Do you actually need
a website redesign?
Eight honest questions. Most agencies will tell you yes before you finish asking — we would rather tell you the truth, because a redesign you did not need is money you will resent spending.

What the redesign quiz measures
The eight questions cover the five things that actually determine whether a rebuild pays for itself: how the site performs on a phone, whether it still matches what the business sells, whether visitors can find and trust what they need, how much it costs you to maintain, and whether it produces inquiries at all. Looks are deliberately a small part of the score, because a dated site that converts is a better business asset than a beautiful one that does not.
A redesign is usually worth it when
- The site takes more than three seconds to load on a mid-range phone.
- Your services, pricing or positioning have changed and the site has not.
- Traffic is steady but inquiries are rare, so the site is losing people after they arrive.
- Updates require a developer for even small changes.
- Competitors' sites make yours look like the cheaper option when you are not.
A redesign is usually not worth it when
- The site converts well and the complaint is mainly that it looks plain.
- The real problem is one slow page, a broken form or a missing call to action.
- You have not yet measured anything, so nobody knows what is actually wrong.
- The content is the weak point. New design will not fix thin or unclear copy.
- You are about to change the business model. Design after the decision, not before.

Redesign questions
How do I know if my website needs a redesign?
If the site is slow on phones, looks dated next to competitors, no longer reflects what you sell, or produces few inquiries despite steady traffic, a redesign is probably worth it. If it is simply a bit plain but converts fine, targeted fixes are cheaper and faster. The quiz above scores exactly these factors.
How often should a business website be redesigned?
There is no fixed interval. Well-built sites last five years or more with regular content updates and maintenance. The trigger should be a business change or a measurable problem, not a calendar.
What does a website redesign cost?
Redesigns with us typically run $2,500 to $6,000 depending on how much content, functionality and structure carries over. The cost calculator gives you a range; a written quote fixes the price.
