  • Don’t include more than 5-7 pages in the main navigation.
  • Make the site easy to scan with columns, icons and visual breaks.

Website Design and User Experience [12:32]

  • You want your visitors to have a seamless experience when they visit your website.
  • Your website copy should reflect who you are, what you do and who you do it for.
  • The images you use should reinforce your copy
  • When it comes to user experience, ask yourself where you want your visitors to click next.
  • Having a separate blog page is also a good idea, as this can help you to drive traffic and boost your SEO.

Your Website Messaging [40:26]
