At the end of the year, I always spend time looking through my marketing materials and make changes for the coming year. If you’ve created a site months, or even years ago, its time for you to take a second look. 
When you look at your own site, you look at it through your eyes. You know what you do. You know what you offer. But does your client? When they enter your site, can they navigate around and get exactly what they are looking for?
Take a look at these 10 common design mistakes, and take a second look at your own site.
