Why Your Website MUST Be Mobile Friendly

“Why is it important that my website is mobile friendly?”  Mobile-Phone

Why? Because your customers and visitors are increasingly accessing the Internet via tablets and mobile phones..

In 2013,  access by mobile devices surpassed desktop PCs and laptops.  Mobile devices accounted for 55% of consumer shopping time spent online.  This surpassed both desktop and laptop access.

However, Mobile is Not Just a Must for eCommerce Sites………

A 2012 Google survey found that:

  • 74% of visitors were more likely to return to mobile friendly websites
  • 61% were likely to leave if a site wasn’t mobile friendly, and
  • 67% were more likely to buy at a mobile friendly website

If your site isn’t mobile-friendly, you’re losing business.

Three reasons, your website must be mobile friendly now:

1. It’s What Your Customers Want – and They Expect You to Provide It

2. Google May Penalize You if You Don’t Have a Mobile Friendly Website

3. You’ll Lose Business (If You Haven’t Already)

Web Design of Volusia specializes in designing websites that are mobile friendly.

Ten Great Topics to Blog About!

megaphoneBusiness blogging has many advantages. Blogging gives your company a chance to engage with your customers in a less formal setting.     A blog serves as an online platform for you to let your customers and potential customers in on some behind-the-scenes details about your company, highlight new products, announce special promotions and more. It can also be great for your SEO efforts. However, just creating a blog won’t do anything; you need to actually write in it, a lot. Many companies blog weekly or even daily, which means you need some great content to keep your readers interested. Are you dealing with writer’s block every time you sit down to compose a blog?

Here are 10 great topics to help you get started.

• Summarize an industry-related news story. At the end of your post, link to the original news story and say something like “read the full article here.” If you do this often, people will start to think of you as a resource for the latest updates in the industry, which means they’ll check back often to stay in-the-know.

• Put the spotlight on an employee or current customer. This allows others to get to know people who use your product or service as well as your employees. It humanizes the company which makes it easier for people to trust and relate to you.

How to Select a Designer for Your Website

iStock_000005932499XSmallYour website is your calling card for your online presence and you should be proud of it. You site  should provide relevant information along with pleasant viewing to all its visitors. A quality web development designer can assist you in achieving this goal.

With advancements in the field of internet marketing and web technologies, now the market is over-flooded with web designers. Therefore, selection of a good web designer can be a tricky task.  When making a decision on your designer, the following points should be considered: 

    • Experience- this factor plays a very important factor while looking for the best web design company. A web design company with years of experience is undoubtedly competent in understanding customer needs and requirements, rendering relevant solutions. Experience helps in honing expertise that directly impacts productivity. 

 

    • The Designers Portfolio – always make sure to check a designer’s  portfolio. Go through the range of service packages provided by the company along with their expertise level in every domain of web designing. The richer the service portfolio of the company, the better the chance of fulfilling all of your site needs under one roof.  

 

    • Designer’s Method of Working Clients – inquiring as to how the designer interacts with clients is important.    Talk about their working methods and go with the designer that takes a systematic and simplified approach to the design process. This will save your time and money!

 

    • Reputation- gauging out the reputation of a web design company is probably one of the trickiest tasks.  Go through the company website, check their clientele and accomplishments and don’t miss out on their client’s reviews

 

    • Cost effectiveness- this is another important factor that goes into selecting the best web development company. It is vital to measure the cost effectiveness of the company’s web design solutions.   Ask for quotes. Compare your needs with the company quote to get cost effective web design solutions at competitive rates. 

All of the above will assist you with your selection.  But, also be sure to retain a web designer who takes a personal interest in your online endeavors and will work with you to achieve your “dream” website in an economical and time-effective way.
