Window Works’ homepage looked like this:

Here is what’s wrong with this picture:

Page 13: 3 Home Improvement Websites Beautifully Remodeled for Success

Too  much  

white  space  

+

Too  little  

branding  

=

CONFUSION.

Tons  of  copy...

Too  much  to  

throw  at  

visitors  right  

away.

Visitors  

couldn’t  click  

these  services  

to  learn  more.

A  call-­‐to-­‐

action  is  

supposed  to  

stand  out,  not  

blend  in.

Window Works’ homepage looks like this:

Window Works’ homepage looks like this:

As you can see, we’ve made some improvements...

Page 17: 3 Home Improvement Websites Beautifully Remodeled for Success

Clear,  

well-­‐positioned  

branding.

The  right  amount  of  

concise  and  

compelling  copy.  

A  call-­‐t0-­‐action  that  

commands  attention  

as  well  as  Live  Chat  to  

secure  more  leads.

A  clickable  main  navigation  as  well  as  

beautiful  images  that  scroll  to  keep  

visitors  interested  and  engaged.

Window Works’ website is also in

Responsive Design:

device in the world.

HomeWerks’ homepage looked like this:

Here’s what went wrong:

Page 24: 3 Home Improvement Websites Beautifully Remodeled for Success

Too  much  

small,  hard-­‐

to-­‐read  copy...  

again.

Talk  about  an  

unappealing,  

hard-­‐to-­‐see  quote  

form.  If  only  it  

generated  leads  as  

well  as  it  blended  

in  with  the  GREY  

background.

Way  to  many  

items  in  the  main  

navigation  

(decision  

paralysis  is  a  

serious  

conversion  

killer).

It’s  hard  to  make  

an  impression  

when  your  

pictures  are  this  

small.

HomeWerks’ homepage looks like this:

Much better. Here’s why:

Page 28: 3 Home Improvement Websites Beautifully Remodeled for Success

Larger,  more  

appealing  

pictures  that  

come  with  

copy  (they  

also  rotate).

A  quote  form  

that’s  clear,  

visible,  and  

asks  questions,  

which  engages  

visitors.

A  call-­‐to-­‐action  

button  that  is  very  

hard  to  miss,  

thanks  to  it’s  

unique  color.

A  much  more  

manageable  

navigation  

with  fewer  

items.

Credibility.

PowerHouse Green’s homepage looked like this:

This is where it fell short:

Page 34: 3 Home Improvement Websites Beautifully Remodeled for Success

Small  text  

galore!

The  color  of  this  

call-­‐to-­‐action  

matches  the  site’s  

color  scheme.  How  

is  it  supposed  to  

stand  out?

This  CTA  blends  

right  in!

X

A  banner  that  

doesn’t  

rotate,  

doesn’t  

engage.

PowerHouse Green’s homepage looks like this:

A BIG step up, because of:

Page 38: 3 Home Improvement Websites Beautifully Remodeled for Success

You  can  

actually  

make  out  

the  call-­‐to-­‐

action.

Beautiful,  

rotating  

images  

that  

captivate  

and  

intrigue  

visitors.

Optional  

appointment  

setting  (which  

people  love).

Clear,  concise,  

and  compelling  

copy  (just  like  it  

ought  to  be).
