6. Price
The price to value ratio should make sense for what you want. There is no point in paying for premium features that you’ll never use, so pay attention to specific packages. If a website builder has a lower tier package that aligns with your current or future needs, then choosing that option makes the most sense. When evaluating the price of a website this way, you never have to buy more than what’s needed.
5. Design Flexibility
A generic design isn’t worth your time or money. Website building gives you access to a lot of unique designs to help with branding. Even if you haven’t established a ‘look’ for your company, the platform should make the process of adapting to a new look seamless. Transitioning from one look to another can be done lightning fast to keep downtime to a minimum.
4. Customer Service
When things go wrong, the customer service for a website builder should have a quick turnaround time. Sometimes you can get a good idea of what to expect before purchasing a package from a platform.
Is it easy to navigate and find customer service information? And how quickly did support get back to you with an answer? Check out the customer service for a platform before making a final commitment.
3. Ease Of Use
Once everything is working, editing the website should be a breeze. If the management tools are user-friendly, then you don’t need coding experience to edit the website. Text-heavy designs should be no more difficult than typing in your favorite word program. If editing is overwhelming, then chances are the provided tools are not doing their job.
2. Website Performance
Your uptime and page load speed is important for customer retention. No one wants to visit a website that has erratic performance. There is a scenario where an interested consumer visits your website when it is having issues loading. Instead of waiting it out, they go to a competitor. If uptime is in the danger zone daily, then that number can become hundreds or thousands of customers that are turned away.
1. Features
Features tie in with the number six tip, price. Never take on more features than you need when choosing a website building platform. There are benefits to having a website with finely tuned features that a company will use. You also avoid feature bloat, something that is notorious for slow running websites.
Wrap Up
Find a website builder that showcases to consumers the very best parts of your company. Whether the platform is simple or robust, there are features available to help any business. By taking advantage of the latest systems, you guarantee that your website meets consumers standards.
