Why your site isn't selling

Bloat costs you customers. Here's how.

  1. Cause

    Heavy themes & plugins

    Code for a hundred features you never use, loaded on every page.

  2. So

    Slow pages

    Visitors on phones give up before the page has finished loading.

  3. So

    Poorer rankings

    Google rewards fast, usable pages. Slow ones slip down the results.

  4. Result

    Fewer sales

    Fewer people find you, and fewer of those who do stay to buy.

The lean approach

Most small business sites are built on scaffolding nobody took down.

Page builders and plugin piles make a site quick to start but slow to load and fragile to update. We write only what your site needs, so it's quicker for visitors, easier for Google, and cheaper to keep running.
