Diagnosis: Is Your Website Different from Competitors?
Value statement?
Is it easy for visitors to see what results they will get from exploring
your site? Does your website have a clear statement down the lines
of “We
work with [type of people] who want [these results]?” If not, viewers
are likely to click away to the next listing on the search results
page. (See also: Three
Tips for a Powerful and Effective Home Page.
We also recommend Module 3 in particular of SBR-Small
Business Results.)
Branding and corporate identity?
Does your site have clear branding? Does your logo capture the essence
of what you do? (We recommend: Skye
PR is an expert in branding. Martha
Myers Design specializes in logos and corporate identity.)
Visually different layout & colors?
If your website looks the same as your competition, the subliminal
message is “we’re the same as those other guys.” When
you stand out from the crowd, you give your visitors a reason to believe
you are better than the others.
