Website Mistake #5 – Building Without A Social Media Strategy

Here’s an excerpt from our white paper “10 Costly Website Mistakes (And How to Avoid Them):

A website is just one component of an effective online communications strategy.

This will impact everything from home page design to the site’s navigation.

Just as with SEO strategy, your social media strategy will help dictate your site structure, placement of content, length of copy, and the call to action.
