What do people expect to find when they come to your website? Does your page meet their expectations? Meeting expectations is not always easy. But taking your customer’s expectations into consideration will improve your chances for success.
The best way to meet people’s expectations is to be sure there are no surprises when they get to your site. People have expectations about websites and they don’t like surprises.

They expect to see beautifully remodeled homes.
