Website Design :: Site Redesign
Upgrading your website
If your Website is out of date, tired and no longer doing the job it is designed to do then it is time for either a redesign or a rebuild of your web presence. Websites require updating and improving on a continuous basis.
The need to move on
You will see many Websites on the internet today that looked and worked fine 5 years ago but today look what they are. Slow, outdated and in many cases broken. Those sites have failed to move with the times and the changes in internet technology that have changed the face of the web forever.
As web technologies and modern browsers move ahead more and more old stagnant websites fall by the wayside as they cease to function properly in today's environment.
Is it Time for a Change for your Web Site?
Keeping pace on the web
The longer sites are left and not updated the further they fall behind their competitors in the search engines and consequently the less effective they become in their aim of promoting the business that they represent.
Your website is part of the public face of your company. Are you really satisfied to have that public face look old, outmoded, ragged and none functional?
If your company is bright, forward looking, efficient and professional shouldn't your companies website reflect that image too?
Redesign Example
Below is an example of a website redesign. The original was created entirely in Flash, making it take a great deal of time to download and very difficult and expensive to update. As the site was constructed entirely in Flash it was not optimised for search engines or accessible to screen readers.
NOTE: Flash has come a long way since the construction of the site below, however sites constructed entirely of Flash do take much longer to download than structural markup websites. At Linx Data Ltd. we firmly believe that commercial sites should be fast and accessible to the widest possible audience. The original site also did not feature consistent navigation or provide any room for expansion.
Below is the redesigned website. The new site features fast easy navigation with plenty of room for future expansion and the addition of additional sections and sub sections. It is constructed with structural markup and can be updated easily. You will note that it also displays a much greater amount of information per page. The design is not limited to just the opening viewable window. More information can be added within the existing pages too. This is obviously not the case in the Flash only example above.
The original site failed to bring in business or to do well in the search engines. The replacement site has produced excellent search engine results and brought in significant additional business to the company to the extent that the company is now expanding to new much larger premises.
