8 Signs Your Business Needs a New Website
Websites age faster than most businesses realise. What looked modern five years ago may now be slow, hard to use on a phone and invisible on Google. Here are eight signs it is time for a new one.
1. It looks bad on a phone
If you need to pinch and zoom, or buttons are tiny, mobile visitors will leave.
2. It is slow
A page that takes more than a few seconds on mobile data loses people before they see your offer.
3. You are embarrassed to share the link
If you send customers to Instagram instead of your website, your website is not doing its job.
4. You cannot update it yourself
Changing a price or opening hours should take minutes, not an email to a developer and a week of waiting.
5. No online booking, ordering or quotes
Customers expect to act straight away. A contact form that someone answers tomorrow is no longer enough.
6. It does not bring enquiries
If you cannot remember the last time a customer said “I found you on your website”, something is wrong.
7. Security warnings or old software
A “Not secure” warning, or software that has not been updated in years, puts visitors off and creates real risk.
8. Your business has changed
New services, new locations or a new brand deserve a website that tells the current story.
Redesign or rebuild?
Sometimes a fresh design on the same system is enough; sometimes a lightweight rebuild is faster and cheaper over time. Answer four quick questions below and we will tell you which makes sense for your business, free.
