The benefits of outsourcing your digital presence

Fay Roe

You can't do everything!

In today's digital world a website is essential for business success. A website is not only a source of information to tell people about the products or services that you provide, but it is also a valuable tool to increase your earnings and boost revenue by attracting more customers.

 

To get these benefits, however, you need to have a sleek, user-friendly website that has quality, engaging and informative content that gives real value to the reader and it needs to be supported by the latest technology.

 

It sounds simple enough, right?

 

There is a wealth of information online that can guide you through the design process and help you understand what is SEO and how it works, but if you don’t possess all of the skills that are needed you risk damaging your digital presence and limiting the success of your online marketing.

 

You need to be honest about your skillset and capabilities!

 

Besides receiving a great web design, there are other advantages of outsourcing your web development: 

Saves your business money

Hiring a web design company is economical. If you plan to design your own website you need to factor in the labour costs for the time it will take you to hone your skills, test the website, edit code and more. Outsourcing web design allows you to work within a controlled budget. There are no hidden extra costs and you will not have your resources (time and energy, not just financial) tested.

Saves your time

Creating an effective website is labour intensive. Any issues that arise can seriously drain you of your precious time; time that could otherwise be spent on other revenue inflating activities. When you run your own business there are never enough hours in the day as it is, so why further burden your schedule?

 

Outsourcing also allows you to set a deadline that fits in with your business goals and objectives. This means that when you say you are going to relaunch your website, it happens. There is no more procrastination or delays due to other unexpected business commitments or obligations that invariably crop up. 

Gives you access to the latest technologies and innovations

Search engines are renowned for updating the algorithms that they use for ranking websites, and as you would expect the SEO best practices adjust in response. A web design and SEO agency keep up to speed with the innovations and will ensure that your website remains highly effective in the digital landscape. 

Quality is guaranteed

Collaborating with a web design and SEO agency means that you are working with professionals who have a deep understanding about how to make your digital marketing a success. This means that your website is technically optimised to boost visibility and business success, and your content is optimised to appeal to your target audience.

An accessible website isn't just a nice-to-have feature - it's essential. At Digital Presence in Christchurch, we believe that designing websites with accessibility in mind creates better experiences for all users, regardless of their abilities. When your website is accessible, you're not only complying with guidelines and regulations but also expanding your reach to a wider audience. Why accessibility matters for your business Did you know that approximately 15% of the global population lives with some form of disability? That's over a billion potential customers who might struggle to use your website if it's not designed with accessibility in mind. Aside from the ethical considerations, accessible web design offers tangible business benefits: Broader audience reach : an accessible website design can be used by everyone, including people with visual, auditory, neurological, and physical impairments. Improved SEO : many accessibility practices align perfectly with SEO best practices, helping your website organically rank higher in search results. Enhanced user experience : features that help users with disabilities often make the experience better for everyone. Legal compliance : many countries already have laws requiring websites to be accessible, so making your website design accessible now reduces the risk of future compliance issues. 7 Accessibility best practices that benefit all users As a leading web design agency in Christchurch, we integrate accessibility into every project we undertake. Let's explore how you can do the same. 1. Optimise colour contrast for better readability Poor colour contrast makes content difficult to read for users with visual impairments, but it affects everyone, especially in challenging lighting conditions like bright sunlight. For example, a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text is recommended. While black text on a white background provides excellent contrast (21:1), using slightly softer combinations reduces eye strain for all users.
