A Checklist for Making your Website Sticky
Once you’ve gotten people to your website, you’ll want to keep them there. How can you engage the visitor – keep them from clicking out?
An engaged customer drills down into your site and locates what he or she wants. Once engaged, the balance of your site has a chance to do its job.
To really IMMERSE your site visitors, you’ll want a strong design, clear copy and a clear path through the site to a call to action.
Here’s Mona’s Four Rules of Keeping Visitors on your Site:
- Discover Your Aesthetic While Reflecting Your Brand
A custom site has to make the case for your company in a differentiated, compelling, and memorable way. Your brand’s unique appeal is a powerful magnet for your customer’s uptake of your message. The single focus is to make your final site a seamless extension of your marketing efforts, styled to match your brand so that your clients/customers know they are in familiar and welcoming territory when they arrive. - It’s All About the Experience – Unique Website Design
Does your visitor get a unique experience upon stepping in to your site? Mona and her team build singular sites that connect right away with visitors. They are extraordinary without being expensive. The uniqueness feeds into the site’s recall and retention and encourages visitors to share the URL with others. With unique website design, you can’t lose. - Easy To Access Information
Some sites create friction with the visitor – hard to navigate, tough to extract the facts, jumbled design. Mona Pennypacker is ruthless about keeping those issues away from your site. She focuses on fresh images and layouts with room for the eye to relax. Headings need to communicate for people who skim read. And support intuitive navigation. These principles – and more – are what Acorn CS employs to keep your visitors glued to your site. - It’s Simple – Make Sure There’s a Call to Action
When your web site does its job, the visitor at some point will commit to a course of action that may end up in a sale. In the case of e-commerce, it means a purchase or perhaps a visit to the retailer who sells your product. This is the engagement payoff. Let’s not forget it.When your business is on the line by being on line, you are dealing with a single imperative. Ultimately, you must make a sale.
P.S. Rule
In all of these rules, it’s important you invigorate your site. That you communicate enthusiasm and excitement. A lot of this will come from your words, so Acorn CS believes in the power of copy as much as they do in the strength of graphics. They have great writers on tap …who will ensure your visitors feel as positive about your product as you do. And convey that with emphatic wordsmithing.
