Domain, Hosting and SSL Explained in Plain Words

Read articleYour website works around the clock as your best salesperson — or your worst. If it is out of date, customers quietly go to a competitor. Here are seven signs it is time for a redesign.
1. It takes more than 3 seconds to load
Most visitors leave a slow site before it finishes loading. Speed also affects your Google rankings.
2. It looks broken on mobile
Most of your visitors are on a phone. Tiny text, sideways scrolling and hard-to-tap buttons drive them away.
3. You cannot update it yourself

4. It does not bring enquiries
A website should have clear calls to action: call, WhatsApp, quote forms.
5. It does not appear on Google
Missing titles, descriptions and structure mean search engines cannot understand your pages.
6. It has no SSL
A “Not secure” warning in the browser costs you trust immediately.
7. It no longer reflects your business
New services, new branding or new locations should be on your site.
