Start with Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Effectively building a site with Search Engine Optimization, or SEO, allows you to organically generate site traffic for no charge. The key aspect of SEO is selecting keywords relevant to your products and services. These keywords should be based on high usage, low competition and relevancy to your site content. Once the keywords are selected, you then combine that with clean coding, search engine friendly copy, effective titles, and much more. Unfortunately, if you are not an SEO expert, this aspect of your web design will be overlooked, crippling your ranking on search engines like Google and Yahoo!. The SEO Specialists at TheeDigital know the latest web design techniques to optimize your search engine rankings that do-it-yourself software simply overlooks.Keep the User in Mind
It is paramount that your site is easy to navigate and important information is readily available. Site visitors will normally “bounce” to your competitor’s website if what they are looking for is hard to find or the customer is forced to think too much. One of the primary goals of your site is to keep usability as simple as possible. This can be accomplished by following these three basic user-friendly fundamentals.- Search Tool- Potential customers can quickly and easily find information about your products or services.
- Intelligent Yet Understandable Content- Write content that is easy to understand and never talk down to your audience.
- Simple Site Navigation- Visitors can easily surf around your site without unnecessary clicks or scrolls.
Make it Look Good
For a website to convert visitors to customers it needs to be aesthetically pleasing. Our web designers know how to strike a balance between color schemes and images so it’s easy on the eyes. We realize the importance of a clean, consistent look and utilize the latest color strategies that will make a positive impression on the visitor. Many “do-it-yourself” website creation applications allow you to cram as much information as possible, but the designers at TheeDigital know that many times “less-is-more” and that the most important elements should stand out!Use Quality Copy
The website copy is your voice, so it is extremely important that you use it effectively. Potential customers are coming to your site for more information about your products or services and it needs to be clear, concise and to the point. In addition, it should never have misspellings or grammatical errors and should be written in the same theme or “voice” throughout the site.
