If you keep a piece of furniture or article of clothing around long enough it may just come back into style, transitioning from old junk to a vintage treasure.
Websites are not homes or wardrobes. Having a sad-looking and outdated website says many things about you and none of them are good.
Dated Looks Say You Don’t Keep Up With the Trends
Having a site that looks dated is more than an aesthetic issue; it shows your potential clients that you do not invest the resources necessary to stay on top of the latest trends. If you don’t pay attention to lawyer marketing trends, your clients may infer that you also don’t stay on top of the latest legal trends, sowing doubts about your ability to resolve their legal issues.
A Clunky Interface Says You Don’t Care About Client Convenience
If your website is hard to navigate or is not mobile-responsive, it tells your potential clients that their convenience and comfort is not important to you. The last thing a stressed out person wants to do is deal with an unintuitive website as they seek help for their legal issues. Mobile responsiveness is a must-have, as nearly 60% of web users access websites from a mobile device.
