Make sure that the user experience is quick and enjoyable
When your users arrive on your site, you must ensure that they have a positive technological experience. There are a few crucial aspects to keep an eye on.
- Bounce rates are lower and user engagement is higher on sites that load faster. Make sure you are using a reliable web hosting business with a good reputation for speed. Your website will be slow if your host is slow.
- Use Google Search Console to your advantage. It will let you know if any of your web pages are taking too long to load and what you can do about it. It will also notify you if any of your website's links are broken.
- Make sure your website's photos are not too enormous, as this will slow it down. Aim for a file size of less than 500KB. Also, make sure the "alt text" has a description of the photo.
- Ensure that the user experience is mobile-friendly. More than 70% of Google searches are now conducted on mobile devices. You will lose out if your website is not accessible or pleasurable to use on mobile devices.
