It’s no secret that the pandemic has forced a lot of businesses to move online. Whether you already had a website or not, more people are likely to visit it now while the majority of the world remains indoors and socially distanced. According to a study conducted by Stanford University, “75% of users admit to making judgments about a company’s credibility based on their website design.” The study goes on to state that “945 of first impressions are design-related.” Considering those numbers, it may be time to take a second look at your site and see if it could use a little sprucing up. 

What Your Website Visitors Think

Alright, so you’re sold on the fact you need an impressive website or it’ll cost you. Literally. You could be losing potential clients and dollars in revenue that you’re not even aware of because you haven’t taken the time to update your site. Well, what makes a good website? We’ve broken it down for you here based on the user-data of those who frequent sites and they had this to say.

What Makes a Good Site?

An attractive website is about less, not more. It needs to be well-structured without over-inundating its visitors on text, ads, or information. It should have consistency with themes in terms of color and typography chosen for the pages. It should also have keywords to be optimized, making your page easier to be found when people search for a particular product or service online. Sites also need to be optimized for mobile phones, since so many of us shop and browse the web from our smartphones today. When all of this is taken into account, then you can begin to attract more visitors and convert leads of those who do land on your page. While it’s important to have a presence on social media, you still need a link to your actual site. Think of it as the digital brick-and-mortar storefront for your operations. How it looks matters.
