Mobile First

Is your current website optimized for mobile? Now that a majority of users are visiting websites on mobile, it's important to design your website with this in mind, that's what we call Mobile First! Look at the data here, in 2013, only 27% of visits were on mobile, but at the end of 2021, we are now at 63%, if a client is not able to have a great experience on your website from his phone, chances are that he will not bother returning on his computer. A well-designed website will allow for a good experience on mobile as well as on desktop, without compromising on quality. I have done many projects with this approach, and you can too!

Using a good CMS

Using a CMS (Content Management System) is a nice way to manage your website easily. But what's more important than just using one, is using one that will work for your website. Many websites use a CMS like WordPress, but this can sometimes be a bad idea. The wrong CMS will slow down your website with too many features that you don't need. For example, Forestry CMS used for this website allow me to generate all of my websites once and then deliver everything rapidly. One like WordPress will be slower on each page load, which can have an impact on your client and your SEO. A good CMS should make it easy for your content editors to add new content.

When this happens, it can be the right time to think about a new, updated, website. Technology change and there are often new ways of doing things that will make them simpler and faster.
