Here's another from our portfolio, a leading consultancy & managed service provider, specialising in all aspects of Market Data management. Here we show how we stick to certain rules, whatever project we work on. We really love not only the website we designed but the business cards we created (yes, some people still have business cards!)⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #design #websitedesign #navigation #business #technology

We've worked on hundreds of websites. Creating easy to navigate websites is something we are really good at. One click away, is our preference!⁠ ⁠ And it's not just us, we've seen it in how people browse through websites. Humans are used to looking for things in certain places.⁠ ⁠ Swipe to see our tips!⁠ ⁠ And, if you want to know what NOT to do, there are certain mistakes people make with their website navigation, I see often. They annoy me, but I am not going to let it ruin my day! Instead, I'll list them below, and you can quietly check if you're one of the culprits!⁠ ⁠ 👉 Top navigation links should be only to pages within the website. If you suddenly leave or download a PDF then it's not what people expect and can be confusing.⁠ ⁠ 👉 Contact link should always be visible, not hidden in About⁠ ⁠ 👉 The Team area could be in the About section, but I prefer it to be a main link - "Meet the Team" or "Who We Are" - this is the part of the website people love to click on because they want to see who works at your business!⁠ ⁠ 👉 It's very common for people to put way too many links in their top navigation. No more then seven, trust me! Any more, I can spot it right away - it's too much. It's hard to consolidate in some cases but we've managed with all the websites we do, so if you want tips on your particular struggles, share with me your website address and I am happy to help!⁠ ⁠ #design #business #websites #navigation #webdesign

If you haven't had one of our personalised audits,

If you haven't had one of our personalised audits, you're in for a treat, a revelation! ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ A comprehensive report which includes easy to fix changes and without any obligation to work with us (although we are happy to help)⁠ ⁠ Here are four common mistakes that businesses make on their websites:⁠ ⁠ 👉️ Poor navigation: If a website is difficult to navigate, visitors are likely to leave and go to a competitor's site. Make sure your website has a clear hierarchy and that the navigation is easy to understand.⁠ ⁠ 👉️ Lack of mobile responsiveness: With more and more people accessing the internet on their phones, it's crucial that your website is mobile-friendly. If it's not, you risk losing a significant portion of your audience.⁠ ⁠ 👉️ Slow loading times: No one wants to wait for a website to load, and if it takes too long, visitors will likely leave before they even see your content. Optimize your images and minimize the use of large files to improve loading times.⁠ ⁠ 👉️ Not enough calls to action: Your website should be designed to encourage visitors to take a specific action, whether it's signing up for a newsletter, making a purchase, or contacting you for more information. Make sure your website includes prominent calls to action to guide visitors toward these desired actions.⁠ ⁠ Message us with the words "OWL EYE" to begin booking in your free audit from the team at Top Left Design.⁠ ⁠ #website #mistakes #webdesign #speed #mobilefriendly #offer #owl #spotting #smallbusiness #improve #online #websitedesign #webdesigner

Yes, we actually use this concept from @GapingVoid and do our own “hug a client” exercise, regularly.We talk about clients we need to hug!🤗 What this means is:👉 We check out a client’s website or social media 👉 We get in touch with suggestions on things we can do to improve it, or if we see a bug or error, we either fix it or let them know we can.Clients really appreciate the attention, and it helps us keep those relationships strong!

Jane has always been lovely to work with and over the years, we’ve done two websites, social media campaigns, posters, and brochures for her – she’s creative, talented, and multi-passionate! As a bonus, as an actress and producer, she’s connected to films like Keren’s family so Keren gets to see her in Cannes during the film festival sometimes.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #testimonial #clientlove #jane #film #stage #actress #website design
