.
There are many other trends to explore. Just be cautious not to confuse them with fads that may not stick around long. Consider the trends and suggestions that you find valuable and incorporate them into your own website design.
This is another area that considers your consumers. User Experience (UX) is one of the most critical aspects of your website to get right. Visitors want to use sites that are easy to navigate and allow them to complete purchases quickly and easily. Have you reviewed your current transaction process? Have you gone through it to see how it actually works? Here’s a list of things for you to check.
Again, there are several User Experience (UX) design elements that you can incorporate into your website with an update. It comes down to choosing the ones that are most applicable to your business, the market you represent, and the audience you aim to attract.
Ultimately, you have a wide range of options to choose from when it comes to web design elements. It can be a little overwhelming to know which ones are best for your business and the type of website you have.
What do YOU find most helpful, appealing, or attractive when using websites? If you’re unsure, consider sitting down with a pen and paper while visiting your favorite businesses’ websites, as well as those of your competitors. Write down what you like and what you don’t like, then compare yours to see how it stacks up.
