The ones that cost the most.

NO CLEAR STATEMENT OF WHAT YOU DO

Visitors cannot tell within seconds whether they are in the right place.

HIDDEN CONTACT DETAILS

The most damaging and most easily fixed.

NO CALL TO ACTION

Pages that inform and ask nothing.

SLOW LOADING

Usually enormous images.

NOT WORKING ON MOBILE

Where most visitors are.

STOCK PHOTOGRAPHS

Recognised instantly, and they reduce trust.

TEXT TOO SMALL OR TOO LIGHT

Genuinely hard to read.

OUT-OF-DATE INFORMATION

Old prices, old hours, old staff, a copyright date from three years ago.

AN ABANDONED BLOG

Visible neglect.

A BROKEN CONTACT FORM

Losing enquiries nobody knows about. Test it monthly.

NOBODY MAINTAINING IT

The underlying cause of most of the above.

NO BACKUPS

Turning a small problem into a rebuild.

THE PATTERN

Almost all of these are cheap to fix and expensive to leave.
