How to Tell If It’s Time for a Website Redesign
Your website is often the first impression potential customers get of your business. But just like a car or smartphone, websites need maintenance (and sometimes a complete overhaul).
Not sure if it’s time for a redesign? Here are the top signs your website needs a refresh and how we can help, even if your budget is tight.
1. Your Website Looks Outdated
Design trends change over time. If your site still looks like it was built in 2014, it could be hurting your credibility. Today’s users expect clean, modern layouts, easy navigation, and mobile-friendly designs. If your site feels clunky or dated, it may be time for a visual and functional upgrade.
2. It’s Not Mobile-Friendly
With over half of all web traffic coming from smartphones, a mobile-optimized site is no longer optional…it’s essential. If your current website doesn’t adjust well on phones or tablets, you’re likely losing customers and rankings on Google.
3. Slow Load Speeds Are Driving Visitors Away
Website speed isn’t just about user experience. It affects your SEO too. If your pages take more than a few seconds to load, your visitors (and Google) may bounce. A redesign with speed in mind can help keep users engaged and increase conversions.
4. Your Branding Has Changed
If you’ve updated your logo, colors, services, or brand message, but your website doesn’t reflect those changes, it creates confusion. Consistency builds trust. A website redesign ensures your online presence aligns with your current business identity.
5. You’re Not Showing Up in Google Search
Your site might look decent, but if it’s not optimized for search engines (SEO), you’re missing out on valuable traffic. Modern redesigns include on-page SEO best practices to help your business rank higher and get found faster.
6. It’s Hard to Update or Manage
If it takes forever to make simple text or photo changes, or if you’re constantly calling your old web guy, you need a better system. We build all of our websites using user-friendly platforms so updates can be completed with a quick turnaround time.
7. You’re Not Getting Enough Leads or Sales
Ultimately, your website should work for you. If it’s not generating new business, it’s time to analyze what’s not working. A well-executed redesign can improve your call-to-actions, highlight your services more effectively, and guide visitors toward taking the next step.
