Good web development not only helps establish your online presence but can also be the key to scaling your business, increasing sales, and improving your market position. Over recent years, web development has significantly evolved, becoming an essential strategic tool for any business aiming to grow.
In this article, we'll explore the essential features of effective web development and how they specifically help scale your business.
What makes web development effective for scaling your business?
Web development that drives growth combines functionality, design, performance, and accessibility—critical elements for attracting and retaining customers while boosting sales and business reach.
Attractive and responsive design
A visually appealing design that's perfectly adapted to any device (mobile-first or responsive design) is crucial for scaling. At Root, we utilise tools such as BrowserStack to ensure correct display across various devices. For instance, after redesigning the website for Dental de Castro dental clinic, we boosted their monthly visits from zero to over 8,000 within 6 months, directly resulting in more patients and higher revenue.
Fast loading speed
Page load speed directly impacts sales and search engine rankings. According to Google, pages should load within 3 seconds to retain visitors. As part of our development services at Root, we optimise images and code using Content Delivery Networks (CDNs), reducing load times from 6 seconds to under 1 second for our clients. This improvement directly increases visitor retention and conversion rates.
