A well-structured website is one of the most effective tools your business can have for reaching and engaging with customers. The right content helps ensure your website performs well in search rankings and gives visitors the information they need.
A clear, user-friendly website not only improves the experience for existing customers but also helps convert visitors into new leads. Carefully considered content helps showcase your business’s expertise, respond to common customer questions, and build trust with your audience. Structuring your site properly can also help search engines understand what your business offers, which in turn makes it easier for potential customers to find you online. Taking the time to ensure your content is high quality, or investing in an expert who has the experience to get it right, is essential if you want your digital presence to accurately reflect your business values, services, and strengths.
Here are our tried and tested content tips on what your business’s website should include.
Clear Business Information
Start with clear, concise business information. This should be easy to find, and clearly written on your website’s home page. It should include who you are, what you do, and where you’re based. This helps build trust with visitors and ensures they can quickly understand what to expect from your business.
Products and Services Pages
Create a dedicated page for each product or service to help users find what they need and to support your search rankings. Instead of grouping everything together, separate pages allow space to go into detail about what’s included, how it works, and who it’s for. Including testimonials or FAQs can help people decide to contact or buy from you.
A Clear Contact Page
Make sure customers and potential customers can easily find your business’s contact details. Your contact page should include your phone number, email address, and physical address (if relevant). Adding business hours and a map can also be beneficial. Including this information to your website’s footer as well ensures it’s accessible on every page making it even easier for customers to contact you.
A Well-Written About Page
Many users visit the About page to learn more about the people behind the business. It’s an opportunity to communicate your background, experience, and values whilst ‘humanising’ your business. Focus on what sets you apart or makes you credible, particularly if your services involve trust or long-term contracts.
High Quality Images
Include strong, relevant images. Good photography not only makes a website more attractive, but it also helps communicate the tone and professionalism of your brand. For product-based businesses, quality images are critical to purchase decisions.
Product Descriptions for Ecommerce Websites
If you sell online, make sure each product has a unique, informative description. Don’t just use manufacturer text or copy from elsewhere. Clear descriptions that focus on features, specifications, and common use cases will help with both search performance and conversion.
Regularly Updated Blog
Updating your site regularly with blog posts or news helps show that your business is active and knowledgeable. Posts can answer common questions, highlight customer success stories, or introduce new services. This helps with long-tail SEO and gives users more reasons to explore your site.
