A website isn't "done" forever. Standards move, phones change, and a site that looked fine three years ago can quietly cost you customers today. Here are seven signs it's time for a refresh.

1. It looks dated

First impressions are instant. If your site feels old next to competitors, visitors assume the business is too — fairly or not.

2. It's slow

If pages take more than a couple of seconds to load, people leave. Speed affects both conversions and Google rankings.

3. It's awkward on mobile

Most visitors are on phones. Pinching, zooming and sideways scrolling are dealbreakers. A modern site is built mobile-first.

4. It doesn't bring enquiries

Traffic without enquiries means the site isn't doing its job. Clear calls to action, easy contact and a focused layout turn visitors into leads.

5. You can't update it

If changing a price or adding a page means calling someone or wrestling with clunky software, that friction adds up. A good build makes updates simple.

6. It's invisible on Google

If you don't show up for what you do in your area, you're leaving money on the table. A redesign with proper SEO fixes the foundations.

7. It doesn't reflect who you are now

Businesses evolve. If your site no longer matches your prices, your services or your ambition, it's holding you back.

If you recognised a few of these, a website redesign is likely worth it. We'll tell you honestly whether a refresh or a rebuild makes more sense.
