The 5 Most Overlooked Parts of Your Website and What To Do With Them

I am very excited for today’s episode. As a web designer, I love a good looking website. And I make snap judgements about businesses based on their website. #sorrynotsorry Because really in this day and age, how hard is it to have a beautiful website? But having a good looking website isn’t enough to get your customers or clients. It needs to be strategic too! In This Episode: * [1:03] What I really mean when I say a beautiful website. * [1:14] Design is what catches your eye. It makes the FIRST IMPRESSION. * [1:36] Why you need a strategically planned website. * [1:59] Why the footer shouldn’t be overlooked as a useless part of your website. * [2:21] What to include in the footer of your website. * [2:45] Should you ever have a sidebar on your website? * [2:58] When and where a sidebar should be used and what to include in it. * [5:30] Why just having a contact form on your contact page is a missed opportunity. * [6:12] What to include on your contact page. * [7:10] How to strategically plan your services page. * [9:11] Why the about page is the one page I consistently see people get so wrong. * [10:00] Why a CTA (or call to action) is absolutely necessary on your about page.

5 Web Design Mistakes and How to Fix Them

In today’s episode, I am sharing 5 common web design mistakes and how to fix them. I come across WAY too many websites that have one or more of these mistakes and it just makes them come off as unprofessional. But there is no reason to, because they are also super easy to fix! In This Episode: * [0:46] Your website is not responsive and why that matters. Hint: how we access websites today is very different than several years ago. * [1:47] How to find out if your current website is responsive. * [2:23] How to fix a website that isn’t responsive. * [4:34] Choosing bad fonts and what exactly classifies as a bad font. * [6:41] The fix for bad fonts on your website. * [7:04] Just because a font is in your brand doesn’t mean you have to use it on your website. Readability comes first. * [7:54] Your content isn’t scannable and that is a HUGE issue. * [9:35] How to update your content and make it scannable. * [10:55] Poor navigation – you never want a visitor to get to your site and not know how to find something. * [12:54] How to fix your navigation if it isn’t cutting it. * [13:08] Don’t have hard to find contact information, or even worse, no contact info.. * [14:35] What to include on your contact page and where to link it. * [15:19] What to do if you don’t want to make your email address public. * [15:44] A bonus web design mistake to avoid and how to fix it!

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
