CHECKLIST : CURRENT SITES
Key factors of successful websites: A short, memorable domain. Google optimization (search results). A start page that gets to the point quickly and has *all* important info. A simple but effective logo. Simple, clear and error-free texts. A unique design / layout. Good-looking typefonts. Short loading times. Interesting content and images. Simple, clear contact methods. Web links to social media pages (Facebook etc.) and perhaps the most important factor: A positive, friendly website that is at once engaging & inspiring! Be sure to use success factors of websites✓
Fact: More than 50% of all website visitors use mobile devices (i.e. Android phones, iPhones, iPads etc.) but most websites are not optimized for that. They are hard to use, read and navigate. An experienced webdesign agency can develop additional layouts and menus to make a website 'responsive'. Google punishes sites by downgrading if they're not mobile-friendly!
Responsive web design mobile-optimized✓
On the internet, there are *many* expensive websites that are worthless because they hardly generate user traffic. When testing the quality of the SEO with the website's primary keyphrases, a good site will be on the first two SERPs in Google. Only this test will prove the SEO skills of the web developer and show that they understand Google Search Engine Optimization, an often difficult art mastered only by the best web experts. Great Google Rankings for your keywords✓
New websites should always run via secure SSL connection. Web browsers give visual cues such as a lock icon or a green bar and 'https://' to make sure visitors know that their connection is secured. This means that they will trust your website. In addition, Google has confirmed that SSL encrypted websites rank higher in search results. SSL is a must. Safe SSL encryption https:// for every site✓
PHP is the programming language that 79% of all websites are built on (according to w3techs.com), and its version is set at the server-level by your hosting company. Most websites were programmed in version 7, but this old version is now outdated. When your hosting company stops support for PHP 7, it's possible that your website does NOT work anymore! In this case, you will need a web developer who re-programs the website to make it compatible with PHP 8.2. There is a similar problem with Google Maps in websites which should be replaced by OSM. Use new programming language: PHP 8.2✓
A fast-loading website is a must. Not only will it keep visitors longer on the site, fast-loading websites will rank better in the Google search results (as confirmed by Google itself). Also, with the high number of different Javascript (.js) and CSS (.css) files in modern websites, most developers fail at bundling it all together in a compact way and reducing the number of web server requests when a site is loaded. This can be solved. Fewer server requests by file optimization✓
Sadly, most websites contain writing errors. This shows a lack of respect for the users. A good web developer ensures that new sites don't contain any typos. Also, so-called SEO Copywriting is used to integrate the relevant Google search terms into the texts. And finally, websites in German should contain an English version as the web is world wide. Page texts and SEO error-free/multilingual✓
