As summer draws to a close, it's time to get back to business! Make sure your website is ready to perform so you can take full advantage of opportunities this autumn and into 2026.

September's an important time for most businesses. With seasonal events on the horizon and planning for next year starting to take shape, your website is central to making the most of these opportunities. Follow our five practical tips to ensure it's ready to support your goals this season and beyond.

1. Make it Easy for Visitors

Your website should make it easy for visitors to find what they need, whether that’s services, contact details or product pages. It should work well on mobile, with clear text and easy-to-use buttons and menus. If your site feels clunky or difficult, customers may struggle and go elsewhere. Even small improvements can make a big difference.

We design websites of all kinds, from simple brochure sites to complex platforms, all built to work smoothly for our clients and their online visitors. Our Glasson Grain case study shows how we created a modern, user-friendly website that supports their digital strategy.

2. Ensure Everything Works!

Broken links, pages that don't load or forms that don’t submit can frustrate visitors and cost you sales. Test key features, especially contact forms and checkouts, to make sure everything is running smoothly.

Not sure what’s holding your site back? Request a free website healthcheck and we’ll show you what needs attention. Our Anglia Car Auctions case study shows how we delivered an easy-to-use site with advanced functionality that works seamlessly behind the scenes to support both ACA and their customers.

3. Check Branding & Content

Ensure your site reflects your latest messaging and branding. Review product pages, service information and calls-to-action and make sure logos and images are professional and current. An outdated or inconsistent site can be off-putting. If it no longer shows your business at its best, a redesign is worth considering.
