Make a Website User-Friendly and Mobile Friendly
First thing, take few seconds and pen down the things about your behavior while browsing the internet like – how you will be frustrated by zooming on a mobile phone to read the content, how you will react to broken links, how you will be annoyed with frequent ads and pop-ups, and where you will search for the contact information. All these will help you to create a user-friendly website.
And then it comes to Mobile-friendliness. As you know, Google is now giving more preference to mobile responsive websites, after the rollout of the Core Vitals Algorithm. This means you need to design your site in such a way that it should be compatible with all mobile gadgets.
Choose A Domain Name
You need to choose a domain name that matches your brand name and somewhat describes the nature of your business. Make sure to choose a domain name that is:
- Easy to type
- Easy to Remember, and make it short & simple
- Avoid numbers and hyphens
- Try to use keywords within your domain name
- Target your area
- Choose a domain extension that fits your business
Follow these steps to pick the right domain name for your business.
Present a Website Content
While thinking about web design, we think of text, images, videos, font style, and so on. But how much content should be on the website and how to present the content on the website matters a lot. You need to organize the content in such a way that makes it easy for your visitors to get the content and be engaged.
If your business depends on receiving calls from your visitors, then you need to put the contact information where they can find it easily. Preferably, it can be at the top of the homepage. So that your visitors don’t have to surf the entire website to find your contact number and address.
Make an Attractive Website
Your website should reflect the theme of your brand. The first impression has the power to turn website visitors into customers. This is the reason, why you need to make your website attractive. Design your home page with a simple and unique design, as it will be a standing anchor for your entire site.
To make your website visually appealing, you can need to put more focus on:-
- Design and color
- Pictures and Graphics
- Usability
- Consistency
Basic Requirements for a Website
Basic Requirements for a Website include:
- A brief description of who you are
- Contact us page
- Chunks of information about the services and products you offer
- Easy navigation tabs
- Customer feedback and testimonials
Even though there are much more requirements to create a website, the above listed are the basic requirement for creating an impactful website that satisfies the client’s demand
Make My Website Look Neat and Clean
To make the website look neat and clean, you need to maintain a good balance of text and graphics.
Make correct use of headings, subheadings, bullets, or lists to break up text to present your website in a neat and clean way, as it makes it easy for readers to read.
Don’t overuse different fonts, and colors, as it makes the website looks clumsier and will distract the focus of the webpage.
Limited use of graphics, and short paragraphs are easier to read, as well as, it helps in improving the mobile responsiveness of the website.
This boosts your website’s ranking on the search engine results page.
Improve the Website Navigation
People scan webpages from left to right and top to bottom, so put the navigation menu where people look for.
You can try it at the top of the page. Use the drop-down option under each top-level category to have clean and organized navigation.
Avoid the top-level navigation menu to 5 with the related subpages organized under them.
What is a Good Speed for a Website?
You want your website loading speed to be 2 to 3 seconds because 40% of consumers will wait for 3 seconds and if your site still loading means,
they will switch to the next website. So, how fast your website loads matters a lot, or else mobile website speed affects your business.
Even if your website is 100% perfectly designed and your page speed is not up to the mark means, it’s just like null and void.
Recent statistics revealed that nearly 85.5% of users leave the website if it loads slowly. And, page loading speed affects the purchase decision of nearly 70% of online shoppers.
So, make sure to optimize your webpage for a good page speed.
Put Call to Action on Website
Make sure to put call-to-actions above the fold, so that readers don’t have to scroll down to find the ways to contact you.
You need to give them a call to action on each page, as they may find something interesting in your pages, which entice them to take some actions – either to contact you,
fill out the form, or subscribe for newsletters, etc. So, put a noticeable invitation on all pages – it can be– a clickable button or clear verbiage with contact numbers.
