Highlighting how simple and inexpensive its service is, the company then directs users to "Buy a Tasting Box" with one highly visible button. Simple as that. We're impressed with this startup's succinct messaging.

Fashism is a fashion site for crowd sourcing opinions on your outfits, or "looks." The site has two simple functions: users can add looks, and they can vote on looks. For those who just want to browse through other users' looks, the "See Looks" section features a feed of uploaded looks that can be voted on. Users simply click "Love it" or "Hate it." It doesn't get much simpler to participate than that.Implementing simple calls to action is an easy way to enable site visitors to interact with content. Of course, the first step is to make sure content is well-targeted, engaging and interesting.
All site owners should be careful to design easy-to-navigate websites. Grahamwich, a sandwich shop owned by chef Graham Elliot, features a simple navigation scheme. The menu items are separated into snacks, sodas and sandwiches, and the restaurant's story is told through a storyboard of what, who, when, where, how and why sections.
Offbeat Mama, a parenting guide for the quirkier moms and dads out there, focuses on creating content that drives conversation. With recent posts revolving about "the drug talk," forcing kids to take lessons and organizing small living spaces for children, the blog maintains an active readership that is excited to comment and throw in their opinions. Creating content that sparks conversation is a must in the world of small businesses.
