Is Your Website Scaring Customers Away? 4 Signs It's Time for a Change
The Internet changes every few months. If your site remembers the pre-smartphone era, you are likely losing money every day.
Many entrepreneurs treat a website like a leaflet – "I made it, I have it, enough". Unfortunately, an outdated website often does more harm than good, suggesting to the customer that your company has stopped in time.
Self-diagnosis: Does this sound familiar?
"You can't read it on a phone"
If you have to "pinch" the screen to zoom in, the customer leaves after 3 seconds. Lack of RWD (responsiveness) is a disqualification today.
"It takes ages to load"
We live in a culture of immediacy. If a page loads longer than 3 seconds, you lose about 40% of users.
"I'm ashamed to show it"
If you avoid giving out your URL because the design looks dated (e.g., 2010), it's a sign your image is suffering.
"I'm afraid of viruses"
Old CMS systems without updates are open doors for hackers. A modern website means data security (yours and your clients').
