If you are wondering this question, then you are already further ahead in your journey of getting the most out of your website than most business owners. You understand that in most cases websites aren’t a one and done asset, they require nurturing and tending to so they can work hard in return for you. Websites are a mutually beneficial relationship between themselves and your business.
If that relationship isn’t mutual, and you are expecting results while neglecting your website’s operational needs, you are costing your business money. But why? And how can you fix it?
The hidden cost of an unoptimised website
Poor visibility means opportunities scroll right on by. If your website isn’t optimised for search engines, potential customers simply can’t find you. They’re searching for what you offer right now, but if you’re buried on page three of Google, you may as well not exist. Every day you’re invisible online is a day your competitors are capturing customers who should have been yours.
Slow websites turn people away. Research consistently shows that visitors abandon websites that take more than a few seconds to load. Slow websites frustrate potential customers, and push them towards your competitors.
Bad user experiences are damaging your reputation. Your website may look pretty at first glance, but if buttons don’t work, visuals aren’t loading quick enough and links are broken or the website doesn’t work well on phones, visitors get turned off before they have the chance to convert. Usability issues like these genuinely interested customers from being able to enquire, book, or buy, no matter how much they wanted to.
Outdated content ruins trust. An unkept website with out of date figures, old images and a sloppy design tells customers that you don’t particularly care, so why would you care about them?
