Just about every week, I come across someone who asks what I do for a living. When I tell them I help pet businesses (marketing to pet owners or veterinarians, etc.) improve their website content and results, suddenly they get very animated.
They say things like, “I wish I could find a pet product or pet website that…” and I’ll say, “Have you looked online?” They’ll say yes – but the websites they found didn’t help them. They’ll mention how the search results in Google didn’t point them in the right direction, or how certain websites were too busy or full of Flash videos and stuff that got in the way of finding what the person needs. In other words, the process is just plain confusing.
This shocks me every time I hear it, because I know how hard you and other pet-related companies work to create a website that should attract the right customers, ready to buy.
Alas, many pet websites are just not working, and the owners are not sure why. Maybe this is true for you too?
