There are lots of great ways to keep your site visitors engaged AND returning. Google provides a great example of this with their daily animations. Today, on Love (Valentine's) Day, visitors can click on a cute short animation where one mouse give another a flower, the other sneezes and they both fall onto a Google logo. It's short, it's sweet, and it's something that visitors look for. Now we're not saying you need to put in the same effort as Google and have a daily animation, but a weekly or even a monthly feature can be huge in encouraging your visitors to return.
These small features can be excellent for drawing user attention to things like sales, promotions or new information and they work well for cross posting to social media and other advertising platforms. There are tons of simple apps and sites you can visit for little to no cost that can help you create animations or videos with little to no experience in media creation.
If that still falls out of your comfort zone, the web designers at Concept Computers can help you out AND a regular post can be easily integrated into your monthly maintenance package.
