Is Your Website User Friendly?

Sometimes we get so busy writing content and worrying about making that sale, we forget to look at the entire picture. I'll admit, I've been on the wrong side of this coin. I have totally redone my site, so it is more professional and user friendly. Here are a few things that I've learned to keep in mind:

*Less is actually more! Leave some white space and make it easier on your visitors eyes Not every single area needs an ad.

* Check your links often, make it a priority. If you have broken links that your visitors click on, they will easily click right on out of your website.

* Have a search bar. Make it easy for your traffic to find the information they are looking for.

*Use simple, easy to understand, navigation. If your sites navigation is unclear and complicated, you lose your visitor. People on the web are generally not patient!

* Make sure your contact information is easy to find so that you prove you are a real person that is available to be reached.

* Slow loading sites are not user friendly. You may need to make your images smaller or possibly install a plugin to speed things up. Again, visitor's patience is not in your favor.

Having a user friendly website will positively influence your ranking! :)
