A website audit is essentially a health check. It surfaces the small issues before they become big ones: a broken checkout flow, a security vulnerability, a page that quietly dropped off Google’s first page, or a slow-loading homepage that’s costing you conversions. Catching these early is almost always cheaper than fixing the fallout later.

If it’s been a while since you’ve taken a look under the hood, here’s a practical guide for what to check, why it matters, which tools to use, and how we can help. 👉 https://www.intellithought.com/helpful-tips-and-tools-to-audit-your-existing-website/

https://www.intellithought.com/the-hidden-costs-of-off-the-shelf-software/ - Off-the-shelf software often looks inexpensive because its true costs are spread out, hidden, and normalized over time. But for growing businesses, those hidden costs add up, slowly reducing efficiency, flexibility, and control. The real question isn’t whether software is affordable today. It’s whether it will still support where your business is going tomorrow. Intellithought can help you navigate what's needed for custom software tailored to your business.

In 2025, the City of Kingsport approached Intellithought about a website redesign for Bays Mountain Park and Planetarium. We were thrilled to take on a project for one of Kingsport’s favorite spots!

Bays Mountain Park is a 3,750-acre nature park and planetarium. Opened in 1971, it features a 44-acre reservoir, over 40 miles of hiking trails, a nature center with a planetarium theater, a fire tower, and animal habitats.

The redesign scope of work consisted of:

- Responsive layout with brighter colors and modern fonts that complement Bays Mountain’s updated branding.
- A mobile-first approach where users can load the site quickly from their phones, locate content, and get driving directions to the park.
- Events calendar
- Content imports and training of Bays Mountain staff for content updates
- Necessary 301 redirects for pages that had their URL changed during the redesign
