A website review is a way to measure how your website is doing against certain parameters. It allows you to make informed decisions about what to change (or not to!) and is a great tool to help clean up and reorganize your website.
A review of your site can:
Improve SEO (search engine optimization)
Help get targeted traffic to your site
Ensure your site is as accessible as possible
Make your website easier for visitors to navigate
Get things organized and make it easier to work with your content
Ensure your website is fulfilling its purpose
This is also a great step to take when it comes to migrating your site to CuTheme. This will mean you’re not carrying over unnecessary or confusing content, and will help you set up your site in the new theme in a way that will make sense to both you and users of your webpage.
