How important are online reviews?

Could having no reviews be as bad as having negative reviews?
Can reviews really make or break a sale?
Design Web Perth believes that referrals and reviews are crucial and something your business should be actively seeking. With 92% of people reading reviews before buying, the statistics speak for themselves.
Online reviews provide social proof, brand credibility and they give you an insight into the opinions of your customers. They also assist in your visibility on search engines. This is because each review increases your authority and relevance and therefore you have a better chance of being ranked higher.
Testimonials or a portfolio can also be useful in reassuring customers, have a look how we incorporate ‘our work’ into our website, this gives our Perth web design customers an idea of the quality of work we produce and shows who we have worked with.
Like many, the web design Perth industry is extremely competitive, so publicly presenting your client base is a great way to showcase your credibility and make your mark.
Something else to consider when looking into the importance of reviews, is that no reviews at all can have a negative impact. When a consumer searches you and finds no information, it automatically distrusts them and they are less likely to buy. It could also tell them that you are a new business, but most buyers aren’t interested in being the guinea pig – so they’ll go somewhere else.
Ask Design Web Perth more about our opinion on online reviews by emailing us at admin@designwebperth.com.au or give us a call on (08) 6424 8643.
Providing outstanding service and having great relationships with your customers, won’t necessarily guarantee you online reviews. You’re going to need to encourage it. Contact usnow and we can have a chat about how to integrate reviews into your Design Web Perth website.
We’ll leave you with a couple of tips to consider
  1. Make it possible, have an easy call-to-action feature for customers to leave a review
  2. Make it mobile friendly
  3. Just ask! Don’t be afraid to ask your customers for an online review
  4. Make sure to follow up and thank them once they’ve left a review
  5. Reward your customers. Maybe incentivize if possible, make it a competition or offer a discount
  6. Reply to the reviews

Western Australia is prone to earthquakes and therefore earthquake performance requirements within the NCC should be considered.

https://www.greenstartconsulting.com.au/western-australia-is-prone-to-earthquakes-and-therefore-earthquake-performance-requirements-within-the-ncc-should-be-considered/ The Building Commission recently released a notice to  Building Surveyors  and other industry professions to remind the industry that Western Australia is prone to earthquakes and therefore earthquake performance requirements within the NCC should be considered. AS1170.4 is the acceptable construction manual that provides a deemed-to-satisfy solution with regards to structural design and earthquake actions. ABCB have also released guidance to the standard “Design of non-structural building elements for earthquake forces”. All of which are to be considered by a  building surveyor  before certification. Our building surveyors have reviewed both publications and would also like to bring to our subscribers’ attention that this impacts on the below non-structural components; Walls that are not par...

The introduction of NCC 2019

The ABCB have recently released a preview, and finished information seminars for building surveyors relating to the introduction of NCC 2019. Three years have passed since the last edition of the BCA, which has brought some significant changes to the look and content of all volumes of the Building Code. Changes to how energy efficiency can be assessed and verification method for building in bushfire prone areas are two changes our building surveyors have commented will have an impact on your next project. Building surveyors and Certifiers are still permitted to certify buildings to the 2016 edition of the code as it is still in effect until 30 th  April 2020, however, it may be worth contacting one of our building surveyors today to discuss changes further. If you would like any further information or would like advice from one of our building surveyors on another project please contact our office on 6114 9356 or  admin@greenstartconsulting.com.au For a copy of the BCA ...

Misconceptions about Web Designers

There are many misconceptions about web designers that we thought we would take a moment to address them. 1.        Web Design is easy & anyone can do it Sure, websites can look effortless and simple but each button and feature takes time and effort in decision-making, as well as analysing and a lot of trial and error. There is a lot of work that goes into a website, ensuring it is achieving its business purposes while still having an effective design. 2.        The site is done, so you don’t need us anymore This is the most common misconception that we hear about and one that concerns us the most. Once a website is up and running, it does not mean the work is done. Websites are the most effective when they are the most relevant, therefore frequent updates to your content and technology is crucial. As well as frequent backups, to ensure that your site is secure. This is why Design Web Perth offers a monthly fee ...
