The whole point in having a website is so potential and existing customers can find information about your business and even purchase your goods and services online. If they struggle to find your website, they’re more likely to go to a business with a better online presence. A study by Backlinko shows that 75.1% of clicks go to the top three organic* results. This means, the higher you rank in Google, the more likely your website will be visited which opens you up to more business.
However, obtaining a higher ranking may not be as easy as it once was as Google are changing their ranking algorithm (we know, more jargon, sorry!). One of the main focuses is on the speed of your website. If your website is unresponsive, it will be ranked lower than those faster websites.
