Building an effective website - Things to consider!
1) Design - If your website looks crappy then people will tend to have less credibility towards your company. First impressions matter. It will make a huge difference with visitors making a purchase decision based on how your website looks.
2) User interface - When people visit your website, they should clearly know where to go and click to find the right information they need. It should be easy to navigate and display a clear call to action. If you lose a sale because someone cant’ find the Checkout button to buy a product due to a messy user interface, then ask yourself….What's the point of them visiting your website in the first place?
If people cannot find the information within a short period of time, they will immediately leave to search for another website, quite possibly your competitors. Remember, it is very easy for visitors to leave your website. It's just one click.
3) SEO (Search Engine Optimization) - SEO has become a must for websites to be successful. If you have fancy looking sports car but it's placed in a garage of a remote house, then what's the use?
If people can't find your website and no traffic is coming in, then your brilliant design and strategic interface won’t matter. Being found on Google and Yahoo with targeted keywords are one of the most essential parts in having a successful website. Try optimizing your website for Google first since it will bring you the most traffic, however, it is the most difficult search engine to optimize due to fierce competition. Google only has limited space on the first page. Its valuable real estate so SEO takes time and energy. Make a short and long-term plan to find the right key words you want to optimize.
