Website Redesign: Update the User Experience

By ||Published On: June 23rd, 2020||Categories: Content, Design, Food for Thought, Marketing, Website Development||

A website redesign process may seem like a large expense at first, but think of it as an investment into your marketing efforts.

How is your website representing your business? 

Benefits of website redesign include an updated design, effortless user experience, and SEO to increase your company’s visibility on Google. Think about your experiences while visiting websites. Were you able to click through sites and find what you were looking for easily? Did the opposite also occur where you were unable to navigate through the site easily, and left the website before getting what you wanted? If your website has a high bounce rate, this could be what your users are experiencing as well. If your users are able to easily navigate through your site and develop a thorough understanding of your products and services, you will immediately achieve the ROI in your website redesign.

When is it time to redesign your website?

For websites currently using Firefly’s Website Gadget (our proprietary content management system), the time has come to consider a website redesign using WordPress (an industry-standard open-source CMS).

Other indicators that it may be time to redesign your website are frequent breaks, an inability to add new products, services, or plugins, or a low SEO ranking. Below are the advantages of redesigning your site through WordPress:

The Benefits of Website Maintenance:

Let’s use the analogy of maintenance needed on a house or a car. If we don’t tend to the upkeep, unforeseen problems may arise along with high costs. A monthly maintenance retainer is beneficial in keeping your website updated. The more you keep up with your website, the less time and money you will end up spending all at once on an overhaul.
