Over the past few years, mobile device users have surpassed traditional Internet browsing from desktop and laptop computers. Today, the majority of Internet browsers are searching and visiting websites, social media sites, and checking email from their mobile devices. As a result, businesses need to rethink their online strategies and adjust them accordingly. In fact, many of the major search engines have adjusted their ranking criteria and now prominently display search results featuring websites that are mobile friendly. If your website is not mobile friendly, the link to your website could easily now be on the second, third, or even fifth page of search results and no longer be reaching your targeted audience.

Now search engines are actually counting these shares in ranking search results into the ranking criteria. It is more important now to ensure your web presence includes all the latest requirements for mobile device users and content sharing. If your site has not been updated in the past six months, it is probably due for an overhaul to incorporate new features for mobile device users. Web design services, many businesses are opting for a single website designed for both mobile device and traditional Internet users. This type of web design automatically detects the type of device being used to access the content and adjusts how content is displayed on the user’s screen. Having a single website design also makes it easier to update and manage anytime you want to make changes to content, add new pages, or incorporate new features. These changes in web browsing are the result of most mobile users searching for businesses because they require their products or services now. If your website is mobile friendly, not only does it make it easier for people to find your business, but it can also show them where you are located in regards to their current location. For all you know your next new customer is just a few blocks away.

Website development as a mainstream has flourished exponentially within a less time. With so many of the service providers spreading out and the Internet opening up the International boundaries, a lot of design variety and skill diversity is available. Despite, this has created a great chaos in the minds of clients. With different Website Development Pricing all over the companies, most of the web design service buyers mull over the reasonable cost of web development. We can find web designers and web design firms asking different amounts at the same time some others don’t even touch a project for less than that particular amount, and even more web designers fall in between these price ranges. So what is the right price for a website design or redesign?

It depends on a multitude of factors::

Quality

There are so many options to save money. However, cheap quality reflects itself negatively, and has the potential of hindering website visitor conversions. On the other hand, if all your marketing budget is spent on just a website design and you have nothing left to market your impeccable website, did you even then made a wise decision ? You need a professionally created website that “talks” to your visitors and does a perfect job at showing them how trustworthy you and your business are. More important however is that you need a website that is “results-oriented” and converts your visitors into customers.

Value

The price to value depends on factors which encompass design and functionality both. You have to know what goes into developing a basic website framework and how much effort is needed to add bells and whistles to the basic core.

Functionality

Many customers require a content management system to enable them to easily add content to the site and update the existing content. Many individuals and businesses however require much more than a basic 5 page website and may include requirements like Flash slideshows, editable jQuery, Contact Us forms, Blog, Forum, Sitemap, Virtual Tours, Photo and Video Galleries etc. Your web design company needs to design and develop this functionality and you will be paying for their time and expertise.

The larger your project scope, the higher the cost will be. Web development costs include scope parameters such as:

The number of pages to be designed.
Programming required
Content authoring and image usage.
Web hosting and domain name purchase.
Video development and video hosting
Logo design or redesign

Expertise and Experience

Experienced web designers is always the best choice. While experienced web design firms with cross-discipline experience will always charge more, they also stand a better chance of delivering superior results.

Good developers must have quality assurance methods, project management tools . Cross browser testing, broken link checks, better cut images, cleaner Javascript code, that loads quickly, are some benefits that make or break a website.

The bottom line is, the decision to hire a web design company should never be price focused, but ROI (return on investment) focused. If the company has the ability to deliver and show you a successful track record, you will never regret your decision.

Conversions & Bounce Rates :: E-Commerce Business

it_geeks — Tue, 25 Oct 2016 13:25:33 +0000

Reducing BOUNCE RATES should be a priority for any ecommerce business, so getting a professional web designer to help you address this issue may be a good idea if you are aiming to increase conversions. For the uninitiated, the bounce rate is the statistic which indicates the percentage of visitors who arrive on a site and then leave without visiting any other pages. There are a number of reasons that this might occur. If users arrive on your site and find that the content there is relevant to their needs, well written and engaging, then they are more likely to spend time digesting it. But optimising content to encourage visitors to head to other pages, how you display the material is equally important.

The layout of text is essential as you need to make it easy to read and digest. Shorter sentences are desirable, while paragraphs containing three sentences at most will work best. Popups are routinely pinpointed as a source of user frustration, which is why they should be avoided at all costs. This not only includes popup ads, but also interstitials which sites use to advertise promote mailing lists, surveys, app downloads and other elements to visitors. Even if a page is well designed and has strong content, bounce rates may remain high if visitors arrive, find what they are looking for and are given no reason to remain on the site. So including a call to action on landing pages to encourage the desired action is an important tactic in good web design and conversion rate optimisation. Either way, its inclusion will assist in minimising bounce rates.
