Get your website ready for 2012

Over the next few days is a great time to take a look at your business website and ask yourself some questions about it.

Is it easy to navigate? If you were a first time visitor, would you be able to locate what you are looking for easily enough that you would stay and browse, or would you leave the site in frustration at not finding what you were looking for?

What might a first time visitor want to find? Why would someone visit your website and browse around it looking at the information it has? Would they be able to find everything that they want to know? Is there something you could add that would help first time visitors?

How about clutter? Is there something you need to remove because it is just cluttering the site and not really of any actual use to anyone that visits your site? Things that have little to nothing to do with your business that might confuse visitors?

Are your social media links easy to find and navigate?

This is by no means a complete list of what you need to do for your site, but it will give you a easy to work with starting point from which you can at least say that you made the effort to improve your business website as the new year started.
