Companies need to take advantage of new technologies to simplify interfaces, improve capabilities, and enhance back-office processes. But they can't upgrade their Websites too often.
Are technology advances the reason for that frequency of changes, @nathan? It seems a lot of sites seem to follow that scheduling somewhat (at least from the outside looking in); I am wondering what the driver is.
I would say, depending on the kind of site you have; a massive overhaul and change every few months for e-commerce sites, and every year for basic tech/IT companies (SMB). And a major focus on changing the mobile compatible look of your site as often as possible, with new app releases every month or two if possible across the board in all industries.
I'm thinking if the rollout of the feature enhancemenare is executed properly, it should seamless as in nearly unnoticed to the 'user' experience, other than the benefit of that new feature. at least in navigation, perhaps if designed to be intuitive.
not sure why there would be frequent look and feel redesign..
then again, I'm uable to tell you which sites I frequent off of the social grid these days.
