You\u2019ve invested in a website, it\u2019s live\u2026 and it barely gets any visits or enquiries. It\u2019s a very common situation, and it can almost always be fixed. The important thing is to find the real cause<\/strong> before spending more money on ads or redesigns.<\/p>\n

Here are the most common reasons a website gets no traffic, ordered from most serious to least obvious, and what to do about each one.<\/p>\n

1. Your site has technical errors that Google sees and you don\u2019t<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s more common than you\u2019d think: the home page looks fine, but other pages return errors, the sitemap won\u2019t load or the server has run out of space. If your site only works thanks to a cached copy, you may see it fine while Google runs into errors.<\/p>\n

What to do:<\/strong> check your site in Google Search Console, look at the indexed pages report and manually open your key pages, the sitemap and the robots.txt file. If anything fails, that\u2019s the first thing to fix.<\/p>\n

2. Google doesn\u2019t know your site exists<\/h2>\n

A new site, or one that has never been added to Google Search Console, can take a long time to show up in results.<\/p>\n

What to do:<\/strong> verify your domain in Search Console, submit the sitemap and request indexing of your main pages.<\/p>\n

3. There\u2019s no content that answers what people search for<\/h2>\n

A site with five pages about \u201cus\u201d and \u201cour services\u201d has very few chances of appearing on Google. People search for solutions to specific problems: \u201chow much does\u2026\u201d, \u201chow to automate\u2026\u201d, \u201cwhat is\u2026\u201d.<\/p>\n

What to do:<\/strong> start a blog with articles that answer your customers\u2019 real questions. Every good article is a new way into your website.<\/p>\n

4. Your site is slow<\/h2>\n

If it takes too long to load, especially on mobile, visitors leave and Google takes note. The usual culprits are huge images, too many plugins, heavy sliders and underpowered hosting.<\/p>\n

What to do:<\/strong> measure your speed with PageSpeed Insights, optimise images, remove what adds nothing and use a well-configured cache.<\/p>\n

5. Weak titles and descriptions<\/h2>\n

The title and description shown on Google are your shop window. If they\u2019re generic or repeated, nobody clicks even if you show up.<\/p>\n

What to do:<\/strong> write a clear title for each page with its main keyword, and a description that makes people want to click.<\/p>\n

6. Your site isn\u2019t built for mobile<\/h2>\n

Most visits come from mobile, and Google mainly evaluates the mobile version of your site.<\/p>\n

What to do:<\/strong> browse your site on your phone as if you were a customer: is it easy to read? Are the buttons easy to tap? Does the form work?<\/p>\n

7. Nobody links to your site<\/h2>\n

Links from other websites are a trust signal for Google. A site with no external links has a harder time.<\/p>\n

What to do:<\/strong> list your business on Google Business Profile and in directories for your sector, partner with other companies and publish useful content others will want to cite.<\/p>\n

8. Visitors arrive, but don\u2019t convert<\/h2>\n

Sometimes the problem isn\u2019t traffic but enquiries: the site doesn\u2019t clearly explain what you offer, doesn\u2019t build trust or doesn\u2019t make it easy to get in touch.<\/p>\n

What to do:<\/strong> make it clear on your home page what you do and who for, add visible calls to action and simplify your contact form.<\/p>\n
