Website Redesign Dangers

Website redesign of an existing / successful website is fraught with potential pitfalls. There are VERY important considerations to take into account. You want to make things better – and the last thing you want to do in a web site redesign process is;

  • Destroy your search engine rankings
  • Forcibly de-index every page of your site from every search engine
  • Generate mass 404 page not found errors
  • Break every bookmarked link from your loyal visitors
  • Destroy internal cross-linking by using JavaScript or Flash menus

Yet in many cases this is EXACTLY what happens! All of the things that once worked are often discarded. Changing the design often means wholesale changes to many elements, such as;

  • Page file names are changed
  • Image file names are changes
  • Titles, Descriptions and Keyword meta-tags are changed
  • Headings and paragraph content are amended

Business Rebranding

This is another aspect to the website redesign minefield… When you engage a business marketing company to “rebrand” your corporate entity, many things are going to change…Sometimes, they want you to do drastic things, like change your Domain Name! As well as al the above risk factors, you’re also at risk of having your Google Love reset to zero…

  • A new domain gets 6-8 months in the Google sandbox
  • A new domain looses all previous incoming Link Juice
