I was just reading an article by our friends over at Hubspot called 8 Rookie Mistakes That Will Ruin Your Website Redesign, and I found myself cheering out loud. Seriously. This blog post is SO on target regarding mistakes that I’ve see people making over and over again during my last 20 years in online marketing and web development.
