Two roads diverge in a digital wood. To the left lies a rapid Squarespace site, and to the right, WordPress. Each presents a potential path to sustainable business growth. But which to choose? Clients often approach us with equal parts excitement and anxiety—and we get it. A misstep can cost precious resources. So, which offers the clearest path forward?
Like most things in life, “It depends.”
Massive visibility. Boosted leads and accelerated sales cycles. Swift, sustainable growth. Brands everywhere are searching for the magic that will empower them to reliably move the needle.
But, here’s my secret—and there’s really nothing mystical about it: We, the human species, are irrationally predictable. While many are wrestling with the irrational side of it, throwing things at the wall and observing, the real power lies in harnessing our predictable nature.
Your website is often the first experience a prospective customer will have with your brand. As a result, it can create a powerful framing effect. Give them a positive first experience, and that warm afterglow will lay the groundwork for trust and soften any bumps further down the road. Those customers are also likely to revisit your site before making their buying decision. Should they stumble into a broken or hacked website at any point in their decision-making journey, you may never see them again.
Your website is your digital face to the world. Done well, it will not only influence your audience—accelerating their time to decision—it will make taking action a breeze. So, whether you’re launching your first website or searching for a new team to bring in fresh perspectives, you need to know how to find a web developer that can deliver.
It happens. You build a website and discover the relationship you have with your digital agency isn’t a fit. Or, your website performance leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe you even discover that your web team is up to something shady. You need to know how to fire your web designer and gain control of your website—sometimes with a degree of stealth.
We’ll show you how.
Which modern vampire are you? In which Hogwarts house do you belong? What Friends character do you most resemble? Ah, Facebook quizzes. They’re fun. They’re social. And, they expose you to malware, ransomware, and identity theft—sometimes by design.
