Topic: 27 Ways to Improve Your Website Immediately

27 Ways To Improve Your Website Immediately is for the average (and above average) website owner to learn how to make immediate improvements to their website by themselves. No need to hire a web company for these commonly overlooked best practices that will help your website reach a larger audience and organically rise in Google search results. 
 
8 out of 10 potential customers decide who they’re going to do business with based on the appearance and ease of use of the businesses website. Your business may very well have a better product or service, but if your competitors website is more polished, looks better on a mobile device, is easier to navigate or is higher in Google search results they will win the business almost every time. Don’t let that happen to you!
