Get Your Website On

Effective Web Design Starts With Good Search Optimization

Egg Digital Media designs simple, clean, affordable websites for Houston businesses looking for web design services. But if that was all there was to it, we would end the sentence here. There’s more to being successful on the web than just building a cool website.

We believe the best way to approach web design is through logical practical steps. First, determine why you want to build the website in the first place. Who are your typical visitors and why have they come to the site -  product information, to interact with others, or to buy? Next, determine what elements that need to be built into the site that will help the user have a good experience once they arrive.

Unfortunately many business owners tend to design their website for themselves and not for their users. Big mistake. If you design for you, you run the risk of being one of the few folks who like the site. But if you design for your user - good things can happen. Things like increased traffic to your website from people who are looking to buy, sell, talk or just visit. So your job is to convert visitors to customers by giving them what they “Googled” for when they arrive on the doorstep of your website.

Here are a few considerations:

  • Content Presentation
  • Functionality
  • Usability
  • Page Layout
  • Browser Compatibility
  • Navigation
  • Color Choices
  • Graphics

But one area that is often neglected by small business owners and individuals is website marketing
and analytics.

Effective website marketing is a long-term venture that involves many processes. Keyword search, interpreting website analytics, pay per click decisions, directory submission, and conversion analysis are top of mind. Most small companies don’t have the staff, the budget, or the time to handle this part of the process.

Egg Digital Media can help you determine which marketing mix will work best for you. Yes, you could get a website today for $300 these days.  But what you save in cost could cost you customers in the end.

Without the “engine” that drives the machine - unique content, site architecture, effective keywords, strong links - sooner or later you’ll pull up empty. And empty-handed. So, are you really getting a “great deal” or just thrown good money down the drain without any quantifiable results?
