If you just got a new website, congratulations! You pulled together your content, brand and goals into one beautiful website and now you can relax. Right? Wrong.
The “build it and they will come” attitude of the early Internet days are long gone. Competition is tough. Your marketing efforts and the search engines will dictate who comes to your site and who doesn’t, but your content, calls to action and copywriting will determine if your visitors will stay.
In the more than ten years we’ve been in business, we have launched hundreds of websites. The really successful sites have marketing and testing in place to carry the initial excitement of their launch into the future. The less successful websites still have “Coming Soon” on their pages where crucial content needs to be.
Getting a website launched is really just the beginning. For your website to really succeed you need visitors to have access to new, updated-content (all the time), and you need to monitor and adjust your website to squeeze the most results out of it.
If you want your website to be insanely successful, you need to commit to testing and tweaking it to gain maximum results.
