If your website is not generating leads, the cause is usually one of seven fixable problems. Here is how to diagnose each one and what to do about it.
Traffic that does not match your services will never convert. Check Google Search Console for the search terms bringing visitors. If they are informational or unrelated, refocus your pages on the services you sell and the places you serve.
Your headline should say what you offer, who it is for and where. Vague slogans make visitors work too hard.
Every page needs one primary call to action, visible without scrolling on a phone: call, book, or request a quote.
Most local searches happen on phones. Test your pages with PageSpeed Insights. Large images and too many plugins are the usual culprits.
Reviews, case studies, credentials and real photos reduce risk for buyers. Stock photos and no testimonials do the opposite.
Forms that silently fail are more common than most owners think. See our guide to contact forms that do not work.
Without call and form tracking you cannot tell which pages or channels work. Set up conversion tracking in Google Analytics 4 before changing anything else.
Open your site on your phone and check:
If your site fails one or two checks, targeted fixes and landing pages are usually enough. If it fails most of them, or is built on an outdated platform, a website redesign will often cost less than patching. Our free audit tells you which applies.
