A redesign is a big spend, and it isn't always the right one. Plenty of sites need sharper copy and one better page, not a rebuild. Others have problems that no amount of patching will fix. These ten questions help you tell which situation you're in.

How it works

Answer for your current website. Yes means the problem applies to you. Pick Not sure if you can't tell, which usually means nobody is measuring it. Your answers stay in your browser.

  1. 1. Has what you sell, or who you sell to, changed since the site was built?
  2. 2. Do visitors arrive but rarely get in touch or buy?
  3. 3. Is the site awkward to use on a phone?
  4. 4. Does it look dated next to your competitors?
  5. 5. Do simple text or image changes need a developer?
  6. 6. Is it still slow after the basic speed fixes?
  7. 7. Is the platform, theme or a key plugin no longer supported?
  8. 8. Is tracking missing or broken, so you can't tell which pages work?
  9. 9. Do you hesitate to send prospects to your website?
  10. 10. Have pages been bolted on over the years until the navigation no longer makes sense?

Why the answer isn't always "redesign"

A new design fixes how a site looks and how it's built. It doesn't fix an unclear offer, a weak call to action or missing tracking on its own. If most of your flags are about leads and messaging rather than the platform, start with the message and one high-stakes page, and measure the result. If your flags are about the platform itself (unsupported software, pages you can't edit, a structure that no longer fits), patching tends to cost more over time than rebuilding.
