Hibu Reviews
The other day I got asked about a small business marketing company called Hibu. Would I recommend them using Hibu?
Here is my short Hibu Website review.
Our company Ignited Biz is a small business web design company. Reviewing another “web design” company’s’ merchandise is not always my favorite thing to do.
I am going to show you using a nonpartial website on my thoughts on how well Hibu websites are. This review is based on statistics provided by none other than Google itself.
I was NOT writing this Hibu site review to bring in business (I am crazy busy today). There’ll be NO calls to action on this page as I figure if you’re interested in my web design services, you may click on the link or give me a call.
3 Reasons to save your money:
Cost is not one of the factors I checked out. In fact no matter the cost I would never buy a website from Hibu.
Number 1 reason!
Speed – in today’s mobile society you need a fast site. With over 50% of searches coming from mobile devices people want your site to load quickly.
Here is a screen shot of a Hibu site:


I was blown away at how slow it is. As you can see Google is estimating their visitor loss on this site at 35%! The second pic shows how well it ranks in its Industry Comparison.
That is horrible first if you were even able to make a site like this to rank 35% of the people give up due to the Slow load.
Not to mention if you use their paid for traffic how much your losing. I know I have clicked on Facebook ads, Adsense ads and others that were so slow I clicked out. Slow loading sites cost small business owners $1000’s of dollars each month.
Here is a comparison of how Ignited Biz sites. This one we just built. This is what you want. We take great pride in providing top-notch small business websites.


Without a fast loading site, you shouldn’t even waste your money on a website.
#2 Reason – It’s obvious they don’t provide https to their customers. I won’t go into the long and boring explanation on https but to put it simply Google uses it now as a ranking factor and second it is to protect your potential clients. I know I don’t use any company’s site now that doesn’t have https.
#3 Their so Called SEO Service
Hibu seems to like to brag on their site, but in all honesty, I don’t see how they are helping their customers in the long run. The system seems to be more geared for the small business owner to pay for traffic. Which again a slow site has a horrible ROI for paid ads.
ROI on Slow Websites
On top of that, the many websites I reviewed from Hibu seem to have very, very generic content. A few of the sites they built have duplicate names, wrong h1’s (heading tags), multiple H1 tags; the list continues on and on. This will ruin local businesses chances of getting ranked.
This is just the three quickest things spotted in my reviewing of Hibu websites.
There are probably many more good reasons why you ought not to pay Hibu to get a site. This article is getting a bit wordy already. I promised you a short Hibu review.
I’d really like to hear from you. Even if you completely disagree with me or in case you’ve got a site you think is good — don’t hesitate to post it.
