How to Know When It’s Time for a Redesign
If you’re wondering whether it’s time to update your site, here are 5 signs your business needs a new website. These are issues we see all the time across South Wales — and they often hold companies back from reaching more customers.
At NC Digital, we help local businesses create modern, fast, mobile-ready websites that actually generate leads. If the points below sound familiar, you might be due for a rebuild.
“If your website hasn’t had a proper update in 3+ years, it’s likely underperforming — no matter how nice it looked when it launched.”

1. Your Website Looks Outdated
If your site still looks like it’s from 2016, people will notice — and not in a good way. Design trends change fast, and a modern layout helps build instant trust.
2. It’s Not Mobile-Friendly
Over half your traffic is coming from phones. If your site doesn’t work well on mobile, users bounce — and Google won’t rank it as high in search results.
3. Slow Load Times
If your homepage takes 5+ seconds to load, that’s a problem. A slow website loses customers before you’ve even said hello. It also affects your rankings.
4. You’re Not Showing Up on Google
If you’re not ranking for your own business name or key local services, your site may not be set up correctly for SEO. A rebuild can fix this at the core.
5. It’s Hard to Update or Add Content
Still relying on someone else to change basic text or images? You shouldn’t have to. A new site on WordPress gives you easy control without needing to code.
Why These Website Issues Hurt Your Business
A website is more than just a digital brochure — it’s your sales rep, lead generator, and credibility builder. If it’s underperforming, you are too.
How We Build Sites That Fix These Problems
We use WordPress, Elementor, Rank Math, and fast hosting. Everything’s built with speed, SEO, and mobile users in mind.
Where We Work
We serve businesses across Merthyr Tydfil, Pontypridd, Aberdare, and the wider South Wales area.
