In our eyes, a website should be professional, easy to navigate, but most importantly, a powerful marketing tool that allows potential clients to learn more about what your company has to offer. Take a look at this blog post to see what things you should keep in mind when planning your design.
- Know your target audience
You know who your target demographic is. We know how to cater to them. - What is the goal of your website?
Will you be selling products? Will you be displaying your inventory online, but not selling? Do you want to display only your basic contact information and services? - Once potential clients and customers are at your site, what will they be looking for?
Now that they are at your site, what will you be trying to convey to them? Will they be looking for information about your newest service or will they be buying a product? - Content
