A loved website is an effective website
We all sense when we come across a website that is not loved
Here are 7 ways to love your website...

1. Regular Care |
Your website needs regular nurture. When did you last update any information? Is your last News or Blog post more than a month old? Did you know Google loves a website with regular new content? If you can't easily add your own content take a look at a CMS website.

3. A website is for life not just for Valentine |
Your website should be seen as a journey. Put a monthly repeating entry in your calendar to care for your website. Be focused on implementing actions.
For example:
- Is your website responsive? (see What is a Responsive Website?)
- Ask a stranger to look at the homepage of your website for 8 seconds - then ask them what the website is about
- Can a person with a Visual Impairment clearly read your navigation bar and content?
