It’s all about the website user experience. Our shoppers or website visitors are no longer happy with clicking on a basic website and having to find information on their own. If you have an old, homemade or outdated website design you are actually hampering your business. I’ve compiled 9 eye-opening statistics that will help you realize the value of a good website design.
These are real results that have been studied on old, outdated or homemade websites:
