Give your Website a Job
Your website is more than just an online business card… it has a job to do.
Your website’s job is to convert visitors into customers.
That starts with knowing what action you want visitors to take once they arrive at your website, and helping them to take their next steps.
What is the primary objective of your website?
Most Businesses Focus On One of These Three Primary Objectives
They want the visitor to schedule a phone call or an appointment
They want the visitor to sign up for their email list
They want the visitor to make a direct purchase from the website
You may want to have more than one of these objectives, but there will always be one that is a primary goal.
For example, you might want to both get sign ups for your email list and have visitors book an appointment with you. Decide which of those two are of higher importance—usually this means, “what is the fastest path to a sale?”
At WebWiskee our website layouts are designed to help you accomplish your objective.
Our layouts are built using Gutenberg blocks, providing you with unparalleled flexibility and customization options. Choose the primary objective that’s best for your business goals. You can either leave the layout as-is, or easily modify and personalize the design to align with your brand and capture the attention of your target audience, creating a website that encourages conversions and drives business growth.

Build Your Email List
There are many reasons why you might choose to focus on growing your email list as your website’s primary goal.

Pair our layouts with these tips to guide your visitors where you want them to go on your website.
- Make sure each of your calls-to-action stand out from the rest of your website. This could mean a button instead of a hyperlink, an eye-drawing color, or movement.
- Use actionable language in the second-person (You vs They).
- Create a sense of urgency, such as having a limited time offer, mentioning what the visitor is missing out, etc.
- If you have multiple target audiences, you may need a different call-to-action for each one.
