Is your WordPress site quietly falling behind without you even realizing it? Many business owners assume their website is “fine” until something breaks or traffic starts to drop off. Slow load times, outdated content, and broken features can seriously affect user experience, SEO performance, and your bottom line. If you’ve noticed any of these warning signs, it might be time to consider them as signs your WordPress site needs help.
Your website is your business’s digital storefront. Keeping web content updated, relevant, and engaging is essential for attracting and retaining customers.

With modern websites becoming more and more sophisticated in both look and behavior the expectation that a standard web hosting company will take care of everything your website needs is simply not correct. The game plan of hiring a web designer that builds a new website and then moves it to a hosting company to sit indefinitely is no longer a viable plan for you or your website. Today you really need a webmaster.
A company can spend a lot of money, time and resources developing a new website. It is an exciting time filled with great expectations as the internet provides a constant supply of users searching for products and services and a great looking website can really help attract customers. It is easy to think that if you get everything right during this design and development phase you are going to be all set in upcoming years.
At the start of 2012 we were requested by a client to change their Online Store login requirement from “Username” to “e-mail” so that it would be easier for the client to be able to sign in (or reset their password) without having to remember their username (no one ever forgets their e-mail!). At Bear Web Design, we understand the issue of username overload.
If you were asked today how did your website perform this year could you give an informed, statistical answer? Websites are now a key component of most business. Understanding how this area performed, and what changes or improvements might be needed should be at least an annual part of business planning.
Last week, I listened to my favorite jazz station and heard an advertisement for a web design company. Curious about the competition, I visited their website and did some “snooping.” It raised the question: Should We Leave it to the Professionals?
This last weekend we took a new client’s website live – which is always an exciting event for the client and for any web design company. You work with the client from the point of an initial sales inquiry to analysis to design and development and then deployment. And this is why your website is more than just a website.
