looking for campaign to clip

Most small business websites are silently killing conversions. Here are the 5 biggest mistakes I see every day building sites for clients — and what to do instead.

1. No clear call-to-action above the fold

If someone lands on your homepage and can't figure out what to do in 3 seconds, they're gone. Your CTA ("Book a Call", "Shop Now", "Get Started") should be the first thing they see — not buried at the bottom.

2. Slow load times

Every second your site takes to load costs you ~7% of conversions. Compress images, minimize plugins, and use modern hosting. If your site takes 4+ seconds to load on mobile, you're losing half your traffic.

3. Not mobile-optimized

Over 60% of web traffic is mobile. If your site looks broken on a phone, you're invisible to the majority of your potential clients. Pull up your site on your phone right now and check.

4. Generic stock photos everywhere

Nothing screams "I don't care" like a site full of generic handshake photos. Use real photos of your work, your team, your space. Authenticity converts better than polish every time.

5. No social proof

No testimonials, no case studies, no reviews = no trust. Even 2-3 genuine client quotes on your homepage can dramatically boost conversions.
