\"Pour — Pour Yourself a Better Coffee Website<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
After visiting well over 2000 Coffee websites to create our Coffee Roaster List<\/a>, I decided to post 10 Ideas to Pour Yourself a Better Coffee Website.<\/p>\n
Consider this – If YOU visited your own website (without knowing it was your website) would YOU buy from it? Do you consider contact information Important? Do you investigate legitimacy of a business before giving your credit card information? Do you shop for product and\/or website reviews before buying? Do you judge a business on the design and accuracy of information of it’s website? Read on….<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Get an Appropriate Domain Name \u21e7<\/a><\/h4>\n
To most of us choosing an appropriate domain name for our coffee website is a given, find a domain name that is descriptive of your website. If your name is Qwerty and you sell Coffee, but “QwertysCoffee.com” is not available, then you may have to settle for “Qwertys.coffee” (both were available at the time of this post). Think twice before settling for something like Qwertysbeverages.com – unless your goal is to sell wine, beer, coffee and soda.<\/p>\n
$\"domain$
What domain suffix to use?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Your domain name should be descriptive of what your website is about, if you sell Coffee, then “coffee” or a synomyn for Coffee (i.e. Java, Joe, etc.) in your domain name would be ideal. If in doubt about choosing your domain name, ask trustworthy family and friends for opinions – sometimes things that might be clear to you, are not be clear to the millions of multi-ethnic internet coffee customers. Local ideology may impede your business growth on the internet.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Find a Reputable Host Server & Hosting Plan \u21e7<\/a><\/h4>\n
Finding a reputable server hosting company for your Coffee website might take a little time – research with the internet and other website owners can save frustration later. Do your homework on this topic, check the average website down times and page load speeds on customer reviews. Also, check what others have complained about at the Better Business Bureau<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Many server hosting companies hit you with many options that can increase costs needlessly. Choose a website hosting plan suited to your website and expected traffic – you can always upgrade as your traffic increases. Chances are your website is not going to be inundated with web traffic unless you have wildly unique popular products – with almost 2000 coffee roaster websites in the U.S. alone, that is not a likely scenario.<\/p>\n
Many companies offer new customers a great deals to enlist you, then neglect you and increase rates – loyal customers should be appreciated. Some business practice beliefs are that once you install your website(s), it is too much work to move to a new hosting company. However, it is not, if your website is relatively small (dependent on the data it contains), even WordPress sites can be moved easily with WordPress migration plugins<\/a> like Duplicator and others.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Design Your Website Around Your Objective \u21e7<\/a><\/h4>\n
First, ensure your website design is responsive <\/a> and mobile friendly. Google and others search engines will lower website rankings in searches if the site in not mobile friendly. Check to see if your website is mobile friendly on Google’s Website Mobile Friendly Test page<\/a> or other mobile friendly analysis page.<\/p>\n
Most websites have a primary goal or objective – in this case Sell Coffee – there may be a secondary goal, such as charitable community service, but without selling coffee the second goal may not be feasible. So design tour website with your primary goal in mind. Build your website on paper first, decide how many pages and what info and images each page will contain. Flowchart or map your website, it’s easier to make changes on paper than online. Use Office or Open Office<\/a> (a free Office alternative) to check Grammar and spelling if your HTML editor does not have these options.<\/p>\n
During my review of the thousands of coffee roaster websites, I was amazed how difficult it was to find where to buy or shop coffee for coffee on some websites. The most important point of this post would be if you sell Coffee then make it “obvious” where to buy or shop for that Coffee as visitors may spend only a few seconds on your website. That’s why car dealers will make every effort to keep you on their sales lot – while you are there, they can make a sale – once you leave, you are probably not going to buy a car. Website design should practice the same methodology – to keep you there to sway you into a purchase.<\/p>\n
Make the Menu clear, direct and very visible – don’t let it get lost in background colors- check all screen sizes.<\/p>\n
