4 Signs that It’s Time to Redesign Your Website

The design of your website can make or break your online presence. When visitors find your website difficult to use or navigate, or they feel it’s unappealing, they will leave your website in no time to find another business. 

A website redesign could help your business gain a competitive edge, generate leads and grow your business. Here are some the top 4 signs it’s time to hire a web design agency in Leeds to redesign your website.

Low Rankings in the Search Engines

If your website does not show up in the top of the search results, it’s unlikely they’d find you. In fact, 95% of search users don’t go past the first page. 

So if your website has low search engine ranking, it’s time to plan a website redesign. Old websites typically feature crammed up keywords and other defunct (and other black hat) SEO strategies. 

You’re Losing Visitors 

If you notice that your visitors never go past the homepage, the bounce rates are simply too high or the conversion rates are too low, these are signs that your website needs a redesign. 

It’s likely that visitors are unable to find the information they’re searching for. Furthermore, if the website has an unappealing design or the design looks outdated, your visitors are likely to leave. Either way, high bounce rates and low conversions aren’t good for business. 

Long Load Times

If your website takes too long to load, your websites will leave in search of websites that offer a better experience. It should not take any more than 5 seconds to load. If it does, it’s time for a website redesign. 

Your Website is Not Mobile Friendly

In the past, all your visitors would look you up on a desktop computer or a laptop. However, with more and more people using mobile devices to access the internet, you must ensure your website is mobile responsive.

In 2019, a mobile-responsive is a necessity. If your website is difficult to use on a mobile device, imagine their frustration. If your websites have to squint or zoom-pinch to read the text, your website certainly needs a mobile.
