Modern Websites

The 5 things your website must be this year:

1. Mobile Responsive

How well does your website work on mobile phones?

In January this year mobile and tablet devices made up over 50% of all website hits and Google searches. Because of this, Google, Browsers and customers expect websites to be built for mobile phones as the priority.

Google want to offer the best possible experience and the most suitable websites for their customers based on the device they are using. As such, understandably Google are now:

- Warning users against visiting non mobile friendly websites
- Ranking websites lower on mobile Google searches if not Mobile Friendly

4. HTTPS (SSL)

Google and Browsers now reward encrypted websites. To encrypt your website (make your site HTTPS) you need to have an active SSL (Secure Socket Layer) Certificate.

This is more important than ever because in July 2018, Google released a version of their Chrome browser that labels any sites without an SSL certificate as 'Not Secure' to its customers.

Adding a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) service to your website will ensure that the green padlock & secure message always shows.

Not only does it enforce a user's confidence in your security, SSL also helps boost your Google Rankings and goes towards making your website GDPR Compliant.

5. GDPR Compliance

GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is a regulation from the European Union which came in to place in May 2018 and affects all UK businesses. It's designed to ensure businesses are protecting their customers information and held accountable if not.

For your website to comply with GDPR rules as of May 2018, we believe at the very least you need to:

Update/Create a Privacy Policy
Ensure you receive consent when collecting data for marketing materials
Offer an easy withdrawal process from your marketing materials
Encrypt all client data passed through your website (SSL)

All of our advice on GDPR legislation is not legal advice. This information is based on our interpretation of the GDPR ruling. For concrete legal advice, you may wish to talk to a solicitor.
