A bad website doesn’t always have to be rebuilt from scratch. Sometimes leads prevent you from receiving incomprehensible texts, missing service pages or broken forms. These problems can be solved point-by-point. But it happens that the site is assembled in such a way that each change requires workarounds.

Which is worth checking first

See if the visitor can quickly find their service, see examples of work and submit a request. Check the mobile version, work forms and the ability to add sections without reworking the entire project. Then evaluate the technical part: who owns the accesses, whether it is possible to update the system and which pages are already getting traffic from search.

When it's finished

The structure as a whole fits, and interfere with individual pages, texts, design or inconvenient directory. Then make a list of edits, determine the priority and compare costs with the development of a new site.

When a new project is best

The company has changed services and audience, the platform does not support the necessary functions or fixes are comparable in scope to a new project. If old pages are already visible in the search, you will need to save important addresses or configure redirects when migrating.

Send a “post-effect” link and describe which leads you want to receive. We will understand what can be saved and what really needs to be changed. Service: audit and revision of the site.
