Your website should work for you - not against you.

Yet many businesses don’t realise their site might be losing them customers, damaging credibility, or blocking growth.

At ManartDigital, we help businesses upgrade from “just having a website” to owning a real digital growth tool. Here are five red flags that it's time for a change:

1️⃣ It's Not Mobile-Friendly

Over half of all web traffic now comes from mobile. If your website is hard to use on a phone or looks broken on smaller screens, users will leave - fast.

2️⃣ It's Slow to Load Speed matters.

A few seconds of delay can cost you leads, sales, and Google ranking. If your site loads slowly, it’s likely costing you real revenue.

3️⃣ It Looks Outdated

Design trends evolve. If your website looks like it hasn’t been touched since 2015, your visitors might assume your business hasn't either.

4️⃣ You Can’t Update It Easily

You shouldn’t need a developer just to change a phone number or update a service. Modern content systems (like what we use with Strapi) give you control and flexibility.

5️⃣ It’s Not Helping You Grow

Your website should attract, convert, and support your business goals. If it's just sitting there, not bringing in leads or driving action - it's time to upgrade.

The Solution?

A custom, strategy-driven website built with your goals in mind — fast, responsive, SEO-ready, and built to grow with your business.

That’s exactly what we do at ManartDigital.
