Your website is more than a digital storefront—it’s your brand’s first impression, your hardest-working salesperson, and often the deciding factor in whether customers choose you or your competitors. Yet many businesses don’t realize their website could actually be costing them opportunities.
At It Stix Signs & Graphics Inc., we specialize in designing websites that not only look great but also perform at the highest level. In this post, we’ll explore five red flags that may be holding your website back—and how to fix them.
According to Google, 53% of mobile users abandon a site if it takes more than three seconds to load (Think with Google). A sluggish website doesn’t just frustrate visitors—it sends a signal that your business might not be modern or efficient.
Our Solution: At It Stix, we optimize image sizes, leverage fast hosting, and apply smart caching tools to keep websites running smoothly.
Over 60% of global web traffic comes from mobile devices (Statista). If your site forces visitors to pinch, zoom, or scroll awkwardly, they’ll leave quickly.
Our Solution: We design mobile-first websites that adapt perfectly to every screen size—whether your customers are on a phone, tablet, or desktop.
75% of users judge a company’s credibility by its website design (Stanford Web Credibility Project). If your site looks like it hasn’t been updated in years, customers may assume your services are outdated too.
Our Solution: We refresh designs with modern layouts, updated branding, and intuitive navigation—keeping your digital presence as professional as your business.
Confusing menus, broken links, or buried contact info are deal-breakers. In fact, 88% of online shoppers are less likely to return after a bad experience (Sweor).
Our Solution: We build sites with clear navigation, simple pathways, and strong calls-to-action so your customers can find what they need quickly.
A beautiful website is useless if no one can find it. 68% of online experiences begin with a search engine. If your site isn’t optimized, you’re invisible to potential customers.
Our Solution: Every site we design is SEO-optimized from the start, with properly structured content, meta data, and local search enhancements.
Your website isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about credibility, visibility, and results. A professional, modern, and optimized website shows your audience that you take your business seriously and care about their experience.
At It Stix Signs & Graphics Inc., we build websites that don’t just look good—they work hard for your business. Whether you need a refresh, a full rebuild, or SEO strategy, our team is here to help you grow.
