Website Guides for Business Owners

This hub holds guides on the questions business owners ask most about their websites. You will find answers on web design, web development, web security, and mobile apps.

Each guide sticks to one topic and sticks to the facts that apply to your business. TygerLabs also works on SEO, AEO, and GEO for owners who want help beyond the website itself.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if my website needs a redesign?

Our guide walks through the warning signs of an outdated website and shows you what to address first. It also explains why a new look alone will not bring in leads. Fixing the issues underneath matters as much as the design on top.

What does a restaurant website need to take orders?

A restaurant website needs a text menu, your hours, a directions link, and a booking or order link, plus a tap-to-call phone number. All of these details should match what is listed on your Google profile so customers see the same information everywhere they look.

Why do my business emails end up in spam?

Missing SPF, DKIM, or DMARC records in your DNS settings can send your business emails to spam. Our guide explains what Gmail and Yahoo require from these records. It also shows you how to add the correct records to your domain.

What security steps does a small business website need?

A plain security checklist for small business websites includes regular updates, backups, multi-factor authentication, fewer admin accounts, and removing plugins you no longer use. Our guide walks through each step in detail.

Should I build a mobile app or improve my mobile website?

For most small businesses, a strong mobile website is the better starting point. An app can come later, once customers need offline use, push alerts, or device features a website cannot offer.
