So, you’ve got a website. Maybe you built it yourself, maybe you paid a small fortune for it, or maybe your neighbor’s best friend’s roommate threw something together in exchange for your Netflix password. Whatever the case, it exists. But here’s the real question—is it working for you?
If you’re reading this, chances are, you think your website could do better. Maybe people visit but never reach out. Maybe they land on your homepage and bounce after a cursory glance. Maybe your website is just kind of… there, like a digital business card that nobody actually picks up.
If that sounds familiar, don’t worry—you’re not alone! Most websites underperform not because they’re ugly, outdated, or missing the latest flashy widgets, but because they were built with the wrong mindset. And today, we’re going to fix that.
Here’s the harsh truth: your website isn’t about you.
I know, I know. That stings a little. You worked hard on that About page, carefully crafted your mission statement, and maybe even spent hours picking the perfect shade of blue for your buttons. But if your website is all about your business and not your audience, that’s where the problem starts.
Most businesses fall into the same trap—treating their website like an online brochure, packed with company history, product features, and industry jargon. Meanwhile, visitors are landing on your site asking:
• Can this help me?
• Do I trust this person/business?
• What do I do next?
And if your website doesn’t answer these questions immediately, people leave. That’s why websites with high bounce rates and low conversions often have one thing in common—they are focused on what the business wants to say, not what the visitor needs to hear.
A high-performing website isn’t just a digital placeholder. It’s a conversation—one where the visitor instantly feels seen, understood, guided, and encouraged to take action. So… let’s get into how to make that happen.
Your website copy should feel like a warm handshake, not a corporate presentation. Instead of leading with “We are an award-winning agency with 20 years of experience”, try “Frustrated with a website that doesn’t bring results? Here’s how we fix that.”
See the difference? One talks about the business. The other talks to the visitor. Your goal is to make people feel like your website was built just for them.
Your homepage isn’t just a place to dump company information—it’s a pathway that guides visitors to exactly where they need to go.
Here’s how to structure it:
People are impatient, especially on the internet. If they have to search for how to contact you, figure out what you offer, or click through multiple pages to find your pricing, they’re likely going to bounce.
Make things stupidly easy:
Still not sure if your website is working the way it should? If any of these sound familiar, it’s time for a change:
If you nodded along to any of these, it’s time for an upgrade.
Good news? That’s what I do.
