Your website is often the first impression prospective customers have of your business, but what if it’s driving them away? Think about it – no one will want to visit or stay on a site that’s slow or confusing to navigate. If the design is outdated, that also doesn’t help your business.
One or any number of these things can cost you a lot of sales. But that’s not even the worst part. Once Google takes notice, your rankings can sink further. That’s like putting a nail in the coffin.
Here’s the good news — with WordPress, you can fix all of these issues efficiently and effectively. In this blog, our experts reveal 5 warning signs your website might be doing more harm than good — and how our WordPress-focused agency can help you turn things around.
1. Your Website Isn’t Mobile-Friendly
It’s no secret that sites that are not responsive on mobile devices are losing money for the business owners. By the end of last year, it was projected that mobile devices would account for roughly 60% of internet traffic globally. Imagine what you stand to lose if your site is not mobile-friendly.
There are several ways you can tell if your site is mobile-friendly or not:
- Text or images cut off or look squished on smaller screens
- Buttons are too small to tap
- Pages take more than 5 seconds to load
- Menus are like a finger-twisting puzzle
How We Help:
Our WordPress developer audit your current website and redesign it using responsive WordPress themes, optimized layouts, and mobile-first UX to ensure a seamless experience across all screen sizes.
2. High Bounce Rates or Low Engagement
If your website has a bounce rate that’s over 60-70%, it’s silently screaming for help. It means visitors come to your page and leave faster than a shopper seeing a ‘sales end today’ sign. The site’s bounce rate is inversely linked to its engagement. To put it simply, if the bounce rate is high, the engagement will be low, and vice versa.
It often happens if your site has a confusing layout. Another reason your site has a high bounce rate is slow load times. A study by Google has revealed that over 53% of users will abandon your site if it takes longer than 3 seconds to load.
To turn this around:
- Make your navigation simple and test it with real users.
- Compress images and ditch bloated code to speed up pages.
- Find where visitors bounce off your site.
How We Help:
Our team uses tools like Google Analytics, Hotjar, and real user feedback to identify bounce triggers, improve site speed, and redesign engagement pathways — all within WordPress.
3. Outdated Design Hurts Credibility
We want you to picture the last time you visited a site with an outdated design. It probably had a cluttered layout, Comic Sans era fonts, and color schemes that hurt your eyes. Did you trust the brand behind it? Your answer will most likely be no, and a study by Stanford shows that over 46% of users agree.
How We Help:
We revamp your entire site using modern, conversion-optimized design principles and tailor it with custom WordPress themes that look great and perform.
4. Boring Headlines
If your page title is boring, vague, or confusing, it will tank your conversions because it has no emotional pull. You can handle this by aligning your message with customers’ pain points, working with a conversion copywriter, or running A/B tests on your headlines.
How We Help:
Our content strategists and UX writers craft high-converting headlines and copy that match your brand voice — tested through A/B experiments and SEO-backed.
5. Poor Conversion Rates
If your visitors are not signing up, buying, or calling, it’s a sign that you need to revisit your site’s design. The problem could be:
- Using weak CTAs – writing “learn more” instead of “Get Your Free Demo Now”.
- Lack of trust (no security badges or testimonials)
- Form fatigue – having your visitors fill out a form with more than 10 fields. Are you for real?
How We Help:
We redesign your sales funnels, optimize CTA placements, reduce form friction, and integrate trust-building elements — all built and tested on WordPress.
