A Better Website: Use These Website Improvement Tools


Filed under: Website Improvement

It’s unfortunate that so many people believe that once their website is live, it’s live…and that’s it. All done, brush the hands off, get back to work.  Leave the website as it is, let it do its thing. It looks great, there’s no more work that needs to be done here, now let’s focus on other parts of our business.

And so it follows that, not surprisingly, most people have no clue as to how their website is performing. They don’t know if their website is working for them, if it’s not living up to its potential, or if it’s, gulp, actually working against them.

Websites make money, right?

A website has the potential to dramatically improve your business’s profits—but can only do so if you discover what parts work and what parts don’t.  Every website in the world has the potential to perform better and generate more profits, which is why it’s so critical to continually track, tweak, and strategically improve your website over time.  If you don’t, you’re leaving money on the table. Period.

This is so important I’ll say it again in a different way: The sole way to ensure your website is doing as much as possible for your business is to track and improve, track and improve, track and improve.

Where do I start? There’s so much to do. Too much.

It’s true. Trying to figure out how to better your business website can seem like overwhelming, time consuming work when you haven’t studied and immersed yourself in the world of website improvement. How do you do it? What should you focus on first?

  • Try to collect more leads?
  • Increase your online sales?
  • Improve your website’s visibility?
  • Speed up your website?
  • Build better relationships with your prospects?
  • Work on increasing your link popularity?
  • Figure out what keywords you should rank for?
  • “Optimize” your website? (And what does that mean, anyhow?)

There’s a lot to consider, and without the right guidance it can be frustrating trying to figure out where to start.

The needle-in-a-haystack nature of website improvement is one of the reasons so many business owners choose to hire pros, like our Colorado web design and internet marketing company) to do the work for them or help guide them through the process step by step.
