How to interpret the current status of your website

  • Performance: How long does it take to show content
  • Accessibility: Is the page usable by people with impairments
  • Best Practices: Does the page follow modern web development practices
  • SEO: Is the page optimized for search engine results ranking



User experience

F-shaped pattern and grid layout

  • The most common page viewing pattern is where users’ eyes track in a F-shape across the screen
  • Improve usability and functionality by arranging content in a clean grid structure
  • Organize content on all pages into short paragraphs/ bullets with H2, H3, H4 headings

Easy access to product and service information

  • Keep the navigation simple, intuitive, and consistent throughout
  • Expand the primary navigation bar to include links to all relevant product/ service/ other pages
  • Add a search bar for visitors to easily locate content related to specific products

Redundant actions

  • More actions mean more effort/thought which can lead to a higher bounce rate
  • List all the steps to complete a task and remove redundancies
  • Remove/ fix/ add content for any broken links on the website

Mobile-first approach

  • Mobile now accounts for over half of web traffic worldwide
  • Use a responsive layout adaptable to different screens, to improve the user experience
  • Optimize the images (sizes) to reduce scroll and improve page load time, which will increase SEO as well

Storytelling

Structured content

  • Informative homepage, establish credibility with user testimonials and customer story snippets linked to case studies
  • Separate campaign page with unique URL for major products/ services, with content organized into problem statement, solution, differentiation, user testimonials
  • Integrate videos, infographics, charts, and other visual content to grab users’ attention

Localization of content

  • Builds trust with visitors, ensures cultural relevance, establishes authority and knowledge
  • Country-specific subdomain with localized product/ service information, customer stories, testimonials, and marketing campaigns

Lead generation

Enquiries and user interaction

  • 70% of business B2B websites lack a clear call-to-action leading to lost sales opportunities
  • Include relevant CTAs on all pages for users to easily submit an enquiry without having to visit the Contact page
  • Enable a chatbot to conveniently address user queries 24/7

Conversion

  • Place an enquiry form on the homepage banner to capture details for sales follow up
  • Implement a newsletter subscription/ free offering such as a whitepaper for visitors to enter details and download

Social media engagement

Inbound marketing strategies

  • Enable promoters -> Analyze traffc -> Post regularly -> Optimize content -> Retarget audience
  • Leverage research reports relevant to your target audience for lead generation
  • Keep brand name top-of-mind during events, by hosting interviews with prominent leaders
