A poor website can affect any brand's relationship with their customers no matter how established the brand may be. Low quality websites can ultimately make customers subconsciously view your brand as untrustworthy and of a low quality which can destroy your brand reputation and lose you customers.

Within the first few seconds, visitors will notice if your website is modern, if the content is relevant, if contact details are readily available, and whether or not the navigation is confusing. Users are likely to visit many different websites when making a purchase so it's crucial to incorporate some web design essentials which are listed below.
