Even with the rise of social media, a website remains a very important communication tool. When you have a website made, the power is mainly in having all your online channels communicate with each other. This way, you lose the least amount of time and your Facebook or LinkedIn page stays up-to-date with the data you change on your website.

Purpose of having a website made

When you have a website created, the purpose of your website is for your business or organization to better communicate with your customers. Communicate the vision and goals of your business. A website should exude confidence and you should show your customers (and competitors) that you know what you’re doing. If your opening hours are different on Facebook, on Google Maps, and on your website, you’re not immediately exuding confidence.

Building a website is also important for accessibility. Not just for displaying a contact form or your contact information, but make sure your customers can easily find what they are coming for on your website. When you have a website built, the net purpose is to minimize your customers contacting you.

Reason to have a new website created

There are several reasons to choose a new website. The most common one that people come to us for is an outdated design. The current website no longer represents the quality of the company and is therefore unclear to visitors. The website is too messy and the users don’t really know where to go to find certain information. Or they are overloaded with information and leave the website.

Sometimes it is also possible that the backend of the website is outdated. If you can no longer maintain the website yourself, it’s time for a new website. Nobody likes to work in a cluttered environment, for sites this is no different. And if no one wants to update the website, it quickly becomes outdated and you, as a company, lose the potential power of your online signboard.

Finally, for outdated websites, besides the look and feel, there are often other factors that will decide whether a new website is really needed or not: Performance. If your website loads slowly or is not properly visible on mobile devices. This is becoming more and more an important issue these days. Especially with a view to improving the SEO score of your website.
