First impressions are everything and your website is often your prospective customer’s first impression of your business. What does it say about you? Many companies have websites that are working against them instead of for them. When a customer enters your website, two things should be obvious immediately: what services you offer and how your services can solve your customer’s problem.
People want solutions to their problems quickly. The average person is not going to browse around on your website for information. If a potential customer is not quickly able to identify how you can help them, they are going to lose interest and bounce. Once they’ve left your site, it’s unlikely you’re going to get them back.
So how can you keep customers on your site in the first place? And even more importantly, how can you encourage them to pick up the phone and give you a call? It starts with knowing your ideal customer. What do their demographics look like? Do your services cater to the younger millennial crowd or are you trying to attract affluent middle-aged businessmen and women? It may seem irrelevant but these pieces of information matter when designing a website.
Once you know who your intended audience is, you are better able to design your website to cater to them a better user experience. Effective websites do so much more than just capture a customer’s attention with eye-catching graphics and creative copy. Of course, your website should appeal to your potential customer’s eye, look good and be easy to navigate, but that’s only part of it. Your intended customer is coming to you with a problem needing to be solved. Your website should outline solutions to help that customer solve their problem quickly and efficiently.

Why Is Search Engine Optimization Important?
Not everyone understands how to make sure a website is search engine optimized, or why it’s important. You can have the most attractive website in the world but if it’s not being picked up and found on major search engines like Bing, Yahoo and Google, what’s it worth really?
Search engine optimization is the process of maximizing the number of visitors to your website by ensuring your site appears high on the list of results returned by a particular search engine (or ideally, all of the major search engines).
This can be done in a number of ways but as anyone with SEO experience knows, it’s incredibly time consuming! Building, maintaining and optimizing a website to increase your web page ranking results is in and of itself a full time job for many. It involves long hours of keyword research (not to mention years of experience to understand and interpret), writing copy and publishing high quality images structured around that keyword research. Then, pushing the site out and promoting it on the appropriate channels including social media. Content you add to your website should be developed to answer your audience’s most important questions.
As a business owner, it’s likely you just don’t have the time (who could blame you), knowledge or experience needed to build a successful website – and attract qualified leads to it. That’s just not something you do everyday. And honestly, your knowledge and expertise is better suited to running your business smoothly and managing the day-to-day operations. The time you would spend developing a website could be time allocated to activities that will help your business scale and grow.
Don’t just make a first impression, make a lasting impression. Invest in a website that is professionally built and easy for your intended customers to navigate. The site needs to quickly address and answer your customers’ most important questions – and encourage them to pick up the phone and give you a call to learn more about your services.
