Don’t Ignore User Experience

Neglecting user experience (UX) can result in higher bounce rates and lower engagement. Cater to your most loyal customers, optimizing for conversions based on their preferences and needs. 

 A lack of prominent CTAs can leave visitors unsure about how to proceed. Ensure CTAs stand out with contrasting colors, compelling copy, and strategic placement.
