Imagine owning a shop that stays open 24 hours a day, never takes a sick day and doesn’t need generator fuel. That’s your website. The question is: when customers walk in, do they find a beautiful, organised shop, or a dusty room with a “back in 5 minutes” sign from 2019?
Here’s a quick checklist. Grab your phone, open your website, and be honest.
The phone test
Most of your customers will visit your website on their phones, probably while stuck in traffic. Can they read the text without zooming? Can they tap the buttons without hitting three things at once? If not, you’re losing people before they even say hello.
The five-second test
Show your homepage to someone for five seconds, then ask them what your business does. If they can’t tell you, your website needs a clearer headline and a simpler message.
The “how do I pay you?” test
Can a customer easily find how to buy, book or contact you? Your phone number, WhatsApp link or contact form should never be a treasure hunt.
The speed test
If your website takes forever to load, people will leave. Big, heavy images are usually the culprit. A good website loads quickly, even on mobile data.
The freshness test
Does your website still mention last year’s promo? Outdated information makes people wonder if you’re still in business. Keep it current.
Ready before the festive rush
With Christmas around the corner, people will be searching, shopping and booking more than ever. If your website isn’t ready, now is the perfect time to fix it.
We design and build websites that look great, load fast and make it easy for customers to say yes. Start a project and let’s get your shop properly open for business.
With love, the Bami Studios team
