Website Word Wednesday: Navigation aka Nav Bar or Website Word Wednesday: Navigation aka Nav Bar or Main Meu 

These are the links at the top of the page to help you find what you're looking for. They are usually in the header or right below it. 

When your site is viewed on a mobile device, the navigation usually morphs into a 3 lined icon (aka a "hamburger") since space is limited. Doesn't it sort of look like one sideways?! When you click the hamburger either a vertical or horizontal toggle menu appears. 

When a site is very complete and has many pages, you will see a "mega menu" which is a drop-down menu that shows many links organized in categories and subcategories, similar to a sitemap. 

What kind of navigation do you have on your website? Does anyone have a hamburger on both their mobile and desktop site?

Happy Monday! Here’s a list of updates you shoul Happy Monday! Here’s a list of updates you should keep in mind this month. ✨

➡️ Update the Copyright in your Footer ©

You know, that cute little c in the bottom of your site. You'll want to update it to the current year. Doing so communicates to your visitors that you actually update your website and that you're still in business. 

➡️ Update any other dates on your website 

Again, the goal is to keep your website as current as possible. For example, in my bio, I mention I've been designing websites for 15 years. Well, it's now 16 years.  Other examples could include how many clients you serve or how many donors you have. 

➡️ Do a broken link check 

If you have WordPress, grab yourself the free broken link checker plugin and give it a whirl. It will show you where your links need to be fixed. 

➡️ Perform a Visual Inspection 

And it's always wise to give every page on your site a visual check. There's not a better time than with the start of a new year. 

Have a question about any of these updates? Or think you might just need an extra hand with your website? Send me a DM. I'd love to hear from you.

The time has come to redesign your website. The qu The time has come to redesign your website. The question is, should you do it yourself or hire someone? 🤔

The reality is that you can design a website pretty easily for not a ton of money. However, people seem to forget about these reasons why DIY is not always the best option:

⚡️Time: Is this the most valuable use of your time? Could you be serving your clients instead of spending hours trying to figure out how to just make this photo align perfectly to the middle of the text next to it? 

⚡️Expertise: Your website is up and has words and images, but a good web designer does so much more than that. We design strategic websites that are made to turn every single visitor into a client or donor.  Our pages are laid out in a certain way, elements have specific colors and images and styled in an intentional way. All in an effort to convert. 

⚡️Performance: So you've designed your site. All. By. Yourself. But...it takes 12 seconds to load and isn't showing up on google. And when you look on your phone the text is getting cut-off. The back end stuff is just as important as designing. And that's why a professional can help. 

So, bottom line, you can design your own website. But make sure you ask yourself:

➡️ Do I have the time?

➡️ Do I have the expertise?

➡️ Can I make sure of performance and security? 

If the answer is NO, let's chat and how I can help you make your website shine and let you get back to business.

Want to kick 2021 off on the right financial foot? Want to kick 2021 off on the right financial foot? 💵

I had the pleasure of chatting with @bethblaneyassociates for my conversation series about her passion for helping small businesses and solopreneurs with their bookkeeping and remote office support. Her mission is to serve as the backbone of your business so you can flourish and shine, and connect with your clients.

She understands the struggles small businesses face keeping their financial houses in order. 

Curious to know her #1 thing to do in an effort to become more fiscally responsible?

Stop commingling! Seriously… no matter the size or situation, make sure that you have a separate bank account and credit card! 

Next: hire a bookkeeper. Even if it’s just to set up or review your books. Even if you already have one. Get a second set of eyes, if only for an hour!

Curious about the 3 actions you can take today? Check out the entire post on the blog. Link in my bio.  

And if you’re interested in some professional help with your bookkeeping or remote office support, give Beth and her team a shout!
