All things you do on the web should lead back to here. Your website has a lot of heavy lifting to do, especially the homepage.<\/p>\n<p>The visitors to your site are made up of potential users of your product or service. Let people know why your website is worth visiting or why it&#8217;s not.<\/p>\n<h3>What I&#8217;m looking for on your homepage&#8230;<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Does the homepage drip just enough detail to warrant a clickthrough into the site?<\/li>\n<li>Does your homepage educate your visitor in what you do, where you do it, and how to reach you?<\/li>\n<li>Do visitors feel safe on your site?
