Web design in San Francisco.

“New web design sounds great,” you tell us. “But I’m not part of that 27% of companies that don’t have a website. I’m in the 73%, so what would I need a new website for?”

Good question.

And we’ll respond by asking one of our own – when was your existing website made?

That’s a biggie because, as we said at the beginning, having an outdated website can be as damaging as having no website at all:

It all comes down to trust, and 94% of people say that they don’t trust old websites with outdated designs. Now, think about what we said earlier about trust – 98% of people need to trust you at least a little bit before they’ll buy – and you see why having an old website can be such a problem.

NEWMEDIA is the problem solver.

We work with you to redesign your existing website so it’s up to date with modern design conventions. That means taking what works (such as your content) and placing it into a design that your visitors feel like they can trust.

Trust creates leads.

And from there, it’s up to you to make more sales.

Most of the traffic that lands on your websites comes from mobile devices – 58.33% of it (in the first quarter of 2023), to be specific. For context, if your site has 1,000 visitors, 583 of them are using a smartphone or tablet to browse.

Now, imagine that those 583 people see a shoddy website that isn’t optimized for the mobile experience. What do you think they’re going to do?

Yep – they leave!

Almost two-thirds of mobile users who don’t like what they see on a mobile website will bounce away, likely never to return. And if your competitors have websites that work well on mobile, you’ve just sent over half of your potential customers into their welcoming arms.

But there’s good news from these stats, too.

According to 67% of people, a site that looks great on mobile is a site from which they’re more likely to buy. The reason is obvious- you’ve put in the effort to create a site that serves their specific needs, so they trust you enough to reward you with a sale.

There’s just one problem – you don’t have the money to create a desktop and mobile version of your website.

Enter responsive web design.

The clue to what this type of web design offers is in the name – responsiveness. In other words, you get one website that’s designed in a way that ensures it responds to whatever device somebody’s using to access it. If that device is a desktop computer, they get the desktop experience. If it’s a mobile device, they see a site that’s made for the smaller screen rather than a desktop site that’s scrunched down to fit.

NEWMEDIA makes responsive websites that give your visitors the best of the desktop and mobile worlds.

Almost $8 trillion.

Those are the projected sales for e-commerce stores in 2025, so it’s no wonder that you want to create an online store to sell your products to your customers:

But what those figures don’t tell you is that building an e-commerce website isn’t like building any other sort of website. The reason – navigation.

Think about it. Even a small e-commerce store can have hundreds of products (with larger ones veering into the thousands), and all of those products need to be properly categorized and easy to find for your visitors. If they’re not, people leave. Remember the website usability stats we shared earlier – over 61% of people said they’d left a website because they couldn’t find their way around.

Usability is a massive issue in e-commerce website design, as is properly highlighting your products and providing you with a CMS that lets you upload (and delete) products from your store as needed. NEWMEDIA does it all.

A landing page is not the same thing as a business website.

Sure, they have the same components – a design, coding underpinning the design, and your company’s branding. But where a business website runs the gamut from talking about what you do to selling your product to providing the research-oriented consumer with more information, a landing page is designed to do one thing:

Sell.

And when you get them right, landing pages do a very good job of selling:

The more landing pages you have, the more leads you generate. Just making the jump to between 10 and 15 of these pages means you get 55% more leads. And yet, almost two-thirds of companies only have between one and six landing pages, assuming they have any at all.

That’s unwise, especially if you have a bunch of paid ads and social media marketing campaigns running. Context-sensitive landing pages are essential for those campaigns, and only having a handful of them means you’re often pointing visitors to the wrong sales information.

Fix that problem with NEWMEDIA – we can create as many landing pages as your business needs.

Slow websites lose customers.

That’s not us making a baseless claim – the stats back it up:

Three seconds.

That’s all the time you can afford to use for website loading before 40% of your visitors decide you’re not for them and wave bye-bye. And worst of all – you’re not getting most of those bounced visitors back. An enormous 80% of them will never give you a second chance, meaning only 20% come back to see if your site manages to get its act together.

In other words, slow loading is a website killer.

Hosting is often to blame for slow loading times, though there are other factors (tons of unoptimized imagery on the page, for instance), so NEWMEDIA focuses on hosting to solve the problem. We offer fast hosting solutions. And we also give you the support you need to ensure you’re not grappling with your hosting provider rather than running your business.

Imagine that you have a gorgeous Aston Martin sitting in your garage.

That car is your pride and joy. You spend hours waxing it, touching it up, and making it the most beautiful car that anybody could ever hope to see. But it doesn’t have an engine. And that lack of an engine means the car never leaves the confines of your garage, so nobody but you gets to see it.

That’s what can happen to your stunning new website if you’re not doing SEO to make it more prominent in the online world. And this isn’t hyperbole. The fact is that most sites never get a scrap of organic traffic from Google because they have poor SEO:

Over 1 billion websites were examined.

Almost 850 million of them get no love from Google (or other search engines).

You can’t let that happen to your San Francisco company’s website. And with NEWMEDIA, it won’t – you’re in the hands of one of the country’s leading digital marketing agencies. Once we have your website up and running, we can power up the online marketing engine to make sure plenty of people see it.
