There are only a few web design agencies that know how to design well.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Where_to_Search_for_the_Product\"><\/span><b>1. Where to Search for the Product?<br>\n<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Research says that you only have 8 seconds to grab the attention of your customer and if in those 8 seconds the customer does not find what he is looking for, God bless you! Hey, but wait, I can help, however. Continue reading!<\/p>\n<p>The web is an archive of information. To keep your customers engaged, you need to provide them with a clear, easy-to-use search box. When a visitor searches, he should get something relevant to his search or be directed to something where he can find his solution. As an Entrepreneur, making a website is easy, but the usability part, where the customer can view and search things, is the hardest. Make sure to make it convenient for the customers.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7428\" src=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/search-box.png\" alt=\"search box for website\" width=\"845\" height=\"446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/search-box.png 760w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/search-box-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/search-box-370x195.png 370w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/search-box-270x142.png 270w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/search-box-570x301.png 570w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/search-box-740x390.png 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 845px) 100vw, 845px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Cluttered_Landing_Page\"><\/span><strong>2. Cluttered Landing Page<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Treat every page as a landing page. Moreover, make sure to declutter every single page. Nothing frustrates the customer more than a cluttered page. On every page, just put down the necessary stuff and leave out the ones that are not relevant to your customer. The attention span of a human being is not more than 5 seconds, so make sure you grab that 5-second slot and make good use of it. Moreover, the only way to make good use of those five seconds is to give the customer what is most important to you and the customer.<\/p>\n<p><u><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-7429 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/clutterfree-homepage.png\" alt=\"clutter free hompage\" width=\"1024\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/clutterfree-homepage.png 1024w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/clutterfree-homepage-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/clutterfree-homepage-768x385.png 768w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/clutterfree-homepage-370x185.png 370w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/clutterfree-homepage-270x135.png 270w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/clutterfree-homepage-570x286.png 570w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/clutterfree-homepage-740x371.png 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/u><strong><u><br>\n<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Sour_Content\"><\/span><strong>3. Sour Content<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Nothing kills a website design other than dull content. Writing is the easy part; it is the persuasion that is hard. Moreover, if you cannot persuade your customers with great content, you will not get high-volume orders. Research your content. Research your product and share it in a readable manner. Do not write for <strong>Google Spider<\/strong>, write so people can read your content and do business with you. Make them feel special with your content, and they will be happy to place an order on your website.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Keep_it_Mobile-only\"><\/span><strong>4. Keep it Mobile-only<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Apart from being simple, your website needs to be exclusive for mobile too. Keep both the websites, mobile &amp; web separate. The best is to create a mobile app. Hire a <a href=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/mobile-application-development\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">custom mobile app development company<\/a> and spend your energy on other things, but whatever you do, be very strict when it comes to showcasing your content on mobile. On mobile, keep your content short and relevant. Do not clutter with irrelevant material that is of no benefit to your customer. Keep it simple, but keep it persuasive.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7436\" src=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/mobile-optimized.jpg\" alt=\"mobile optimized\" width=\"838\" height=\"621\" srcset=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/mobile-optimized.jpg 800w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/mobile-optimized-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/mobile-optimized-768x569.jpg 768w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/mobile-optimized-370x274.jpg 370w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/mobile-optimized-270x200.jpg 270w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/mobile-optimized-570x423.jpg 570w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/mobile-optimized-740x549.jpg 740w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/mobile-optimized-80x60.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 838px) 100vw, 838px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Call-to-Action_Button\"><\/span><strong>5.

I mean, seriously? Keep your call-to-action button in front and make it visible to people. As an Entrepreneur, your goal is to generate leads, and the best way to make leads is to use a bold, visible call-to-action button.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7437\" src=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/call-to-action.jpg\" alt=\"call to action\" width=\"850\" height=\"566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/call-to-action.jpg 700w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/call-to-action-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/call-to-action-370x246.jpg 370w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/call-to-action-270x180.jpg 270w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/call-to-action-570x379.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_What_To_Do_Next\"><\/span><strong>6. What To Do Next?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Do not force your customers to think. I repeat, do not let your customers think about what to do next on your website. Design your website in a frictionless, seamless manner. Be very clear on what you want your customers to do. Moreover, the content should be put most simply. Either add a section on &lsquo;<strong>how to place an order<\/strong>&rsquo; or make the order placement as easy as possible.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Unfavorable_Screen_Resolution\"><\/span><strong>7.
