We have put together some points to help determine whether your website needs to be redesigned. If you are someone who owns a website and are questioning if you should redesign your website, keep on reading to find out.
One major point that should stand out as a red flag to you is, if when visiting your site, your devices (computer, laptop, phone, etc.) are refusing to upload your web pages.

This could also tie into an outdated code. Not only is this annoying for you but it can also affect the amount of users visiting your website. Websites that take to long result in lower Google search ranking as well as loss of users.
Another factor that could affect the speed of your website is if it relies heavily on Flash.
