As a business owner, your website needs to reflect your company’s style and values. It also needs to be an asset. In other words, it should help you attract new clients. Indeed, a website can be a powerful, inexpensive marketing and advertising tool. It’s open for business 24 hours a day, seven days a week. In order for your website to work in these wonderful ways, though, it needs proper website design.
The folks at do-it-yourself website companies like Wix focus on ease and looks. They sell the idea that you can build a beautiful site with a few simple clicks. They’re sort of right! You can produce a site that looks good at a first glance with many of today’s drag-and-drop tools. At Ohio Web Tech, we’ve even had some fun playing around with such tools. But what’s under the hood of these websites tells a different story.
Loading speed is critical for your website’s success.
In order for your website to become the business asset you want it to be, it needs to be more than a pretty display. It needs to play well with Google and other search engines. By this, we mean it needs to load fast. Recent studies show that 40% of users leave a website if it takes more than 3 seconds to load. Three seconds! That’s all your website gets!
DIY website builders create heavy, slow sites that Google–and users– often leave. Search engines love sites that are easy for web crawlers to read, not ones that are easy for humans to build. If your website is slow, it’s not performing well in searches. That means you’re losing out on potential customers searching for your products or services.
In order to ensure your site speed meets user expectations, you need a professional web developer to work on the back end design of your site. Don’t be fooled by pretty sites. What you see is only half of what you get with a website.
Get the most out of your website. Hire a local professional web designer.
Don’t risk making a negative first impression with a poorly designed website. Hire a company with the experience and knowledge to make your online presence outshine the competition’s.
