Website Design - Creative Juices Marketing Agency

Website Design And Development

Well-thought-out, responsive, professional website design is an essential element of any successful marketing strategy. As technology continues to advance, businesses must maintain a distinctive and credible online presence.

Studies show that 3 out of 4 online users judge a company’s credibility based on its website, and it takes as little as 17–50 milliseconds for a visitor to decide whether they find a website appealing. With more than a billion websites competing for attention, capturing—and keeping—a visitor has never been more challenging.

That’s where professional website design makes all the difference.

Explore a selection of Creative Juices–developed websites to see how strategic design turns visitors into customers.

Do I Really Need Professional Website Design?

The short answer: Yes. Very few businesses can survive today without a strong web presence. A professional website not only showcases who you are and what you do—it legitimizes your business. Like it or not, every business is expected to have a website, and the quality of that website directly impacts trust and perception.

Your website is one of the most cost-effective marketing tools available. It works for you 24/7, builds credibility, supports your brand, and helps convert prospects into customers. The benefits far outweigh any downsides. (For further reading, Forbes has an excellent article on this topic.)

What Defines Quality Website Design?

A quality website is:

Clean and well-organized
Easy to navigate
Clear and concise
Modern in style and layout
Fully functional and branded
Designed to motivate action

Critical information—hours, location, contact details—should be effortless to find. Social media links should be visible and functional. Users want quick answers and solutions. Make it easy for them—and visually engaging while you do it.

A quality website should also:

Perform consistently across all browsers
Be fully responsive and mobile-friendly
Be polished and professional, free from spelling or grammar errors, outdated design trends, blurry images, mismatched fonts, or visual clutter

Your website is a tool. Start with quality, and everything else becomes easier.

There are many things that good website design delivers for your business, here are 10 good starting points to consider:

Create a presence. Who knows about your business? Where can prospects and clients go to learn more? Your website can help establish your business as a going concern, communicate your brand value proposition and it can convey professionalism. It also extends your reach to anyone in the world.
Help build trust. New clients and prospects might want to know about your business history, your expertise and your specialization. This is a great vehicle for people to learn more and attain that comfort level they seek.
Get listed on search engines. Build your website incorporating search engine optimization (SEO) techniques so that you can easily be found by people searching for relevant key words. This can be an important gateway to expanding your business.
Point of contact. Your website provides customers an easy way to contact you and learn more about your products, services and business.
Leverage social networks. Implement a social media strategy to reach a larger audience and to create more buzz about your biz. Establish your presence on Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and Twitter. Facebook likes and shares can drive people to your website. Links to popular or topical items from or to your website will add to its relevance.
Sell products. If your business lends itself to online sales, create a virtual store as an alternative or complement to a storefront or office location.
Share the latest news. Whenever there are new developments regarding your business, update your website. Sites that have fresh, relevant and timely information draw users back more often.
Blog. Keep your website fresh and keep drawing people in with regular Blog posts. Show your expertise, share insights and provide practical tips on topics relevant to your business or to your customers. See ghost blogging.
Learn about customers. Learn about their needs, preferences, and interests. Establish and nurture two-way communication with prospects and clients. This will forge a deeper bond and serve them better.
Customer convenience. Providing customers with multiple ways to interact with your business is almost mandatory these days. Anything less could result in lost sales.
