But because one part of your website is broken or needs fixing doesn’t always mean you have to invest in a total overhaul.
Website redesigns are a very disruptive process, both to the internal teams that need to manage them (often in addition to their “normal” jobs), as well as to customers who see one design and experience one day and then the next everything has changed.
