Duda templates to launch a professional website as demonstrated by MAWAZO Marketing

If your business does not have an online presence, then it is very difficult for your potential customers to take you seriously. In addition, it is not only your audience that you need to consider, but you also need search engines to take you seriously - with particular attention to Google.

There is no excuse today for your business to not be online, and with a website that looks professional and is optimized for search engines. One of the simplest and most cost-effective ways to create a website is to use online website-building solutions, such as Wix, Weebly, Squarespace, and our preferred choice, Duda.

What is Duda?

Duda is not a well-known website-builder amongst novice users, but it is a preferred solution for digital marketers and developers. It is preferred because it not only offers great interactive features, but it also allows for custom development.

Website-builders platforms are web applications that make it easy for those that do not know anything about web design and development to create and manage a website. With the use of “drag-and-drop’ functionality, almost anyone can create pages and edit content.

What are Templates?

Templates are pre-designed and formatted webpages that can be used to start building your website. Templates offer a set of features, called widgets, that would be useful for your business to promote your products and services. They are also “designed” for you so that all you need to do is customize styles to match your brand and design preferences.

Duda templates have been created for various industries so that you can use one that is more relevant to your audience and the type of information you would like to include in the website. There are many to choose from, and each of them can be customized to your specific needs.

A big advantage of using a Duda template is that the templates have been designed and developed to be responsive. This means that the page displays will respond to the size of the screen on which it is being viewed, with three main general sizes: desktop, tablet and mobile. This is important for your website audience to get the best website experience, but it is also important to Google when they decide how far up on the search results they want to show you.

What Type of Customization is Possible with Duda Templates?

When starting with a Duda template, you are able to customize your branding. This includes your logo, website colours and fonts. Though Duda comes with a long list of fonts to choose from, you are also able to upload custom fonts.

To set up your website, you are able to select page layouts that match your content and then customize content blocks as you desire. This makes it easy to create a site structure that best suits your content. The Duda Content Management System (CMS) will automatically update the main menu, or site navigation, to the pages that you create.

The Duda CMS also provides easy ways to create forms and popups, so that you can create pages, landing pages and lead generation campaigns.

More advanced features include:

Content display based on day or time, or user location
3rd party solution integration, such as email platforms, CRMs and more
Tag management, such as Google Tag Manager, OpenGraph, and more
Script management, such as Structured Data Scheme
Ecommerce, with product categorization, automatic shipping calculations, order management, coupons, and more
And the list goes on.

How Long Does it Take to Get a Duda Template Website Launched?

Many small businesses need a simple website with 5-6 pages. These usually consist of pages such as Homepage, Products, Services, About Us, and Contact Us. These are simple pages to create, manage and launch with Duda templates.

If you were to create this yourself, and do simple customization such as images, colours, fonts and content, then you could have your website live within a couple of days. However, if you would like to have your website done with some customization and use a Duda developer, your website could be launched within a week.

If your website requires a custom design, and therefore not with existing Duda templates, your website could still be developed within 2-3 weeks. This is much faster than developing in Wordpress or other similar Content Management Systems.
