Why Outdated Websites Cost UK Businesses Leads | Fast Fixes from Fivethy

 

If you run a small business in the UK you’ve likely faced the same issue: you need something updated on your website, but the company managing it takes days (or weeks), or charges a small fortune for even minor changes.

That lag isn’t just frustrating. It’s costing you leads, damaging your SEO, and slowing your growth. 

 

Google favours websites that are fresh, active, and relevant. If your website still shows last year’s promotions, old pricing, or services you no longer offer, you’re sending the wrong signals to both search engines and potential customers.

Here’s how stale content can directly impact your business:

Many UK businesses rely on external agencies or freelancers to update their sites. While they might be skilled, they’re often overbooked—or charge steep rates for every single change.

That leads to:

And let’s face it, waiting two weeks for a blog post to go live or paying £150 to update opening hours isn’t sustainable.

At Fivethy, we believe your website should work with your business, not against it. That’s why we offer:

Need a blog live tomorrow? Want to update a product or change a banner? No problem. We handle most content updates within 24 hours.

No surprise fees or long quote processes. Our monthly plans are tailored for small businesses, giving you flexibility and control—without breaking the bank.

Every change we make is aligned with Google best practices. Whether it’s a blog post, service page, or new image, we ensure your content is structured to improve rankings and visibility.

Your website is your digital storefront. When it’s slow to update or filled with outdated content, you lose visibility, leads, and credibility.
