Top Benefits of a Custom Built Website

Philip Ellis • February 16, 2022

Today, you’ll see a lot of web development companies or platforms claiming to offer websites that can be up in a few hours and for a very low price. 


Before you get swayed, take some time to think about what you need from your website and ask yourself if you think you’d get all those from a website built in just a few hours. The answer, of course, is no. 


To get the results you want from a website, you need to custom-build it. If you’re still on the fence about getting a custom website design, Get Round House, a trusted web design and digital marketing agency in Austin, shares some of its benefits that should be enough to convince you: 


You Get a Unique Design


One of the main benefits of getting a custom website design is getting a unique design. Most of the professionally designed websites have practically the same elements and structure. With a custom website design, you get something unique and different, depending on your preferences. 


The Pages and the Layout Are SEO-Friendly


You can get a template that’s specifically designed to be SEO-friendly. But with a template, you can’t be sure that it can do the trick for your website. With a custom design, you have control of the structure and layout that can help your website be search engine friendly.

If you get a pre-built website, you’re pretty much stuck with it. But if you get a custom website design, you can be sure that you can make changes to it anytime you want. This is a great benefit because you can be sure that your website will last a long time. Even if you change what your business is about, you can be sure that your website is flexible enough to accommodate that. 


You Can Make It Mobile-Friendly


Mobile-friendliness is a big deal in the web development industry these days. It’s because more people are using mobile devices to browse the web.

It’s Secure


A custom website design is better in terms of security than a template. This is because you won’t be using a pre-built platform or a pre-built system. You’ll be using something that’s made just for your website. In most cases, the security features of a template are limited. With a custom design, you can ensure that the security features are enough to make your site secure.

Google is rolling out an automated lead crediting system for its Local Services Ads, fundamentally changing how businesses handle unqualified leads. This update, gradually rolling out through August, promises to streamline the lead management process and potentially increase overall credits for advertisers. Key Changes in the GLSA Platform: Automatic Lead Crediting: Google will now automatically identify and credit accounts for low-quality leads, eliminating the need for manual dispute submissions. Increased Overall Credits: While credits for "job type not serviced" and "geo not serviced" leads will be discontinued, Google assures advertisers they'll receive more credits overall through this automated system. Lead Feedback Survey: Advertisers can still provide feedback on individual leads through a new Lead Feedback Survey in their lead inbox, helping Google improve lead quality and occasionally leading to additional credits. What This Means for Your Business: This update simplifies the lead crediting process, potentially saving time and effort for businesses. However, it's crucial to remain vigilant in monitoring your GLSA performance to ensure you're receiving appropriate credits. Here's how we're adapting our strategies: Strategic Feedback Submission: We'll leverage the new Lead Feedback Survey to report any leads that should be credited but weren't caught by Google's automated system. Ongoing Optimization: We'll continue to fine-tune your GLSA campaigns to maximize quality leads and minimize unqualified ones. While Google's update promises a more efficient system, active management of your GLSA campaigns remains crucial. Our team at Roundhouse Digital Marketing is ready to help you adapt to these changes and maximize your return on investment in Google Local Services Ads. Looking for more qualified calls? Reach out to us today and discover how we can help your business thrive.

Let's chat about small business SEO in Taylor, TX! I've been doing this for a while now, and let me tell you, it's a whole different ballgame here in our little slice of Williamson County. So picture this: I'm sitting in Good Strangers coffee shop on Main Street, sipping on some cold brew, when I overhear a local business owner talking about how his business isn't showing up on Google. I think, "Dang, another victim of the Taylor SEO struggle." It's like our own little Bermuda Triangle for search results sometimes! Local SEO Challenges in Taylor Look, Taylor isn't Austin or Round Rock. We've got our own quirks when it comes to getting found online: Small pond, big fish: With only about 18,000 folks in town, standing out can be tough Limited search volume: Not as many people searching for local businesses online Tight-knit community: Word-of-mouth still rules, but we gotta get with the times You may be thinking, "I don't need a fancy website; everyone knows me!" But here's the thing - new folks are moving in all the time, and they're using their phones to find places. If you're not showing up, you're missing out! Taylor-Specific SEO Tips Get listed on Google My Business (duh, but seriously!) Use "Taylor, TX" in your keywords - don't assume Google knows where you are Snag some local backlinks - chamber of commerce , local newspapers , etc. Add schema markup for your address and phone number.
