In the digital age, your website is often the first impression potential customers have of your business. But with the cost of living crisis, businesses need to tighten their belts with what they are spending, even if they still need to generate results.

Here are some quick, easy and affordable ways to boost both your website’s traffic and conversion rates.

Mobile-Friendly is Non-Negotiable

Quick Tip:
Run your website through Google’s Mobile-Friendly Test to see where you can improve.
Social Proof
Showcase reviews, testimonials, or user-generated content to build trust. Visitors are more likely to convert when they see that others have had a positive experience with your brand.
Quick Tip:
You can easily add a plugin that allows users to leave reviews or testimonials on your site or site’s where you have a presence.
Call-to-Action (CTA)
Your CTA should be clear, concise, and compelling. Use action-oriented text such as, “Buy Now,” “Learn More,” or “Get Started.” Make the decision making as easy as possible for your visitors.
Quick Tip:
A/B test different CTAs to find out which one drives more conversions.
