5 Things Small Businesses Get Wrong About Their Website
I've built websites for dozens of small businesses and these mistakes come up every single time:
1. Treating your homepage like a resume
Nobody cares about your company history on page one. Lead with the problem you solve and a clear call-to-action.
2. No mobile optimization
Over 60% of your traffic is mobile. If your site doesn't look good on a phone, you're losing more than half your potential customers.
3. Missing a clear CTA
Every page should have ONE thing you want the visitor to do. Book a call, buy a product, sign up for your list. Pick one.
4. Loading speed over flashy design
That hero video looks cool but if your site takes 5 seconds to load, 40% of visitors are already gone. Speed wins.
5. No social proof
Add testimonials, client logos, case studies — anything that shows someone else trusts you. It's the single biggest conversion lever for small business sites.
If any of this sounds like your site, it might be time for a rebuild. We handle the entire process from design to launch.
