User Experience | Listen to potential clients about what they want out of a website
• 2-3 second load times or else I’m out of here
• Simple, easy to navigate menus (don’t get fancy)
• Well structured text that is easy to scan (nobody really reads anymore)
• Embedded videos to keep us on that page longer
• Engaging/useful content and appealing website design (don’t just write content for the algorithm, write for your potential clients)
