For businesses looking to connect with their customers, create memorable interactions, and move quickly, it’s often the most important marketing asset of all, serving as the home base and anchor of key campaigns.
Today, websites are no longer static; in fact, they must regularly evolve if you want them to help you generate real, measurable value. Wilián Iralzabal, founder of Webflow Enterprise Partner, Zabal Media, explains:
You have to keep up with your website even during times of economic challenge — you can’t neglect it. During the pandemic, the businesses I saw suffer the most were the ones who didn’t evolve their websites to meet changing consumer behavior.
Managing a website and defining a web strategy that supports sustainable growth isn’t a simple task. But with the right tools, mindset, and processes in place, marketing teams can build powerful websites that evolve as their businesses grow. So when it comes to developing your own website strategy, here are some key considerations to keep in mind.
Use visual-first tools to save time and money
Whether updating site content or building a new landing page, a highly-efficient team needs to be able to quickly make changes to the website. However, traditional web models are linked to lengthy development timelines, which can stifle productivity, speed to market, and the success quotient of lean marketing teams.
A visual development platform like Webflow puts power into the hands of marketers. It also streamlines the entire web development process, whether it's owned by an engineer, designer, or marketer with some basic development skills.
Wilián at Zabal realized what used to take him three months he could now build in three days with Webflow. Dan Dawson, Senior Manager of Digital Properties at NCR, shared a similar sentiment, joking that he doesn’t need to have 10 developers in the room anymore to get the job done. That’s been the ultimate game changer for him and his team: Webflow has helped them become more productive. It has also helped them reduce friction and remove multiple steps from their workflows: “For being agile, it's really important to find these kinds of tools.”
Consider bringing on an agency for additional or expert support
Even teams with smaller budgets can benefit from bringing on a web development or design agency to help with the website. Agencies have industry knowledge, experience, and the expertise businesses need to bring their vision to life. Collaborating with one is especially useful if you're working on a major project like a site redesign or are operating on a tight timeline.
For teams concerned about staying within a fixed or limited budget, Zabal recommends finding agencies that are flexible — ones who can identify what a client wants and come up with a plan to make it happen within a set budget. Agencies can also share expertise and best practices with their clients, giving marketers the skills they need to take the reins and manage the website themselves over time.
Regularly audit and optimize your website
Your website should be constantly evolving. Therefore, it’s important to take a step back from time to time and assess how well it’s working for your business. Consider asking the following questions as a starting point:
- Is it accessible?
- Is it user friendly?
- Does the visual design resonate with your target audience?
- Is the layout and navigation intuitive?
- Is the messaging compelling, relevant, and accurate?
- Is it optimized for mobile?
- Are there clear CTAs across the site?
Once you have the answers to these questions, you can create a game plan for how to improve and optimize your website. Consider what goals and objectives are most important to the business, and prioritize updates that will generate the most value. If you’re looking to generate more traffic to the homepage, for example, consider focusing on SEO and messaging. Map out what needs to happen, who needs to be involved, what outcomes you’re looking to generate, and how quickly it needs to happen. But remember: be realistic about how much you can do with the resources you have, and don’t forget that your website will be a constant work in progress.
Strategic website advice from industry leaders
While there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to website strategy, some of the marketing leaders we chatted with shared key advice they think teams should keep in mind as they focus on refining their websites.
Dawson of NCR believes it’s crucial to keep the homepage and key landing pages fresh. He also shared the importance of security and site usability, likening web engineers to architects and marketers to artists. He understands that marketers want something that looks good and feels exciting, but cautioned: “Like an architect, you still need to think about the structural elements, so that it's a safe foundation to build on.”
Wilián of Zabal Media encourages marketers to approach their website with agility. He explains, “Instead of attempting to create [everything] all at once, break things down into doable parts. Prioritize and focus on what is most valuable to consumers before building it out further.”
Pallis of Pavilion believes websites should sit at the center of every digital team: “It’s the core of everything you're doing and the heart and soul of your digital strategy.” Her advice for marketers is to not fall into the trap of making your website resonate with every possible site visitor. Instead, pinpoint your target audience, industry, and personas and offer solutions to their pain points through your content and messaging.”
Prepare your business for changing macroeconomic conditions
Today, it’s more important than ever for leaders to position their teams for sustainable, long-term success. And as industry and market conditions continue to shift, it’s up to decision makers to invest in the right tools and processes that help them deliver on their goals, even in the face of unforeseen business challenges.
Webflow is a visual development platform that empowers teams to build powerful, highly-custom websites, without writing a line of code. We help organizations get ahead in today’s changing macroeconomic environment by empowering marketers and designers to build and manage fully-custom websites. In turn, teams are able to redeploy their engineering and IT resources to other high impact initiatives, significantly reducing operational expenses.
We also believe bringing more marketing campaigns to market shouldn’t come at the expense of quality or power. That’s why Webflow helps leading companies like Shift.com, HelloSign, and Rakuten streamline the entire web development process from design to launch. We give marketing and design teams both the power of speed and the ability to push the boundaries of visual design to build more than simple landing pages — rather, impactful sites tailored to specific goals.
