We meet many of our local clients face to face for consulting meetings, training and SEO reviews. But we understand this isn’t always possible. especially for our clients that are based on the other side of the country.. Or the world!

SEO stands for search engine optimisation. Without a solid SEO strategy, your website will be on page 15 of Google and your website traffic and sale or leads will become stagnant very quickly. 

SEO is a process that involves constant tweaking and optimising of a website to increase rankings within Google.

Many years ago, keyword stuffing, tons of irrelevant backlinks and other devious techniques were used to manipulate the result. However, now with the advances of machine learning and Googles ever changing algorithm.

It’s more important than ever to focus on user intent and creating great content that Google and your potential clients will love.

CRO stands for conversion rate optimisation. This is a process that involves optimising your website for conversions and increasing leads, phone calls, emails or whatever your businesses preferred lead source is.

Sometimes a simple call to action or a top of page phone number is sufficient. Sometime a technical sales funnel is needed.

In order to find out what is the best optimisation strategy for your business, date and analytics must be obtained and reviewed. Then a CRO plan can be set out.

UX stands for user experience. UX is becoming a hot topic within web design because consumers are becoming increasingly impatient. If a potential customer visits your website, and the user experience is poor. Chances are they will shop elsewhere.

Creating a great suer experience starts from the moment a website is built, but the UX is constantly updated and optimised. This in turn helps SEO, CRO and is regarded as good practice for web design.

There are 3 ways we can accept and implement website copy and content:

1. We call in a professional copy writer. This person will work with yourself to make sure all copy not only reads well but is engaging for website visitors.
2. You (the client) supplies the copy. We have special questionnaires which explain what questions, copy and text we need from you. you can find it here: https://thewebdesignguys.co.uk/new-project/
3. Us (The Web Design Guys) can add copy for you. This involves, service or product research and when we write, we write specially for SEO.

we recommend supplying your own copy and having either us or copywriter to improve your writing for both readability, engagement and SEO.

We always advise supplying your own, high quality photos that your business has built up over time. If this isn’t possible, we can source stock photos.

Alternatively, we can commission one of our regular photographers to capture some fresh new photos of your business. These photos can be used for the website, social media and any future design work.
