Website Are Like A High Maintenance Girlfriend

This is another post that originated on the old static website and it is I believe with recycling and updating. I have recently suggested that successful websites are like a high maintenance girlfriend. My business partner edited to read mate or friend. Now, I’m going with the original concept.  From my perspective this is so true. A high maintenance woman or man demands a lot of attention, and especially attention to detail. A website that acquires high search engine rankings and traffic requires similar attention. These sites need lots of it to continue to stay productive and to rank highly.

A high maintenance woman or man requires daily attention to maintain a successful and peaceful relationship. If you are willing to pay the price a relationship with a high maintenance person can be very rewarding and seldom is it dull.

A successful website is no different. It demands your time and effort that goes way beyond checking emails or traffic stats. The point here is that if you want a successful relationship with your website you have to be prepared to pay the price of your time, money, or both.

Keeping your visitors happy is extremely important. You need to make sure your site is user friendly. Many a potential customer will never reach your website because of slow loading pages. You have about two seconds to accomplish loading. I call it the Google effect. Web surfers are so used to Google providing search results instantly. They then expect this quickness from all websites all the time. We have all experienced this. You do your Google search and you see a promising website. You then click onto that link and wait and wait some more. Then you simply give up and try another site. I wish I had a dollar for every slow loading site that I abandoned. I could then afford to get into the game of Cash for clunkers.

The problem isn’t limited to small business websites that may have been home built. They actually often load very quickly because they don’t have many people visiting at the same time or they aren’t loaded with a lot of graphics. Retail e-commerce sites are notoriously slow loading for a variety of reasons. There are literally billions of dollars lost annually due to slow loading pages.

The more web savvy your visitor the quicker they leave. Imagine if your website is slow loading for a cable connection, and then imagine how slow the process is for DSL, dial-up service, or for someone using a notebook or a Wi-Fi connection.

Just like a high maintenance relationship where detail is important, detail is important if you want a successful productive relationship. When is the last time you checked to see if your contact form is still working. When did you last check to make sure that all of your links are working?

Are you properly maintaining your website?

  • This is absolutely right! But if you just learn some good techniques on how to “tame” it (the site, I mean, not the girlfriend), then, I will really work for you.

  • Gold Tester says:

    I agree, having a website is also like a test of gold. A well-maintained site means it gives value to its readers. Trying to update on whatever needs to make it look gold and of course functional. Checking is always done regularly same as you do with your girlfriend.

    Very true. Like your girlfriend you should spend some money, time and effort on it. Then, like girlfriend it’ll give you something back, might be achievement, reputation or money. The best about website, unlike your girlfriend it’ll never cheat on you. Might be the best reciprocal relationship out there! lol

    Just post is about leaving comments on Facebook and the fall-out from a well intentioned comment. Somethings need to be private even on Facebook.

    This post is about the passing of an old friend, but don't despair this friend is not human or a pet. No I am referring to a website here and not an actual friend, but the experience was still sad for me.
