Designer's Desk: Build Your Website One Piece at a Time

Tue, Jun 29th 2010 09:00 am

There's that old adage: "Rome wasn't built in a day."

Let's face it, neither was your business or your brand.  It probably took months, or even years of hard work to get where you are today.  So there's no reason that you have to do everything all at once when it comes to your website.  Whether you think you're finally ready for a new website or just want to touch up your old one with some contemporary callouts and fresh content, the Fission Web System allows you to grow your website with your business or organization.

Consistency is key.  Keeping your website current with the rest of your marketing materials is important. After all, with the growth of the Internet and social media sites, more and more people are finding you online first, so be sure to convey your brand to your customers through a modern, professional-looking website.

As you grow as a business or organization you want your website to reflect who you are and what you represent.  That doesn't mean you need to do a complete overhaul of your website every year though. You can build your site a little bit at a time. 

If you think your site could use a little touching up, we have a few ways that you can keep your site looking fresh to new and repeat visitors. 

Callouts

Callout graphics are a great way to quickly update your site to help make online conversions.  Create colorful buttons with catchy text to point visitors to contact pages, service forms, surveys, or any of your other online goals.

Flash

Adding a custom Flash piece to your homepage or a splash page can catch a visitor's attention and draw them into your site. 

Social Media

Incorporating social media in your website helps you reach out to more visitors and drive traffic back to your site.  360 PSG's new social media package ties all of your social media together with your website.  You can post a news article to your website and automatically send a link with a custom message to your Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn accounts right from the backend of your website without having to sign in to your individual social media platforms. 

Content Refresh

Cleaning up your content is important.  First, it gives your visitors something new to read.  Think about your favorite sites to visit.  You probably keep going back because they have something new to offer each time you return.  Return the favor of fresh content to your visitors.

Second, refreshing content tells search engines that your site isn't stagnant.  Google likes sites that stay up to date.  There's a better chance that you'll rank higher in search engine results if you refresh your content at least once every other month. 

Knock the cobwebs off of your website and impress your visitors with fresh content, colorful callouts, social media integration, or a brand new look all together.
