This statistic reveals just how important it is for all jewelry websites to maintain tiptop conditions with a site analysis.<\/p>\n<p>A site analysis is basically a check-up of all your web pages. Think of it as a routine physical for the &#8220;body&#8221; of your site. Like a medical diagnostic, the site analysis will reveal plenty of chances for you to beat out competitors in a hot market.<\/p>\n<p>How do you know when it&#8217;s time for an analysis?<\/p>\n<p>Follow these five simple signs.<\/p>\n<h2>1. You Have Never Had a Site Analysis Performed<\/h2>\n<p>From the moment you launched your jewelry site, you moved forward without looking back. However, you never evaluated whether your humble beginnings were holding up your progress.<\/p>\n<p>Think of it this way: If you didn&#8217;t go to a doctor for five years, chances would be strong that something would have changed. Wouldn&#8217;t you want to know?<\/p>\n<p>Analysis of your site will show everything from old-school coding to inappropriate keyword optimization, allowing you to fix problems.<\/p>\n<h2>2. You Are Losing Page Rank<\/h2>\n<p>At one time, you were able to rank high for certain keywords. Now, you&#8217;re floundering and can&#8217;t seem to keep up.<\/p>\n<p>This red flag shouldn&#8217;t be ignored because it means that something isn&#8217;t right. Either you haven&#8217;t kept up with search engine optimization (SEO) practices, or your site isn&#8217;t attractive to Google&#8217;s crawlers.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Your Bounce Rate Is Getting Higher and Higher<\/h2>\n<p>Have you noticed on your analytics that your bounce rate is going sky-high?<\/p>\n<p>The bounce rate is a page&#8217;s percentage of people who basically land there and immediately head elsewhere. In other words, they aren&#8217;t sticking around to find out about your <a title=\"buy ItsHot mens earrings for fashionable guys\" href=\"https:\/\/www.itshot.com\/jewelry\/earrings\/diamond\/mens\">ItsHot mens earrings<\/a> because they aren&#8217;t interested in the product.<\/p>\n<p>Your goal is to get your bounce rate to a minimum. Retail sites like jewelry websites usually have an average <a title=\"retailers can expect bounce rates of 20-40 percent\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.kissmetrics.com\/bounce-rate\/\">bounce rate of 20-40 percent<\/a>. There&#8217;s nothing wrong with going lower, though.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Your Website Keeps Crashing<\/h2>\n<p>If your jewelry website stops working on a regular basis, you have a problem with <a title=\"always monitor your site's uptime\" href=\"https:\/\/siteuptime.com\/api.php\">your site&#8217;s uptime<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve all become frustrated by crashed or non-available web pages. Why risk losing a good consumer who could become a loyal champion of your jewelry offerings?<\/p>\n<p>Instead of accepting a constantly crashing site, keep an eye on it and find out why it&#8217;s a problem through professional analysis.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Your Pages Take Forever to Load<\/h2>\n<p>Slow loading is another signal that your site needs a thorough once-over.<\/p>\n<p>Your pages might load slowly for a number of reasons, from the type of multimedia you choose to the publisher platform you rely on.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than make potential customers wait for several seconds (or longer,) determine why your pages are loading at a snail&#8217;s pace. Then, do something to make them much faster.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Get a Leg Up on the Competition<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The jewelry industry is highly lucrative, but it&#8217;s also very competitive.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than losing valuable market share online, turn to a site analysis to keep your numbers golden.<\/p>\n<p>Would you like to hear about other analysis options to boost your jewelry visitors and sales?
