Check out our 2020 Website Checklist to find out if your website is ready for 2020!
Design:
There are well over 1 billion websites in the world! With that kind of variety, it can be a challenge to create an interesting website. One of the best ways to make your website stand out is through beautiful design. Block styles, straight lines, and cluttered pages are not engaging. Which is why we recommend a minimalist style (simple menus, minimal clutter) combined with asymmetry and fluid shapes. Another great way to make your website pop is through bold and contrasting color! Micro-Interactions like hover effects and motion pages are ways to elevate the style of your website and make it more interactive!

Landing Pages:
About Landing Pages: Having a great landing page could be the difference between a visitor becoming a customer, or leaving your site and never returning. A landing page is a page on your website that the user “lands” on when they click on a link from an email, search result, social post, etc.
Motion: Motion is the way of the future. That’s why we recommend movement on all landing pages. Motion could come in the form of a video, an animated graphic, loading animations, and hover effects. This is a great opportunity for your brand to get creative and make interesting content that your customers will love.
Navigation: Since your landing page is the first impression of your website, it’s important to have a page that leads them to the next steps in becoming a customer of your business. CTA’s (call to action) are clickable buttons on your website that visually stand out and prompt the user to take action. This could be “Call Us Now!”, or “Request a Quote”, or a link that leads them to another page on your website.
Vector Logo: Your vector logo is the little black dress of your brand. Just as you wear your little black dress to every occasion, your logo should make an appearance on every page of your website.

Mobile:
Responsiveness: Over 50% of website traffic is mobile. Having a site that is responsive (adapts to a wide variety of devices) is no longer a ‘nice-to-have’, it’s a ‘must-have’! And, just as your website needs to be responsive, so does your logo.
Communication: Because half of your visitors are viewing your website from their mobile device, you need to make sure they can also communicate with you from that device. In the age of instant gratification, you should consider text and chat features on your website. Read 4 reasons why your website needs chat!
Simplicity: Mobile users are more likely to be on the go or looking for quick information. Make navigation even easier for them by simplifying the content and navigation on your pages.
