Web Design
If you think having a website that looks appealing is the same as having a website that receives user inquiries, you’re not alone. Most people think like this, and regrettably, like them, you’re also likely to end up with the former without the latter.
The primary goal of every website design is to prompt a visitor to perform an action. This also includes optimizing site speed. A beautifully designed website that takes a long time to load is designed in vain, as likely users will not stick around to see it. It is also preferred to use straightforward design as opposed to being clever in your design. For example, a two field form is preferred over a twelve field form.
For most clients, we use WordPress, as there will be no issues down the road with site lock-in, and the client can make adjustments as they see fit. However, if a client requires something more advanced, we will tell the client and will not try to force the project into a WordPress lock-in.
If you built your website a few years back and it hasn’t kept pace with your business, a rebuild is usually a more sensible starting point. Once we see what you have, we will gladly and honestly tell you if you need to redesign or rebuild your site.
