This diagnostic maps to the Revenue Website Infrastructure - the six systems that separate a revenue website from a digital brochure.

Answer Yes only if it is fully true for your current website. Partial credit does not exist in customer acquisition.

System 1 of 6

Conversion Architecture

How your website moves visitors toward action

Does your homepage communicate what you do and who it's for within 5 seconds?

Do you have CTAs for multiple buyer readiness levels - not just one generic "Contact Us"?

Are pages sequenced to mirror how buyers make decisions (problem - solution - proof - action)?

Are your forms short, frictionless, and placed at natural decision points?

System 2 of 6

Authority Infrastructure

How your website establishes expertise and category ownership

Do you have 5 or more reference-grade articles - not promotional blog posts?

Do your articles link to each other in a structured topic cluster?

Is your positioning specific to a defined category or problem - not generalist?

Does your content prove expertise with depth, not just claim it with statements?

System 3 of 6

Trust Acceleration

How your website reduces buyer hesitation systematically

Do you have specific testimonials with measurable outcomes - not generic praise?

Are trust signals placed near CTAs - not isolated on a separate testimonials page?

Do you clearly explain what happens after someone contacts you, including timeline?

Is there a risk reversal mechanism - a guarantee, clear scope, or process transparency?

System 4 of 6

Search Visibility Infrastructure

How discoverable your website is to buyers searching for what you offer

Do you have a content cluster structure - multiple interlinked articles on core topics?

Are meta titles and descriptions unique and keyword-specific on every page?

Does your site load in under 3 seconds on a mobile device?

Is your content structured so AI systems can extract and cite definitions directly?

System 5 of 6

Lead Generation Systems

How your website captures and qualifies prospects before any sales conversation

Do you have more than one lead capture mechanism - not just a single contact form?

Does your contact form include qualifying questions that help identify high-intent prospects?

Is there a free resource, tool, or diagnostic that attracts buyer-intent visitors?

Do confirmation pages set clear expectations and provide a useful next step?

System 6 of 6

Buyer-Focused Messaging

How clearly your website communicates value from the buyer's perspective

Is your homepage written for the buyer - not about your company's history or credentials?

Do you name the specific problem you solve - not just your service category?

Is your differentiation explicitly stated - not left implied or assumed?

Does your site avoid vague language like "solutions", "partnerships", or "world-class service"?
