What makes a great website?
A great website excels in several key areas:
• User Experience (UX): A great website provides an intuitive and satisfying user experience. Navigation should be easy to understand and use, allowing visitors to find what they're looking for without confusion or frustration. Good UX includes fast loading times, mobile responsiveness, and accessible design for all users, including those with disabilities.
• Content Quality: High-quality, relevant content is crucial. This includes clear, concise, and engaging text, high-resolution images, and professional-grade videos. The content should be regularly updated to keep it fresh and relevant.
• Visual Design: The website should have an aesthetically pleasing design that aligns with the brand's identity. A good visual design is not just about looking good; it's about creating an emotional connection with the visitor and making a good first impression.
• Search Engine Optimization (SEO): A great website is optimized for search engines to improve visibility in search results. This includes using the right keywords, having a clean site structure, and ensuring fast loading speeds.
• Security: With increasing cyber threats, a secure website is essential. This includes having an SSL certificate, regular updates to security protocols, and measures to protect user data.
• Functionality and Performance: The website should work smoothly, with all links, buttons, and forms functioning as expected. It should load quickly, as slow loading times can lead to high bounce rates.
• Mobile Responsiveness: With more users accessing websites via mobile devices, a great website must be mobile-friendly. It should look and work well on all screen sizes and devices.
• Accessibility: A great website is accessible to people with disabilities. This includes using alt text for images, providing sufficient contrast between text and background, and ensuring the website can be navigated with a keyboard or screen reader.
• Engagement Features: Interactive elements like contact forms, live chat, social media links, and calls-to-action can enhance user engagement.
• Analytics and Feedback: Utilizing tools to analyze website traffic and user behavior can provide insights for continuous improvement. Additionally, gathering feedback directly from users can be invaluable.
In summary, a great website is user-friendly, visually appealing, content-rich, SEO-optimized, secure, high-performing, mobile-responsive, accessible, engaging, and continuously improving based on user feedback and analytics.

I love being able to help companies increase revenues through enhanced awareness. This allows us to have an impact in the communities that we help with increased job production and helping entrepreneurs to achieve their dreams.
What inspired you to start your own business?
When my daughter was younger, there were only a few restaurants she would eat at. One day, when we went to dine at one of her favorites, there was a sign on the door that said they'd gone out of business. My daughter didn't understand what was happening and we tried our best to explain it to her. The restaurant had a great location, great food, cool ambiance, and a great bar, but it still went out of business.
The only thing they didn't have... high-quality marketing.
My wife and I started discussing this unfortunate turn of events and we realized that we had a skill set that could have helped this entrepreneur not only survive but thrive. That's when we decided to start our own business to begin helping other businesses. From that point, we started working with bigger businesses and realized the impact that high-quality marketing had. Not only on the top line but on the community.
