If your website is slow, not mobile-friendly, or generating zero enquiries — it's costing you money. Here are the 10 warning signs to watch for.
Your website is often the first thing potential customers see. If it looks outdated or works poorly, you're losing business. Here are 10 signs it's time for a redesign.
Over 60% of web traffic in the UK comes from mobile devices. If your site doesn't look good on a phone, most visitors will leave immediately.
If your site takes more than 3 seconds to load, you're losing nearly half your visitors. Google also penalises slow sites in search rankings.
A website that doesn't generate leads isn't doing its job. If your phone isn't ringing and your inbox is empty, the site needs work.
If your site looks like it was built in 2015, visitors will assume your business is behind the times too.
If changing a phone number requires calling a developer, your CMS is failing you.
Browsers now warn visitors when a site doesn't have an SSL certificate. That "Not Secure" label destroys trust instantly.
If visitors are landing on your site and leaving within seconds, something is wrong — usually design, speed, or irrelevant content.
Search your main competitors. If their websites look more professional than yours, you're at a disadvantage.
If you've added new services, changed your branding, or moved location — your site should reflect that.
If you hesitate before putting your URL on a business card, that tells you everything you need to know.
