3 examples of modern websites
Modern websites are no longer just a design trend. What sets them apart from other websites is their timeless beauty. The average website lifespan is said to be three years before it requires upgrades. We strive for our modern websites to carry an organization for 6-8 years before an update in the design is needed. As long as you keep your platform up to date and create new and engaging content, the longevity of your website can be extended.  Working with a designer that offers a CMS that puts updates in your control is important.  This gives you as a website owner full flexibility in keeping your website performing and looking great.

Here are 10 examples of  top modern websites:
