You may have a gorgeous website, but how to know if it is actually reaching its high conversion potential? Good question, huh? (read until the end [freebie alert!⚠️])

These are 6 things your website should have (in order of importance) to bring you consistent sales:

🌊1. It’s clean and uncluttered. Your visitors don’t have to think about where to go or what to do next.

🌊2. Your site is monitored for security vulnerabilities or slow speed daily.

🌊3. Your website is fully mobile optimised.

🌊4. Each page has a clear goal and is designed in a way that your visitors effortlessly follow the path.

🌊5. All your pages have SEO.

🌊6. Your site has an SSL certificate.

Ok, and how do you make sure your site has all of these?

The answer is: Run a Website Audit.

A website audit is a comprehensive analysis of every corner of your website, the front and back end.

Because the truth is that sometimes we think we need to do a complete rebrand, or have a more modern design, when most of the times, it is all about the user experience when they are on our website (which is determined by speed, optimization, and strategic design), and also how easy is for people to find you in the ocean of sites out there.

You can start auditing your website right now, we’ve created this Free Website Audit Checklist for you, you can download it in our bio!

“How is my website really performing?” - Check these 3 key metrics to know the answer:Bounce rate
The longer a visitor stays on your website, the more chances you have of having a conversion. This is why bounce rate is SO important.

As a rule of thumb, a bounce rate in the range of 26 to 40 percent is excellent and ideal. 41 to 55 percent is roughly average. 56 to 70 percent is higher than average.

You can check your bounce rate in Google Analytics.

Top Pages
Here you can see which of your pages have more visitors. This metrics allow you to see if the pages that are promoting your services or have conversion driven CTA’s are amongst the most visited of your site. If not, time to make some edits!

Unique visitors
This metric shows you how many new visitors your site has. It basically shows your growth. Returning visitors are important, but new ones increase your site's popularity. You can view your unique audience on each page individually.

You can check all these metrics in your Google Analytics account.

How deeply do you believe in your dreams and the business you are building?✨

It is very easy to reflect on how much we are believing in ourselves by seeing how much we are actually investing in ourselves and the things we most believe in.

So when it comes to a brand for your business, are you going all in? Because you see, branding is not about a “nice logo and cute colours”, it is really about telling your story and what your business stands for through different design elements that are then embedded with the words you put out there and the qualities of the service you provide.

So real branding creates real growth, if you are ready for it.

Let’s have a chat and tell us all about your vision, together we can make it a reality.

Who has time to waste?👀Seriously...

Even if you have a small site, you know that your site needs constant maintenance. But you can save lots of time with the 3 following tips:

⏰Work with professional web designers
Delegation is the biggest time-saving tip for your website’s maintenance and development. As web designers we have the experience and systems that make website management an oiled machine. So don’t try to reinvent the wheel!

⏰Use automation tools to keep your site optimised
Since site optimization is one of the most important maintenance tasks, you can use tools like Yoast SEO to do automatic on-page optimization by adding the all-important meta tags and social media meta descriptions to your content.

⏰Eliminate potential problems before they happen (site maintenance, back ups, etc.)
Be proactive instead of reactive. Make sure you backup your site every week at least and prevent bounce rates by making sure your site is loading quickly.
