Web redesign tip: show your readers what’s coming

Planning changes to your site? Give your web visitors a peek behind-the-the scenes. Use it as an opportunity to engage them in a conversation about what they want and then give them previews about what’s coming.

I check SFGate every day. They’ve been rolling out a new design of their site over the last few months. But instead of just popping up the new design, they’re doing a good job of previewing the changes and explaining WHY they’re being made.

Such an approach can improve adoption of new features and reinforces the value proposition of your site. —John Kovacevich, VP Marketing Services
