A slow website that did not reflect the firm’s technical expertise
Consultancy websites are often built on a content management system weighed down by plugins, and slow to show their main content on mobile. The design does not reflect the firm’s specialism or let it present projects in the detail its clients expect.
Over the years the site also builds up a large number of URLs with traffic and backlinks, so any change to its structure carries a real risk of losing rankings.
