Top 10 Reasons To Update Your Website

1. Are you using flash on your website?a. If you are using Flash animation on your website do you realize that it doesn't appear on iphones? Do you know that Iphones are the most popular smart phone in the world? There are over 80 million iphones in the USA alone. 

2. Your phone number is an imagea. If your business phone number is shown as a jpeg image the mobile visitor is not able to click the number to call you. With a text based phone number that phone number will be clickable on a smart phone and easier for the person to call you directly while visiting your site.
3. You don’t have new articlesa. New content is one of the many aspects the search engines grade when deciding where your website should come up in search results. Publishing new content on your website will keep your website fresh and alive.
4. Not connected to your social network sitesa. If your site is not connected to your social media accounts like Facebook, Google Plus or Linked In you are missing many opportunities for people to find and share your website. 
5. Are people able to request information through your website? a. If your website does not have a form that people can fill out to request information you are missing out on a lot of potential customers. People do research when it is convenient for them and this may be before or after your regular business hours. By giving the visitor a contact form they can send you a message and allow you to follow up with them during normal business hours or via email at any time. b. Having a contact form will also allow you to build a list of emails to market new information for products or services directly through email. There is no better return on investment than direct email marketing to people who have contacted you.
6. Has it been the same since George W. Bush was president?
7. Does your footer copyright say 2010 or later?
8. Do you have testimonials from happy customers and clients?
9. Do you have a portfolio of successful projects?
10. Have you won any awards online or in your community?
