Running a business without a website is like going fishing without any water! It can't be done. Here are 10 reasons why your business needs a website today.
2. 1. Everyone Uses The Internet
People expect to find their favorite
businesses and Organizations online.
If you don't have your own site, other sites
such as Manta, Yelp and others will be
happy to be the 'authority' site on your
business details! Even if they're wrong.
3. 2. Use On Social Media
Social networking websites give you the
chance to connect with potential clients and
customers on platforms they're already
using.
By having your own website, you can
associate your URL on your Fan Pages -
increasing awareness of the goods and
services you offer.
4. 3. Advertising And Promotions
If you're paying for online or offline
advertising, it's essential that you have a
website where interested parties can
Contact you directly, inquire or purchase
your products and services or learn more
about your company.
Your own website provides all of this.
5. 4. Lead In Local Search
If your business doesn't have a website, you
can be sure that your competitors do!
This means if potential clients use a popular
search engine like Google, Bing or Yahoo!
to find a service provider, someone in your
area with a website is more likely to get their
business - not you!
This is a 'missed opportunity!'
6. 5. Increase Your Profits!
Having your own website gives you the
platform to sell products and services online
easily, so you can increase your sales.
In the case of non-profit Organizations, the
ability to easily add a Paypal 'Donate' button
makes it easier for people to contribute to
your cause with little friction.
7. 6. You Never Close!
A website gives you the ability to provide
pertinent information about your business or
Organization at all times, even if you're
physically closed.
Think of your site as being an online
brochure that's always ready to be
distributed to interested visitors.
8. 7. Appeal To A Larger Market
One way to increase your market share and
your profits is by appealing to a larger
market.
If you have products or services that can be
sold to people beyond your local market,
you're missing out on these sales by not
having a website to sell them from.
9. 8. Yellow Pages Are Outdated
Yellow Page ads can still be effective, but
many people rely solely on the Internet to
find information about the businesses they're
interested in.
With your own website you can update
information as needed and share multimedia
such as pictures and videos directly with
your visitors. Interactivity rules!
10. 9. Multimedia Capabilities
Multimedia capabilities allow you to offer
photo galleries or embed videos directly at
your site.
This is perfect for anyone that's been
featured in local media, sponsors events or
just wants to share more about their
business or Organization online.
11. 10. The Future Is Now!
The Internet is no longer a 'new' concept.
If you've been dragging your heels about a
site for your business, there's no time left to
wait!
People are looking for you and if you can't
be found, they'll look for someone else that
can be found online easily.
