Buy the Book on Amazon.comDoes your website capture your visitor’s attention?
Are you getting the awareness, leads and sales you want?
Are you lacking good daily website traffic?
Your business may deliver great products or services, but it may be difficult to get the word out. These days, the ultimate place to share your message is online, but it’s more work and requires more specialized knowledge than ever before.
Can your customers easily find what they’re looking for in a timely manner before they click away? Do you have special offers? Can your customers easily find your contact information? According to HubSpot, “55% of visitors spend fewer than 15 seconds on your website.” 15 seconds can go by in a FLASH, so make them count! Customers are likely to click away faster now more than ever as smart phones have taken over the universe!
We want things to load fast, be available at a moment’s notice, cost a reasonable amount of money and be able to ship in a timely manner. If your website loads slow or if something isn’t clear and to the point, your customers are more likely to take their business elsewhere. Don’t let this happen to you!
According to Lisa Noble, owner of the website design company Vivid Visual Solutions, recommends you take a deep look into each of the following when focusing on creating the look and feel of your website:
The first thing the designer determines is why the website or graphic element is being created. What is the main intention for the user’s experience while on the website?
Who is the ideal user we want to reach? What is their motivation for coming to the website? Once the designer has answers to the questions below, a design can be created that speaks to a specific audience about their needs or wants.
The simplest way to start a layout is to sketch out an idea before you open any tool such as Photoshop or Canva. Set pencil to paper or create a wireframe in software such as Omnigraffle or Balsalmiq. A blueprint is where you work out all the details about functionality or layout before you start the project in Photoshop or other design software. With a blueprint for a house you would determine where the windows and doors will go and work from it. A wireframe is the same thing for a website. Determine where each piece of content will go on each website page before beginning your website design.
How do we want the user to feel when they come to website? The designer should ask this question while researching the target audience. Color is the first place we use this information. Color can help convey a mood or a feeling. The designer needs to be mindful of culture differences as well, when creating international websites because colors that mean one thing in the United States can mean something totally different in another country. See the examples of moods of color below:
If you follow the above instructions on look and feel then you’ll have your customer’s hooked when they get to your site. However, you may ask yourself, “How do I get customers to come to my site to begin with? It’s not showing up on Google. What do I do?”

I'm truly proud of the work and donations we've done on the Carr Fire – there is no way we could have done the amount of work we did and in turn donate the amount of money we were able to without your help. I think we'll end up donating over $10,000 back to homeowners who lost their homes in the fire ... You guys have been awesome.
