Affordable web design in Wickford
First impressions count. Your website is your shop window on the internet, so it’s critical that this represents your Wickford business the right way. A badly designed website that’s hard to navigate is going to be a complete waste of time and money, so you really need to think of your website as a key investment in your business.
I’ll work with you to understand your goals for your Wickford, and analyse your existing website (if you have one) before researching other websites in your industry or niche to identify what works and what doesn’t.
Bespoke design
The website for your Wickford business will be custom-built using WordPress, the software used to power over 40% of websites on the internet. If you’d like to find out more about WordPress, I’ve written an article about the 5 reasons why I use WordPress.
The theme of your site will be designed to complement your company’s branding, using your logo and colour scheme. I will tailor your site to your exact needs, and won’t simply reconfigure pre-designed templates which is what many web designers out there do.
An interactive Google map can be displayed to help your customers locate you, and a contact form will also be included, making it simple for your prospects to get in touch.
Website navigation
Navigating your site will be simple for your visitors. If they can easily find the content they’re after, they’ll stay on your site for longer, increasing the likelihood of conversion.
Mobile friendly
Given that more people now access the internet from mobile devices than desktop computers, Google indexes and ranks sites on a ‘mobile-first’ basis, meaning those websites which aren’t optimised for mobile will get penalised, resulting in lower rankings in the search engine results.
I’ll make sure your website works perfectly on mobile and tablet as well as desktop, so your visitors can navigate your site equally well whichever device they’re using.
Website security
Your site will be designed with security in mind, and various techniques will be deployed to make it as difficult as possible for anyone to hack your site.
Your website will incorporate a free SSL certificate, telling people that their connection to your website is secure by displaying the padlock icon in their browser’s address bar.
SEO friendly
SEO – Search Engine Optimisation – is all about increasing the quantity and quality of traffic to your site through organic search engine results, rather than using pay-per-click advertising.
There are many important SEO techniques that can be used, several of which relate to the way the site is designed. For instance, search engines such as Google need to be able to crawl and index your site without any issues or errors.
I’ll ensure that your site design is SEO friendly, optimised for Google and all the other search engines.
