What Makes a Construction Website Great?
Website agencies would love to give you all the bells and whistles (for a price!), insisting that each feature is critical to your success. But what are the actual parts of your website that matter?
In the examples below, you're not going to always see a website that looks super sexy or offers every digital tool in the book. But they work great for customers, and here's why:
- They are visually appealing.
- It's super easy to know where to go to find what you need (navigation).
- They showcase excellent work done.
- Most offer authentic customer testimonials.
- Services, products, and offerings are clearly stated and explained.
- NAP (name, address, phone number) are clear and consistent across the website.
- They've made it easy to take next steps.
