4 SIGNS IT’S TIME TO UPGRADE YOUR DIY WEBSITE
Let’s be real:
We all have to start somewhere, and a lot of the time that means starting with doing things yourself. But as your business grows, there comes a point where it’s time to graduate from the DIY website and brand and upgrade to reflect your current professionalism and prowess. If you’re feeling unsure about whether it’s time for you to take that step, today’s post is here to help you recognize the signs that it’s time to upgrade and take things to the next level with a website designer.
You’re embarrassed to share your URL
It happens! Sometimes when we first start out we have an idea that we think is great, but it doesn’t exactly— evolve as we do. If your URL is something that you’re not thrilled for potential clients to see, it might be time to look into a complete website makeover.
2. You’ve changed your niche or offerings
There is so much room for growth and change in a business, and your offers and areas of expertise are allowed to change too. If your offers no longer line up with what they were when you started your website, it will be necessary to make a change to market yourself effectively.
3. Your website no longer feels aligned to you
This can happen for so many different reasons. Maybe the colors and branding just aren’t you anymore, or maybe the functionality of the site is no longer doing what you need it to. Either way, hiring a website designer will help create the branded website of your dreams that aligns to both who you are, and what you do.
4. You’re not attracting the right clients.
This is a big one. If your website isn’t attracting new, dream clients for you, it’s not doing its job! Which means it’s definitely time for a change. Your website should of course be aligned to you, but it should also be aligned to your clients and what they want and need. Let your website designer know what clients you’re looking for, and we can help you bring them in.
