6	
  Reasons	
  Your	
  Website	
  Needs	
  a	
  Facelift	
  
	
  
The	
  look	
  and	
  feel	
  of	
  their	
  
website	
  is	
  a	
  touchy	
  subject	
  
for	
  some	
  businesses.	
  They	
  
built	
  a	
  shiny	
  new	
  site	
  a	
  few	
  
years	
  ago—at	
  a	
  pretty	
  
penny.	
  They	
  spent	
  
countless	
  hours	
  going	
  back	
  
and	
  forth	
  with	
  the	
  designer	
  
and	
  writer,	
  and	
  were	
  more	
  
relieved	
  than	
  anything	
  else	
  
when	
  the	
  site	
  finally	
  went	
  
live.	
  
	
  
Sound	
  familiar?	
  
	
  
If	
  you	
  haven’t	
  revisited	
  
your	
  website	
  in	
  awhile,	
  it	
  
may	
  be	
  time	
  to	
  take	
  
another	
  hard	
  look.	
  In	
  fact,	
  
it	
  may	
  be	
  time	
  for	
  a	
  facelift.	
  
Here’s	
  how	
  you’ll	
  know:	
  
	
  
1. The	
  design	
  is	
  outdated—something	
  a	
  website	
  programmer/designer	
  would	
  have	
  
created	
  in	
  1999.	
  The	
  look	
  and	
  feel	
  of	
  your	
  site	
  needs	
  to	
  reflect	
  current	
  design	
  
conventions	
  and,	
  at	
  the	
  very	
  least,	
  be	
  comparable	
  with	
  your	
  competitors.	
  	
  
2. The	
  copy	
  is	
  old.	
  And	
  worse,	
  it	
  isn’t	
  optimized.	
  If	
  you	
  didn’t	
  pay	
  attention	
  to	
  SEO	
  
the	
  first	
  time	
  around,	
  it’s	
  no	
  wonder	
  that	
  your	
  website	
  traffic	
  isn’t	
  what	
  it	
  could	
  
be.	
  	
  
3. The	
  images	
  need	
  to	
  be	
  retired.	
  We’ve	
  all	
  had	
  enough	
  of	
  the	
  same	
  old	
  stock	
  
photos	
  we	
  see	
  on	
  way	
  too	
  many	
  business	
  websites.	
  Have	
  you	
  considered	
  taking	
  
your	
  own	
  photographs	
  for	
  your	
  business?	
  Snap	
  your	
  own	
  shots	
  of	
  your	
  work	
  
environment,	
  products/services	
  in	
  action,	
  happy	
  clients,	
  etc.	
  
4. You’re	
  not	
  promoting	
  new	
  products/services.	
  Speaking	
  of	
  products,	
  it’s	
  
definitely	
  time	
  for	
  a	
  facelift	
  if	
  your	
  website	
  doesn’t	
  showcase	
  your	
  new	
  
products/services.	
  Prospects	
  need	
  to	
  know	
  about	
  your	
  latest	
  offerings	
  (and	
  so	
  do	
  
the	
  search	
  engines).	
  
5. There	
  are	
  no	
  social	
  media	
  buttons.	
  This	
  one	
  seems	
  obvious,	
  but	
  we	
  still	
  come	
  
across	
  businesses	
  that	
  don’t	
  include	
  connections	
  to	
  their	
  social	
  media	
  accounts.	
  If	
  
you’re	
  updating	
  your	
  social	
  media	
  regularly	
  (which,	
  of	
  course,	
  you	
  should	
  be	
  
doing),	
  you’re	
  missing	
  out	
  on	
  an	
  opportunity	
  to	
  engage	
  prospects	
  that	
  may	
  not	
  
be	
  quite	
  ready	
  to	
  buy	
  from	
  you.	
  It’s	
  a	
  quick	
  and	
  simple	
  add-­‐on	
  by	
  your	
  website	
  
programmer.	
  
6. There	
  are	
  copy	
  problems.	
  The	
  best	
  way	
  to	
  lose	
  a	
  prospect	
  is	
  to	
  have	
  a	
  website	
  
with	
  copy	
  errors—be	
  it	
  spelling,	
  grammar,	
  punctuation,	
  or	
  other	
  easy	
  fixes	
  to	
  the	
  
language	
  on	
  your	
  site.	
  Don’t	
  be	
  one	
  of	
  those	
  companies	
  that	
  loses	
  clients	
  simply	
  
because	
  you	
  come	
  across	
  as	
  unprofessional	
  during	
  a	
  prospect’s	
  first	
  impression	
  
of	
  your	
  business.	
  
	
  
These	
  are	
  just	
  a	
  few	
  of	
  the	
  reasons	
  your	
  company’s	
  website	
  may	
  need	
  a	
  facelift.	
  Get	
  a	
  
comprehensive	
  report	
  when	
  you	
  receive	
  a	
  website	
  audit	
  that	
  shows	
  what	
  needs	
  to	
  be	
  
fixed—sooner	
  rather	
  than	
  later.	
  The	
  assessment	
  is	
  free.	
  Just	
  contact	
  me	
  for	
  your	
  
evaluation	
  today.

6 Reasons Your Website Needs a Facelift

  • 1. 6  Reasons  Your  Website  Needs  a  Facelift     The  look  and  feel  of  their   website  is  a  touchy  subject   for  some  businesses.  They   built  a  shiny  new  site  a  few   years  ago—at  a  pretty   penny.  They  spent   countless  hours  going  back   and  forth  with  the  designer   and  writer,  and  were  more   relieved  than  anything  else   when  the  site  finally  went   live.     Sound  familiar?     If  you  haven’t  revisited   your  website  in  awhile,  it   may  be  time  to  take   another  hard  look.  In  fact,   it  may  be  time  for  a  facelift.   Here’s  how  you’ll  know:     1. The  design  is  outdated—something  a  website  programmer/designer  would  have   created  in  1999.  The  look  and  feel  of  your  site  needs  to  reflect  current  design   conventions  and,  at  the  very  least,  be  comparable  with  your  competitors.     2. The  copy  is  old.  And  worse,  it  isn’t  optimized.  If  you  didn’t  pay  attention  to  SEO   the  first  time  around,  it’s  no  wonder  that  your  website  traffic  isn’t  what  it  could   be.     3. The  images  need  to  be  retired.  We’ve  all  had  enough  of  the  same  old  stock   photos  we  see  on  way  too  many  business  websites.  Have  you  considered  taking   your  own  photographs  for  your  business?  Snap  your  own  shots  of  your  work   environment,  products/services  in  action,  happy  clients,  etc.  
  • 2. 4. You’re  not  promoting  new  products/services.  Speaking  of  products,  it’s   definitely  time  for  a  facelift  if  your  website  doesn’t  showcase  your  new   products/services.  Prospects  need  to  know  about  your  latest  offerings  (and  so  do   the  search  engines).   5.

There  are  copy  problems.  The  best  way  to  lose  a  prospect  is  to  have  a  website   with  copy  errors—be  it  spelling,  grammar,  punctuation,  or  other  easy  fixes  to  the   language  on  your  site.  Don’t  be  one  of  those  companies  that  loses  clients  simply   because  you  come  across  as  unprofessional  during  a  prospect’s  first  impression   of  your  business.     These  are  just  a  few  of  the  reasons  your  company’s  website  may  need  a  facelift.  Get  a   comprehensive  report  when  you  receive  a  website  audit  that  shows  what  needs  to  be   fixed—sooner  rather  than  later.  The  assessment  is  free.  Just  contact  me  for  your   evaluation  today.     You  can  also  learn  more  about  starting  your  Content  Marketing  Program  here:   www.ContentMarketingProgram.com.
