    Would you consider creating a UA-cam video on the websites of those that created their websites based on your tutorials? You could then ask people to comment on what could be improved. Then you will give us your input. I redesigned my site based on watching your videos. I'm still fixing a few issues.

    Hi Wes! Your videos are so helpful, thank you! Just wondering what your advice would be on using a full hero design with a hamburger pop up menu navigation over the standard sticky navigation? My assumption is that it would be easier with the standard but I see alot Hamburger menu websites!

    • @WesMcDowellInc
      @WesMcDowellInc  Рік тому

      Hey Candace! I think a hamburger's a fine place to put your "extra" pages that don't lead to a conversion, but I'd always put your top 4-5 pages out on display. Obv I'm talking desktop, pretty much everything will be under that icon on mobile. Cheers!

    Wes, what are your thoughts on having both a "schedule call" main conversion button and a chatbox? Does the ease of asking a quick question in the chat box reduce the number of bookings?

    • @WesMcDowellInc
      @WesMcDowellInc  10 місяців тому +1

      No, I actually like a chat feature bc most people are willing to use one way before they're willing to call you or email you. SO its good for some initial engagement. Cheers!

    I just found you and subscribed and signed up for the free masterclass. I am in the works of creating my own copywriting business and am currently helping 3 small businesses write content for their websites. I have written web content in the past (that are no longer live). However, your ideas and suggestions breathe in "fresh and leveling up"! Thank you! I have a question for you. You mentioned writing the home page like no others exist and putting "second hand" information at the footer like "team bios" or "history", etc. What is your advice/opinion on drop down menus when you click on the navigation bar for a page (say, the About page, and there's a down down menu with team bios and/or history)? Is that still viable, or a website no-no from the past?

    I just tested your personal website through Google PageSpeed. Performance scored a 26 for mobile and 56 for desktop. Probably because you built your page with Elementor and have a bunch of unnecessary JavaScript.
    Doesn't this hurt SEO and conversion if the website doesn't load fast? Especially for mobile (which scored a 26) since a majority of web traffic is on mobile devices. I'm guessing all the bloated code that comes with elementor makes it harder for web crawlers to analyze and index the web pages.
    This impacts UX as well. Like if a user is browsing through web pages and something takes a while to load, they lose their patience (probably because our attention spans are so squirrelly now thanks to the internet) so we only have a split second to grab their attention with the "above the fold" content - but if the page loads slowly... then you kinda already lost them, right?

    • @MBAinternetmktg

      Do you think the new Elementor is better?

    • @WesMcDowellInc
      @WesMcDowellInc  Рік тому +2

      It popped right up for me! Honestly I worry a lot less about those scores than how fast the top section loads up. AS long as it loads fast before people have a chance to scroll down to the rest, you're good.

      ​@@WesMcDowellInc Did you empty the cache before loading the web page?
      If you're revisiting a site that's already been cached by your browser then it'll load faster because it stores all the web resources into your local storage. If you empty the cache and try reloading the page you'll get a better insight into what the actual user experience is like for first time visitors.

      @@WesMcDowellInc watched your master class vid last night. Considering the program. I already have a tech team that can build for me but my gut says to make sure they build it correctly by learning the tips/tricks in the program. Question, do you have a link to set up a consultation to go over the website after it’s built? Evaluation if you will. I don’t see myself building this myself with Elementor. Don’t have time.
