5 Critical Things Your Website is Missing
Building
a Website can be challenging- There is a site map to define, usability to plan
around, content to share, code to write, and a whole host of pages to account
for. But amidst all the elements that make up a website, it is important to not
lose focus on some of the most important things that could get overlooked.
1. An Immediate Statement of What You Do
It seems obvious, yet how often is it missed? Website
visitors bounce from site to site and want to know if your site matches what
they are looking for. Even large companies that we would presume most people
know what they do, will make this immediate statement upon entering their site.
2. Headlines that Captivate
Just like a newspaper, the right headlines are vital.
They make the difference between engaging the visitor and letting them go. It’s
the element on the page that passes the “quick scan” test as users scan rapidly
what is before them to see if something piques their interest. A clever headline
will catch their attention and draw them into the text below it. You will find
that some of the best headlines are on news-related sites. Of course, your
captivating headlines should be about the information you want to share, but
you get the idea. Make them interesting!
3. Transparency
Some companies don’t like talking about themselves or
sharing too much information on a personal level, but being real, honest and
open helps prospects gain a comfort level of those they are considering doing
business with. Some “About Us” pages are so discreet that it doesn’t tell
anything about the company. Don’t be afraid to open up a little and let them
see the real you. If you don’t want that, maybe there are deeper issues to work
through.
4. A Clear Call to Action
You can communicate all the great content you want, but after you communicate it to them, please make sure you give them a call-to-action (CTA). You are working
hard and possibly paying decent money to get traffic to your site, so make sure
you convert when they are there. If you are showing products, put the
add-to-cart buttons beside the product or a button for them to easily leave
their details showing their interest in that product. Otherwise, they might go
on to the next website where they will find more product information and
possibly engage with that website instead.
5. Sufficient Content
The content is good; good for search engines, good for
inquiring minds and also good for user-experience. Visitors are on your site
because they are looking for information about your company, products or services,
don’t deceive them. Make your site resourceful, and give them what they are
looking for. You don’t have to write a book but give them enough to show that
you are a professional, and stir their appetite for more. Build credibility, so
your visitors understand that you know what you’re talking about.
Summary
In summary, be sure to:
1. Have that immediate
statement of what you do to qualify yourself
2. Sprinkle in those
engaging headlines
3. Let them see the real you
4. Don’t forget to ask for
the sale, allow them to convert
5. Make sure your site is
resourceful with adequate content and information
