BILLBOARDS ARE BORING AND SO IS YOUR WEBSITE

If your website is just a billboard, remember that no one gets on the highways to look at billboards.

If your website’s contents are just embedded content from other platforms and links to social media, it is a billboard.

I come to your website, and the only option is to… leave your website.

Imagine if I drove to your restaurant and it was just a billboard, with links to Google Maps, DoorDash, and your Instagram account.

It’s not just about the food when I go to a restaurant. Sometimes you strike up a rapport with the wait staff. You find something on the menu that becomes your favorite. Maybe the seating is extra nice, or the crowd on a Tuesday night is your vibe.

You don’t get any of that from a billboard. A billboard is for shouting HEY HEY HEY. DETAILS! WEBSITE ADDRESS!

Stop putting up billboards and expecting people to get excited.
