As a dedicated breeder, you know that having a strong online presence is crucial for your business. However, if your website looks like it was created in 2001 (and if it was), it’s time for a change. An outdated and unattractive website can significantly impact your credibility and turn potential customers away. Breeder Designs is here to help you redesign and rebuild your current website into a modern, creative, and visually appealing platform that showcases your unique cat or dog breeding business.
At Breeder Designs, we understand the concerns you may have about losing your hard-earned backlinks, domain authority, and other important aspects of your current website. That’s why we are fully equipped to handle the complexities of a breeder website redesign. We’ll ensure that your new site not only looks fantastic but also preserves the valuable elements you’ve worked so hard to build.
The Importance of Redesigning Your Website
Having a well-designed and up-to-date website is essential for any breeder. Here’s why:
Enhance Your Credibility: Your website is often the first impression potential customers have of your breeding business. A modern and visually appealing website instills trust and professionalism, giving your visitors confidence in your services.
Improve User Experience: An outdated website can be clunky, slow, and difficult to navigate. By redesigning your website, you can create a user-friendly interface that makes it easy for visitors to find the information they need and explore your offerings.
Stay Ahead of the Competition: The online world is constantly evolving, and your website needs to keep up. By embracing modern design trends and technologies, you can differentiate yourself from competitors and show that you’re a breeder who stays ahead of the curve.
The Pitfalls of Incorrect Website Redesign
While redesigning your website is essential, it’s crucial to do it right. Here are some common pitfalls to avoid:
Neglecting URL Structure: Changing your website’s URLs without proper redirects can lead to broken links and loss of valuable backlinks. Breeder Designs understands the importance of preserving your breeding site’s structure and implementing effective redirects to maintain your search engine rankings. We also understand the importance of rebuilding, optimizing, and improving old content.
Inadequate Submission: Simply launching a new website isn’t enough. You need to ensure that search engines are properly notified of the changes. Breeder Designs takes care of submitting your updated sitemap to search engines, ensuring they crawl and index your new site seamlessly.
Ignoring Mobile Responsiveness: About half of internet users access websites through mobile devices, having a mobile responsive site is essential. A poor mobile experience can lead to high bounce rates and lost customers. Breeder Designs ensures that your new website is fully optimized for mobile devices, providing a seamless experience across all platforms. Website mobile responsiveness became a significant consideration with the rise of smartphones and the increasing use of mobile devices for internet browsing. The concept gained prominence around 2010 when mobile usage started to equal desktop usage in some regions. As a result, web developers and designers began adapting their websites to ensure optimal user experience across various screen sizes and devices. Mobile responsiveness became a ranking factor for Google search results on April 21, 2015. On that date, Google implemented a significant algorithm update dubbed “Mobilegeddon” or “Mobile Friendly Update.” This update aimed to prioritize mobile-friendly websites in search results, penalizing those that were not optimized for mobile devices.
Since then, having a mobile friendly website has become increasingly important for search engine optimization (SEO) and organic visibility on Google. Google’s algorithms consider mobile-friendliness as a ranking factor, and websites that are mobile-friendly tend to rank higher in search results on mobile devices. Therefore, it is important to prioritize responsive design when creating a website to ensure it looks and functions well on all devices and to improve its visibility in search engine results.
Google’s Newest INP Update: In 2024, Google introduced the newest INP (Interaction to Next Paint) update, which focuses on improving user experience by optimizing website responsiveness and interactivity. This update is particularly important for breeder websites, which need to provide seamless navigation and quick access to information. With the INP update, Google aims to enhance how websites respond to user interactions, ensuring faster load times and smoother transitions. This means that your redesigned breeder website will not only look great but also perform exceptionally well, offering an improved user experience that can lead to higher engagement and conversions.
Ignoring Any Responsive Design: Many website builders push the idea that websites can be built with a mobile phone. Technically they can, but building a website on a mobile phone leave the other half of users who access the site with a desktop or laptop computer or a tablet with a bad experience and a low impression of the business. Websites built via mobile phone will have layout issues, text and font size issues, photo size and optimization issues, and just look terrible. There is really no way to structure a website for all devices using a mobile phone. Google and other major search engines emphasize the importance of having a responsive design for websites. Responsive design means that a website adapts and adjusts its layout and content based on the device it is being viewed on, such as a mobile phone, tablet, or desktop computer. Google specifically recommends using responsive web design as it helps ensure that your website provides a good user experience across different devices, not just on mobile! Responsive websites are easier to navigate, read, and interact with, regardless of the screen size or orientation. Additionally, having a responsive design can positively impact your website’s search engine rankings.
