Research demonstrates that smaller businesses, by and large, are not maximizing the benefit of internet presence. But those taking advantage of it are really experiencing significant gains.
While most understand the importance of an appealing website and advantages of online presence, they do not make the most of it because computer and communications technology can be complex and even somewhat obscure to general public. Many small businesses, most of which don’t have IT people on staff opt for social media since they think it is easier method.
Unfortunately, those who choose such direction may be missing out on the true value of having one’s own, well-defined space on the Web.
The value of a domain for a small business is far more significant than many realize. It not only provides the basis of independent online presence but can also be used to point to one’s social media sites. A domain also provides you a branded email – a hallmark for ‘real’ business.
Given below are five major reasons how having a website can benefiting your small/local business:
- Get more business! Use your website as a 24 hour marketing tool. It’s fast, easy, and doesn’t require an employee to sit and answer phones.
- Who we are. Use your website to tell people who you are, and what you do. People form their own conclusions about you, so why not give them some solid information to base this conclusion on.
- Show off. Whether you sell a product or a service, no one is going to pay you money without first seeing what you are capable of. The old saying, “a picture is worth a thousand words” never fit better.
- Professionals. Having an attractive website helps to convey to customers that you are a professional business, and gives them more confidence in your capabilities.
- Contact us! Answering phones, although direct, takes time. Having a contact us form on your website allows interested people to inquire about your services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
