A quick-loading website design?

The appearance of your website speaks volumes about the product or service you offer.

Imagine an unshaved, shabbily dressed sales representative walking into a meeting – a half hour late – with mustard on his sales proposal. That company just lost a sale.

Unfortunately, many websites look like this kind of sales rep. The layout resembles either a shabbily dressed salesman or they go overboard and look like a rep who is wearing a Halloween costume.

The graphics load slowly, like someone 30 minutes late for a meeting. The sales letter is filled with typographical and grammatical errors, and it has no flow from one paragraph to the next. Oooh! Looks like mustard stains!

The appearance of your website is critical to the success or failure of your online business. It must…

Have a professional layout design that is pleasing to the eyes.
Be quick-loading, free of any graphics that make visitors wait for an extended period of time. (Most of us are VERY impatient and won’t wait long)

Be typographically and grammatically accurate. Check it no less than 5 times. And then have someone else check it. Never rely solely on your software to spell-check. You need human eyes to take a look as well.

Flow from one paragraph to the next in an easy-to-follow, easy-to-understand language.

Focus on the benefits to the customer. How does it meet their need? Your website is your salesperson, remember? Maybe it’s time for a new suit.

I just wanted to make certain you understand the importance of having a professional website design. Remember: PRESENTATION is just as important as the offer itself. Got it?
