The 30-Day Website Improvement Plan

If your website isn’t generating leads, loading quickly, or ranking on Google, you don’t necessarily need a full redesign. Often, what you need is a structured, strategic reset.

At Ask the Egghead, we’ve seen firsthand how consistent, focused improvements can completely transform a website’s performance. That’s why we created this simple but powerful 30-Day Website Improvement Plan — designed specifically for small business owners who want measurable results.

Below is a practical roadmap you can follow starting today.

Week 1: Audit and Analyze

Before improving anything, you need clarity.

Day 1–2: Run a Speed Test
Use tools like Google PageSpeed Insights or GTmetrix. A slow website hurts SEO rankings and conversions. If your site loads in more than 3 seconds, that’s a red flag.

Day 3–4: Review Mobile Performance
Over half of website traffic comes from mobile devices. Check how your site looks and functions on smartphones. Buttons should be easy to tap, text readable, and layouts clean.

Day 5–6: Evaluate Your Messaging
Ask yourself:

  • Is your headline clear?
  • Does your homepage explain what you do in 5 seconds?
  • Is your call-to-action obvious?

Confused visitors don’t convert.

Day 7: Security Check
Ensure WordPress, plugins, and themes are updated. Confirm you have SSL enabled and daily backups running.

Week 2: Optimize for Performance

Now that you’ve identified weak spots, it’s time to improve them.

Day 8–10: Improve Website Speed

  • Compress images
  • Remove unused plugins
  • Enable caching
  • Optimize database

Speed directly impacts both search engine rankings and user experience.

Day 11–12: Clean Up Navigation
Your menu should be simple and intuitive. Too many options overwhelm visitors. Keep it focused on primary services and key pages.

Day 13–14: Strengthen Calls-to-Action
Every page should guide visitors toward a next step:

  • Schedule a consultation
  • Request a quote
  • Contact us
  • Download a guide

Make buttons bold, clear, and benefit-driven.

Week 3: Boost SEO and Visibility

If Google can’t understand your site, neither can your audience.

Day 15–16: Optimize Page Titles and Meta Descriptions
Each page should target one primary keyword. Include it naturally in the title, headings, and content.

Day 17–18: Improve Internal Linking
Link related pages together. This helps search engines crawl your site and keeps visitors engaged longer.

Day 19–20: Update Outdated Content
Refresh service pages, update statistics, and improve weak paragraphs. Fresh content signals relevance to Google.

Day 21: Add One New Blog Post
Consistent blogging improves search visibility and builds authority. Choose a topic your ideal customer is actively searching for.

Week 4: Focus on Conversions

Traffic is meaningless without action.

Day 22–23: Simplify Contact Forms
Remove unnecessary fields. The easier it is to reach you, the more leads you’ll receive.

Day 24–25: Add Trust Builders
Include:

Trust increases conversions dramatically.

Day 26–27: Improve Homepage Structure
Make sure your homepage includes:

  • Clear value proposition
  • Services overview
  • Social proof
  • Strong CTA
  • Contact information

Day 28–29: Install Tracking
Set up Google Analytics and conversion tracking. Measure form submissions, clicks, and traffic sources.

Day 30: Review Results
Compare metrics from Day 1 to Day 30:

  • Speed improvements
  • Traffic changes
  • Conversion increases
  • Bounce rate reduction

Even small improvements compound over time.
