If you run a local business in Wilmington, your website is often the first impression people get. But what if that first impression is pushing customers away?
Here are 5 common website mistakes that cost Wilmington businesses leads every day—and how to fix them:
1. Slow Load Times
Customers leave after just a few seconds if your site takes too long to load. Compress images, minimize unnecessary scripts, and use fast hosting.
2. Not Mobile-Friendly
Over 60% of traffic comes from phones. If your website isn’t mobile-optimized, it’s likely losing visitors fast.
3. No Clear Call-to-Action (CTA)
What do you want your visitors to do—call you, book an appointment, request a quote? Make it clear and visible on every page.
4. Outdated Design
A website that looks like it hasn’t been updated since 2010 creates distrust. A modern, clean design builds credibility and keeps visitors engaged.
5. Missing SEO Basics
If your site doesn’t show up on Google, customers can’t find you. Optimizing your pages with keywords like “Wilmington [your service]” can make a big difference.
