Your website is often the first impression potential customers have of your business - so ask yourself, is it making the impact you want? A slow, outdated, or clunky website isn’t just frustrating for visitors - it could be costing you sales. Here’s how to know if your website needs a refresh and what to do about it.
Signs Your Website Needs an Update
Slow Loading Times – If your site takes more than a few seconds to load, visitors will bounce faster than you can say “refresh.” Speed matters, and Google agrees - slow websites get penalised in search rankings.
Not Mobile-Friendly – Over half of all web traffic comes from mobile devices. If your site isn’t mobile-optimised, you’re pushing potential customers away before they even get a chance to see what you offer.
Outdated Design & Content – If your website still looks like it belongs in 2015 (or worse, 2005), it’s time for a glow-up. Modern, clean, and user-friendly designs build trust and make it easier for customers to navigate.
Poor SEO & Visibility – If you’re not showing up in search results, your website might not be optimised for the right keywords. No visibility = no visitors.
Lack of Clear Calls-to-Action (CTAs) – Your website should guide visitors toward booking, purchasing, or reaching out. If they have to figure out what to do next, chances are they’ll just leave instead.
The Power of a Website Refresh
A sleek, modern website isn’t just for show - it directly impacts your bottom line.
Faster Load Speeds = Less frustration, lower bounce rates, and happier customers.
Mobile-Friendly Design = More people can engage with your business effortlessly on the go.
SEO-Optimised Content = Higher rankings on Google, which means more visibility and leads.
Better User Experience (UX) = Visitors stay longer, engage more, and are more likely to convert into paying customers.
Real Results: A Website Makeover in Action
Take it from one of my happy clients, who saw massive improvements after a website revamp:
"Kylie is the ultimate professional! I felt at ease working with her from the get-go. She has added some sparkle back to my business. I am already seeing results from the stunning website she put together for me, and I’m excited about what we can achieve working together!"
The impact? Increased inquiries, better engagement, and a website that actually works for the business, not against it.
